Tisbury voters divided on alcohol sales

TISBURY, Mass. (AP) — Tisbury residents, it seems, are split on whether to allow beer and wine sales at restaurants in town.
Exactly split.
A ballot question on whether to allow sales of alcohol tied 690-690 in Tuesday’s election on the Martha’s Vineyard community.
Town Clerk Marion Mudge says those who want to allow sales of beer and wine have already asked for a hand recount, and that could change the results.
Tisbury is one of more than a dozen towns in Massachusetts towns where there are no liquor stores or bars. Many restaurants do allow customers to bring their own alcohol.
