East Fishkill Democratic Committee

Below are the minutes from the caucus held on Wednesday. Congratulations to Ron Friedman, who was nominated as the Democratic candidate for East Fishkill Town Justice.

A special note of thanks goes to Kelly Hoffay, for all her help and caucus knowledge.

Another note of thanks to Elisa Sumner (Vice-chair of the Dutchess County Democratic Committee) for accepting the invitation to be our Parliamentarian. We started the caucus early and without incident, therefore Ms. Sumner’s services were not needed. I thank her anyway for “making the trip.”
