Muderick, a computer-software architect turned inventor and entrepreneur, came into the council race this summer when a committee of borough Democrats chose him to replace incumbent Councilman Matthew Pettigrew on the ballot. Pettigrew had won the slot in the primary but withdrew from the race the next month.

Celebrating his win with other Lower Merion and Narberth Democrats at McShea’s in Narberth, Muderick agreed his campaign felt “a bit rushed.”

“I got a late start but it was fantastic,” he said. A 10-year resident, he added, “I feel like I’ve gotten to know Narberth so much better in these last months. I was able to put faces to names” — of people who had been e-mailing him on his Narberth news “Narblog” (www.narblog.org) — “and put names to faces” — of people he would see walking around town.
