These 41 Darien residents were elected Tuesday to the 57 seats up for election this year to the Representative Town Meeting. To fill out the remaining 16 positions, caucuses of the members of each of Darien’s six voting districts can meet in a caucus to elect new members, once the chairman of the district caucus holds a meeting. There were two write-in candidates (who didn’t file at the candidate registration deadline but then decided to run) — Christopher Ezbiansky won a seat in District 1 with 26 votes (just over the mandatory minimum of 25 votes for write-in candidates), and Kte Haueisen won a seat in District 5 (she received 43 votes).
