Legislative Candidates’ Reactions Differ After Conservative Party No Confidence Vote
The 2017 primary election for the 25th district of Oswego County Legislature initially left newcomer candidate Marc Holliday leading the polls with six votes to incumbent candidate Frank Castiglia Jr.’s four votes in a conservative primary race. Given time to account for absentee ballots, the final results evened the score at a deadlock, each candidate receiving seven votes. According to Oswego County Board of Elections officials, the tiebreaking decision would be left to the Oswego County Conservative Party to discuss and decide through a committee vote. “The Executive Committee of the Oswego County Conservative Party met Thursday (Sept 28) night at its regularly scheduled meeting and the issue of appointing a candidate for the Conservative line for the 25th Legislative district was voted on. The chairman and secretary convened this vote and found that neither candidate was selected. Therefore, there will be no representative for the Conservative Party on this line,” said Ron Greenleaf, Chairman of the Oswego County Conservative Party.
