Updated at 11 p.m. (Editor's Note: We originally got the wrong numbers for the first question. It has passed and is now correct in the article. We regret the error. - Paul Singley) 

Naugatuck voters want to cast ballots in November but they want the mayor's term to remain two years.

They also want opponents of budgets to work hard to force referendums and the Town Clerk to be elected.

However, they believe there are certain aspects of the Charter that are antiquated and need to be changed.

All of that was revealed Tuesday night when the results of six ballot questions were revealed. The following are the questions and the results: 

• APPROVED - 5,413 Yes, 4,345 No - Shall the Charter be revised to change the date of the municipal election from the first Monday of May to the first Tuesday after the first Monday of November in odd numbered years thereby extending the terms of the existing municipal office holders from the first Monday in May of 2013 to November of 2013?
