Smithfield recall election today

Voters in Smithfield decide today if their town council president will remain in office.

Critics of Stephen G. Tocco, a Democrat, collected enough signatures to require a recall election after facts emerged surrounding a 1993 trial against Gary Garafano, then deputy public works director in Providence.

During the trial, Tocco, who was an officer of Capitol Police at the time – testified that he delivered bribes to officials in Pawtucket and Providence from the construction company for which he worked.

The polls opened at 7 a.m. and will close at 9 p.m
