several offices in the upcoming election but not until after the
secretary of the committee and member for 35 years resigned in a
dramatic and effective gesture. Also the acting president of the
committee revealed that the reason he was ‘acting president’ was that
the president had resigned by letter 3 days earlier.

addressed the assembly. He recalled a time when people would point to
him and say “that’s what a Democrat looks like.” He pointed out how for
the first time in his memory the town board was split 2 to 2 when the
Republican supervisor recently resigned. Then he unloaded his surprise
package. He referred to the vacancy created when a Republican resigned
and the board was even. In his opinion, this was the time to fight for a
Democratic supervisor. “Let the Republicans be great statesmen and give
in to our candidate for the sake of the town” he suggested.
“Instead of standing firm on their candidate, both Democratic councilmen
yielded… The Republican candidate was elected.

of Rockland Democratic Committee, walked up to the head table, picked up
his things and walked out.
