On October 8, 2014, the League of Women Voters of Larchmont & Mamaroneck hosted a candidates forum at the Town of Mamaroneck Court Room. A tape of the forum is available from LMC-TVs website.
The forum featured candidates vying to represent New York’s 37th Senate District and to serve on the Mamaroneck Village Board of Trustees. Candidates in uncontested elections also made brief presentations.
The following appeared:
US Congress (District 16):
Eliot Engel (Incumbent, Democrat, Working Families)
NY State Senate (37th District):
Joseph Dillon (Republican, Conservative, Independence); George Latimer (Incumbent, Democrat, Working Family)
NY State Assembly (91st District):
Steve Otis (Incumbent, Democrat, Independence, Working Families)
Town of Mamaroneck Council Member:
Thomas Murphy (Incumbent, Democrat)
Village of Mamaroneck Trustee (Elect 3): David Finch (Democrat), Leon Potok (Incumbent, Democrat), Ilissa Miller (Incumbent, Democrat), Michael Ianniello (Republican, Conservative, Independence), Maggie-Leigh O’Neill (Republican, Conservative, Independence), Stefanie Lividini (Republican, Conservative).
To ensure impartiality, the debates were moderated by a LWV member from outside the Larchmont-Mamaroneck area. The order of candidates’ presentations was chosen in advance by drawing lots.
