Democrats Nominate Karen Glushko for Town Justice
By John T. Ryan
It appears the Town of Peru will have a race to fill its open town justice position in the November elections. The Democratic Party caucused on July 31st and unanimously selected Karen Glushko as their candidate for the position. On August 8th the Town of Peru Republican Committee announced that it unanimously endorsed Larry Cabana for the position. The Republicans will caucus on Tuesday, August 19th at 7 p.m. If Cabana is successful at the caucus, he will face Glushko in the November 4th election.
The town justice position opened when Town Justice John Lawliss resigned in late June citing health reasons. Lawliss served nine years in the position. Judge James Kirby has been handling the court workload for several weeks.
