Southampton Police Reports for the Week of October 30

HAMPTON BAYS — A local resident told Southampton Town Police on October 20 that she had been the target of an attempted fraud scheme. She said she had received a call informing her that she was among nine winners of a multimillion-dollar lottery pool, but that she needed to send in a check for $3,400 to earn her portion of the much greater winnings. She mailed the check and was then told by the fraudsters that it had not arrived and that she should send another, which she did. But after discussing the matter with a family member, she realized ... by Staff Writer

A Sneak Peek at the Election Day Ballot in Southampton Town

The Election Day ballot for Southampton Town voters contains the races for Suffolk County legislator, Southampton Town supervisor and two council seats, the Southampton Town clerk, all five members of the Southampton Town Trustees, the highway superintendent and one of the four town justice seats, as well as uncontested elections for Suffolk County district attorney and Suffolk County sheriff, and two ballot propositions. Early voting polls remain open daily at Windmill Village in East Hampton, Stony Brook Southampton campus in Southampton and at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church in Westhampton Beach until this Sunday, November 2.

We Mark Our Ballots: The Propositions

There are two propositions on the ballot — as always, don’t forget to flip your ballot over! — that deserve attention. The first is a state measure that would clear the way for an Olympic skiing and trail facility on preserved land upstate. We recommend a yes vote, simply because it seems like a sensible use of valuable real estate for the benefit of that region and the entire state. However, the Suffolk County proposition, the second on the ballot, is a clear no. The measure would extend county legislators’ terms from two to four years, something voters have overwhelmingly ... by Editorial Board

We Mark Our Ballot: County Legislature

In an age punctuated by extreme political party divisions and acrimony, it was refreshing to hear from two Suffolk County legislators representing the East End — one a Democrat and one a Republican — about how well they worked together to represent the interests of their varied constituents and pass legislation to benefit all residents, regardless of political affiliation. It was downright astonishing to hear them heap praise upon each other, both personally and politically, during separate interviews with The Express News Group Editorial Board. This at a time when each is facing an active challenger. It became crystal clear ... by Editorial Board

We Mark Our Ballot: Southampton Town

There are precious few choices for Southampton Town voters to make between now and November 4, a sad state of affairs based on well-documented horse trading that took place behind the scenes. The key swap made sure Maria Moore did not face a challenger for a second term as supervisor; in exchange, Charles McArdle, likewise, will cruise to a second term as highway superintendent. That both are doing a terrific job and deserve reelection is some consolation, but local government is always better when voters have choices. That was taken away from them, largely, this year by party leaders — ... by Editorial Board
