Meet the Candidates event
As I'd announced earlier, the Dryden Democrats held a Meet the Candidates forum at the Varna Community Center on Wednesday night. Democratic District Attorney candidate Gwen Wilkinson, County Legislator Martha Robertson, and Town Board candidates Paul Lutwak and Mary Ann Sumner spoke about what they hoped to accomplish and the skills they bring to the jobs.
County Legislator Martha Robertson talks about TompkinsRx.
We had unexpected (but pleasant) attendance from the Republican candidates for Town Board, incumbent Steve Stelick and newcomer Dan Tier. While they mostly got to hear from Democratic candidates, they also spoke about what they hope to achieve in the next few years.
District Attorney candidate Gwen Wilkinson (center) talks about prosecution.
Unfortunately, only about eight non-candidates were there, though on the bright side I think that did make it reasonably easy for people to get their questions answered.
