Both commission duels provide some suspense

The endorsed Republican candidates prevailed in yesterday's primary for Chester County commissioner, and to oppose them in the general election the Democrats chose two candidates who have experience running countywide. Commissioner Carol Aichele, 57, of Tredyffrin Township, who is running for a second term, led the winning GOP ticket. Her running mate, Terence Farrell, 59, of Lincoln University, a Realtor in his second term as recorder of deeds, also won, though at times he ran neck and neck with Sandy Moser, 64, an anti-sprawl activist from East Brandywine Township.
