Thirty-eight percent of Groton voters trekked to the polls Tuesday to decide several contested races and a controversial school financing package; 2685 people voted out of 7144 eligible voters.

In the Board of Selectmen’s race, incumbents Josh Degen and Stuart Schulman topped challengers Robert Hargraves and Brooks Lyman.

In the School Committee race, Leslie Lathrop and John Giger outpolled George Barringer, Chris Clinton, and Sean McGinty to win initial terms.

In the Board of Assessors race, incumbent Rena Swezey beat out challenger by Gary Green.

In the only financial question on the ballot, the Groton-Dunstable Regional School District Proposition 2½ override failed by 137 votes, 1376 to 1239. The measure would have raised $931,336 to fill a budget gap created by declining state aid. The override was defeated in Dunstable yesterday.
