Wainscott - When the election results come in tonight the parties will be waiting with bated breath as incumbents battle among themselves and two fresh faces in Southampton and two full slates of political newcomers seek positions on the East Hampton Town Board.
 |
After the polls close at 9 p.m. the various local parties will be meeting together to watch the results. |
You can join the Southampton Democrats at Four Seasons in Southampton starting at 7 p.m. or the Republicans at their headquarters on Main Street in Hampton Bays, across from St. Rosalie's Church. In East Hampton, the Democrats will be meeting at Rowdy Hall in East Hampton Village after the polls close and the Republicans will be watching the results at Indian Wells Tavern in Amagansett.
Or, if you're not sure which party to go to, log on to Hamptons.com this evening from 9 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. for live streaming coverage as the results come in. East Hampton's
Bill Fleming will be hosting a roundtable discussion tonight with former editor with the
Press Newspaper Group Peter Boody, East Hampton Village Administrator
Larry Cantwell, author
Tom Clavin, former Southold Supervisor
Josh Horton, former Southampton Town Board member
Steve Kenny, former Riverhead Supervisor
Bob Kozakiewicz and New York State Assemblyman
Fred Thiele.
The panel will be discussing the elections in all five East End towns with real-time analysis as the swing districts report in throughout the evening.
AJ Lynch from East Hampton, NY says:
I couldn't be happier right now with the results I'm seeing in East Hampton. Bill Wilkinson's team, certainly, may prove to be disastrous over the next several years, but at least we can hope they will be able to provide some relief from the fiasco of their predecessors. I can only hope! Ben Zwirn made the comment, apparently following his party's downfall at the polls, that "people are angry". Angry, Mr. Zwirn??? You also said, just prior to Election Day, that neither you nor your running mates were in any way involved in or responsible for the misdeeds of the McGintee administration. Excuse me! It seems to me that those "serving" in our Town's government, when they run for election, aver that they have the experience, knowledge, expertise and wherewithal to serve the people to our benefit. Yet, your party's own members of the Town Board have claimed they "didn't know" what was going on as the Supervisor and his Budget Director improperly manipulated the Land Preservation Fund to cover the Town's general budget expenses. "Didn't know"???? Are we talking about the Federal government...or New York State government here? Surely, the government of a town the size of East Hampton cannot be quite that complex and/or unwieldy as to allow those shenanigans to go on under their 'blind' eyes. Nosiree; your party might not be criminally culpable, ...but ignorant??? Sorry, that doesn't fly... at least not in my opinion. I have to say, too, that I sincerely hope this sort of thing isn't going on with the County Executive's "team"!
