There are some Attleboro elections that are real snoozers. That's a strong possibility this year. When no opponent emerged to unseat Mayor Cathleen DeSimone, that immediately meant turnout would be low and fireworks would be few. At least that's what has happened in the past when the race at the top of the ticket is uncontested. To make matters worse, only a handful of city council and school committee seats are being challenged. Voters in some city wards will have no decisions to make other than choosing five at-large city councilors.
