]]> Carmen Castillo has won the Democratic primary for City Council in Providence’s Ward 9. Castillo now faces Republican Christian Chirino, a Tea Party type libertarian, in the Nov. 29th general election. The winner steps into the seat formerly held by progressive champion, Miguel Luna.

Final Results:

Carmen Castillo 358
Rochelle Lee 312
Hector Jose 302
Jose Severino 146
Reinaldo Catone 76
Onassis Martinez 27

Chirino seems to feel the only legitimate role of government is law enforcement and militarism, a tough sell in any neighborhood much less a working-class neighborhood still reeling from the Bush recession. My guess, that’s a long shot, Chris.
