GOP now in control of both Champaign township offices
CHAMPAIGN – Republicans gained control of both offices in City of Champaign Township on Tuesday, as longtime assessor Brian Christie was re-elected over 23-year-old Democrat Wayne Williams, 3,305 to 2,785, and Pam Borowski upended D'Anne Winston, 3,219 to 2,634.
Borowski's victory means that Republicans have regained the supervisor's office after years under Democrats Linda Cross and Linda Abernathy. The latter chose not to run for a second term.
