Republican Chair:
More Races Likely
For County Board
'A Few Potential Candidates' Will
Run As Independents, Casale Says

COOPERSTOWN – More Republican candidates then initially thought will be challenging Democrats this fall, county Republican Chairman Vince Casale said after Thurday evening's AllOTSEGO.com report on petitions filed.
While it appeared only two county board seats would be contested this fall, the GOP chair said "a few potential candidates" will file independent petitions to challenge Democrats in the Nov. 5 election.
"We're not done yet," Casale said.
While those candidates' names could not appear on the Republican ballot line, they presumably could be endorsed and supported by the GOP County Committee.
