DiMaria Wins Morton Grove Mayor Race

With 16 of 16 precincts reporting, DiMaria has racked up 70 percent of the vote.

 

As vote totals have come in since about 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Dan DiMaria of Morton Grove's Action Party has earned about 70 percent of the vote, with Larry Gomberg, who ran as an independent, with 30 percent. That means DiMaria will become the village's mayor. 

DiMaria also unseated incumbent Mayor Dan Staackmann in the Feb. 26 primary election for the Action Party's nomination. He ran on a platform of economic development, saying he would personally reach out to businesses to invite them to locate in Morton Grove, as well as give the village's professional staff the tools they need to promote economic development.
