Work
KINGSTON – Ulster County Democratic Elections Commissioner Victor
Work has stepped down from his post. County Committee Secretary Ashley
Dittus cited medical issues and the retirement of his wife, Mary, as his
reasons for leaving the post effective this past Friday.
County party Chairman Frank Cardinale said Work will be missed by the
committee, but he has decided to spend more time with his family.
“He has a lot of things that he wants to do now so he has made the
wise decision to retire; not for us of course, we would love to have him
stay. But, I appreciate everything he has done for us over the years,”
Cardinale said.
The county Democratic Committee will hold a convention on July 27 to select
a new commissioner.
Once the party nomination is made, it will be forwarded to the county
legislature for its approval.
In the meantime, Dittus is serving as the county Democratic commissioner.
