Village of Hoosick Falls Election

by Bea Peterson
Few voters turned out to support the officials that will be running the Village of Hoosick Falls for the next two years. Inclement weather may have deterred some voters. Many others may have considered voting unnecessary since the candidates were running unopposed. Still, it is a little unsettling to know only 2.65 percent of the Village’s 1,923 registered  voters came to the polls.
Village Mayoral candidate David Borge received the most votes, with 51. Ric DiDonato, re-elected for a fourth term as Trustee, received 45 votes.
Former Hoosick Councilman Kevin O’Malley received 47 votes for Village Trustee and former Hoosick Councilman Robert Ryan received 48 votes for Trustee.
