Larry O'Connor , the incumbent mayor of Brock , was reelected by a margin of just 13 votes over challenger Terry Clayton, who had previously been mayor of the township from 2000 to 2003. The narrow margin resulted in an ongoing judicial recount battle;[ 2] the township used a mail-in voting system in 2010, and when ballots which were postmarked before election day but arrived late were counted, O'Connor's margin of victory was reduced to just three votes.[ 2]
O'Connor voluntarily resigned as mayor on March 28, 2011,[ 3] and the township council subsequently appointed Clayton as the new mayor.[ 4]
