District 7 Without Representation

After Beth Rosenthal Resignation

ROSEBOOM – The county Board of Representatives’ District 7 (Cherry Valley, Middlefield and Roseboom) is without representation until the end of the year after the recent resignation of two-term county Rep. Beth Rosenthal.

Rosenthal, a Democrat elected in 2012 and reelected in 2014, recently moved to the Albany area.  Her home in Roseboom recently sold, so she no longer had an in-county residence.

She served on three committees: Intergovernmental Affairs, Performance Review & Goal Setting, and Solid Waste & Environmental Concerns.

Middlefield Town Supervisor David Bliss, Republican, is running unopposed for the seat in the Nov. 3 election.  His term will begin on Jan. 1.
