Longtime constable ousted in Island Pond vote

ISLAND POND, Vt. (AP) -- Longtime constable Ted Miller, whose ticket-writing efficiency won him widespread notoriety during his 25-year tenure, was ousted Tuesday.

Darren "Bucky" Tardif, a 28-year-old landscaper, outpolled Miller 316 to 268 in Australian ballot voting on Town Meeting Day.

Tardif and others had accused Miller of taking aim on out-of-state drivers, ticketing them so often that word about the citations prompted would-be visitors to steer clear of Island Pond. Miller, 59, says he doesn't care where a car is from, he'll pull it over if the driver has violated the law.

In a separate vote Tuesday, the people of Island Pond voted 299 to 284 to make the constable's job an appointed position instead of an elected position, as it had been.
