"West Gwillimbury Reeve Orville Hughes is the Warden of Simcoe County for 1976. Mr. Hughes, 55, defeated Tecumseth Deputy Reeve Allan Glassford for the post, in an election during county council's 1976 inaugural session Monday. County Clerk George Watson opened nominations for the warden's post and five men were nominated for the post. That left Hughes and Mr. Glassford to run for the post. In a recorded vote, Hughes won handily over Glassford. He polled 45 votes o Glassford's 23. The newly-elected warden was then led to the dias by Midland Reeve Lionel Dion and Bradford Reeve Art Turner, the mover and seconder of his nomination."
