ALBANY – Governor Cuomo
has set April 24 as a special election date for two vacant state legislative
seats.
The 102nd Assembly seat is vacant following the resignation of Peter Lopez
who earlier this year was appointed regional director of the US Environmental
Protection Agency. That district encompasses all or portions of the counties
of Ulster, Greene, Columbia, Delaware, Albany, Otsego and Schoharie counties.
The 37th Senate District seat in Westchester County is vacant following
the resignation of George Latimer, who was elected as Westchester County
executive.
Nine other state legislative slots are also vacant and will be filled
in special elections, also called on April 24.
