Judge Barbara Wilson has the experience as being a fair, dignified and impartial justice and will be getting my vote in the June 22 primary.
Judge Wilson has served as town justice for over 24 years. Politics has put her in a primary unfairly. Her record in various courts — drug, mental health, veterans and the village — have proven her to be principled, unbiased. She consistently bases her decisions on the law.
Barbara Wilson deserves Democrats, Conservatives and Working Families party members to turn out on June 22 and cast their votes for Judge Wilson.

A Night To RememberAs we prepare to cast our vote in the upcoming election, I feel it important to recall the defining incident in the recent mayoral term and reflect upon it before making any decision. What happened that night was quite simply...
Blight in SightThere is a supervisor named Jay who said Bel-Aire will come down in a day and you will see the beautiful bay, but (five years later) in the light, a terrible sight, all you can see is blight. Jim Dreeben...
Seek To UnderstandWhatever happens with this Marsden vote, I’ll be happy to move on. Did we forget that it’s okay to disagree without being disagreeable? Running our schools is a complex endeavor. The board members are volunteers. They spent countless (thankless) hours...
Meaningful ActionI have recently become aware of the Shinnecock Indian Nation’s efforts to gain access to Coopers Beach in the Village of Southampton. Allowing access should be pursued without hesitation. It would represent a small gesture of acknowledgment and symbolically address...
