Mayor Lou Barletta, a Republican who gained national prominence by targeting illegal immigrants living in this small city, easily won re-election Tuesday to a third term.He defeated a Libertarian candidate, John Medashefski, a coffee shop owner who argued the city should drop its effort to push through a law targeting illegal immigrants.
With 82 percent of precincts reporting, Barletta had 2,593 votes, or 89 percent, compared with Medashefski’s 323 votes, or 11 percent.
