McGuire Announces Candidacy for Town Council

HARTWICK—Hartwick resident and experienced public servant Sarah McGuire has officially announced her candidacy for one of two town council seats to be filled in the upcoming November 2025 election. According to a press release, she will be running on the Common Sense Party line, “bringing a practical, solution-driven approach to town government.”

With more than 13 years of local government experience—including approximately eight years serving the Town of Hartwick—McGuire has a background in municipal operations, financial accountability and policy development. She holds a bachelor’s degree in applied science with a concentration in governmental accounting and has worked extensively in both public and private sector finance.

“Budgeting, procedures and planning aren’t just my strengths—they’re what I truly enjoy,” said McGuire. “I believe good governance starts with strong fiscal management, clear policies and a proactive approach to the infrastructure challenges we face, all grounded in common sense.”
