Warren County Republicans celebrate their Election Day sweep

By Thom Randall thom@suncommunitynews.com

GLENS FALLS — In a raucous electionnight party held in the Queensbury Hotel, hundreds of the G.O.P. faithful celebrated the success of their candidates.

The celebration focused on the landslide win by incumbent U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik,

while televisions in the hotel’s ballroom broadcasting the news that Trump was winning one state after another, the vote count foreshadowing his impending grip on the U.S. presidency.

State Sen. Betty Little, state Assemblyman Dan Stec and Queensbury at-large supervisor Rachel Seeber and Ted Wilson, Republican candidate for Warren County Family Court Judge, preceded Stefanik onstage.

Seeber said that Elise worked hard to meet the needs of her constituents, and that she understood the concerns of hardworking people who work long hours to “pay taxes and pay more taxes,” and that Stefanik works hard to make sure those dollars are spent wisely..

“She fights for us,” Seeber said.

Stec congratulated Stefanik and said he would work hard on behalf of both election

State awards $200,000 for broadband efforts

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

ATHOL — Thurman’s local government has finally received reimbursement for the state grant bankrolling their “white space” broadband access project that has brought wireless internet connectivity to dozens of households.

Thurman was awarded a state Connect NY Broadband Grant of $200,000 in 2013 to broadcast data signals over unused electromagnetic frequencies between old analog television channels.

But the grant payment took years to materialize.

The public-private partnership to bring broadband to the remote mountainous area received a statewide award for its success in bringing affordable, reliable internet access to Thurman.

The project also received national attention for its potential to provide broadband for similar rural, sparsely settled communities across the nation. >> See WHITE SPACE | pg. 13

Warren County to spend more, but most local citizens’ taxes will decrease Proposed spending plan comes in under the cap

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

QUEENSBURY — Although Warren County government will be spending 1.04 percent more money on its expenses in 2017 and increasing the tax levy by 1.56 percent to $42.4 million, most county taxpayers will experience a tax decrease next year.

This favorable disparity is because the assessed value of Warren County has increased this year by 2.77 percent to $10.89 billion, with the increase in taxes being shouldered by property that is valued higher.

A person with a home assessed at $150,000 will pay about $5.70 less in county taxes in 2016 on the average, with individual municipalities’ equalization rates determining tax bills, according to county assistant administrator JoAnn McKinstry.

Property owners in the towns of Warrensburg, Chester, Thurman, Horicon, Stony Creek, Johnsburg, Hague, Lake Luzerne and Queensbury and the city of Glens Falls are likely to see a decrease in county taxes of about 1 percent, while taxpayers in Lake George, and Bolton are likely to see increases of a similar amount.

The Warren County Board of Supervisors tentatively adopted the $150.1 million budget Nov. 4.

The spending plan complies with the state tax cap, as it has in years past. The budget is subject to a public hearing at the board’s regular monthly meeting on Nov. 18.

Appropriations for health insurance, tourism promotion and wages are to increase by $593,000, $695,000 and $444,000 respectively. The latter includes pay raises of 2 percent for non-union employees.

County Budget Officer Frank Thomas said at the Nov. 4 county meeting that county officials will be considering utilizing self-insurance in the future.

Decreases include $561,000 less on social services, $279,000 less on employee retirement.

Queensbury At-Large Supervisor Rachel Seeber questioned the whether the raises were subjected to appropriate review of work performance. She also suggested that the board consider privatizing the airport, as Rich Schemerhorn has proposed.

Evelyn Wood expressed concern over a move by the board of supervisors to shift

$50,000 in appropriations from the general fund — and using occupancy tax instead — for combatting invasive species.

The change allowed restoration of a pending cut to funding for East Field, which had dismayed Glens Falls supervisors.

“I felt this move was a shell game,” Wood said, adding that occupancy tax should be dedicated to promoting events in the county, as has been traditional. She had attempted to have the change tabled, but was outvoted.

Wood also warned that expenses ought to be trimmed across the budget, so the county doesn’t experience any sudden financial crises as it did in 2009 when county revenues plunged.

“Everyone should be willing to tighten their belts a little,” she said Monday.

The budget draws $4.26 million from various county fund balances, which Thomas warned wasn’t sustainable in the long run.

He suggested that county officials continue to devise and employ efficiencies to cut costs; to aggressively seek out new revenues, including grant funds; to anawhen county job posiNorth Country Outreach Center benefit lyze, tions become vacant, whether they are essential and to exslated for Dec. 5 JOHNSBURG — The Annual Ladies Library Luncheon plore options for the sale of the undeveloped property to benefit the North Country Outreach Center will be held again this year at the Inn at Gore Mountain on Dec. 5 at next to Rte. 9 near the county noon.

SECOND TERM Stefanik, 32, made history in 2014 when she became the youngest woman ever elected to Congress.

Congresswoman Elise Stefanik stands with New York State Sen. Betty Little as she accepted her re-election to the U.S. House of Representatives Nov. 8 at the Queensbury Hotel.

Widely viewed as a rising political star, Stefanik immediately shot to the front of the GOP pack with her sunny demeanor, social media savvy and wonkish policy chops.

While the lawmaker came under heavy criticism by Derrick for support of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, who defeated Hillary Clinton early-Wednesday, it didn’t appear to jeopardize her effort to win a second term in the state’s largest congressional district.

Stefanik scored an even larger victory than in 2014, when

GLENS FALLS — Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) has handily won her bid for re-election.

With 99 percent of districts reporting shortly after 11 p.m. on Tuesday, Stefanik carved out a decisive 35 point victory, notching 63 percent of the vote to Mike Derrick’s 28 percent — nearly doubling her margin of victory in 2014.

“Two years ago, we made history right here, and then we made good on our promises to bring new ideas and a new generation of leadership to deliver results on behalf of the constituents of our district,” said Stefanik, who gathered with supporters at the Queensbury Hotel in downtown Glens Falls, the same venue where she celebrated wins in the hard-fought Republican primary and general election in 2014.

Stefanik won all 12 counties in the district, according to the state Board of Elections.

Derrick, a retired army colonel from Peru, conceded around 11:15 p.m.

“It didn’t turn out the way we wanted it. But listen, I offer my congratulations to Elise Stefanik. She ran a tough campaign,” Derrick told supporters at the American Legion Post 20 in Plattsburgh.

To volunteers: “You have been the fuel on which this campaign has been running,” he said.

Mike Derrick conceded the race shortly after 11:15 p.m. on Nov. 8.

Green Party candidate Matt Funiciello received 4.3 percent of the vote.

National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Greg Walden congratulated Stefanik shortly after she declared victory.

“Congratulations to Elise Stefanik on her victory this evening,” Walden wrote in a statement. “Elise has been a strong leader for the 21st District, fighting to secure millions of dollars for Fort Drum, successfully working to repeal devastating portions of Obamacare, and leading the Millennial Task Force to identify the issues that matter most to younger generations.

I am confident Elise will continue her important work fighting for 21st District families.”

she bested Democratic challenger Aaron Woolf by 20 points.

Polls closed shortly after 9 p.m. in New York.

In the presidential race, Hillary Clinton, a Democrat, bested Donald Trump 58 to 37 percent in New York.

Despite clinching the statewide win, voters in the 21st Congressional District overwhelmingly went for Trump. >> See STEFANIK | pg. 4

The Manhattan-based political novice bested Clinton in every county except for Clinton, where the former secretary of state carved out a razor-thin win of less than one percentage point: 45.90 to 44.99 percent — or 265 votes out of 26,627.

THE FINAL DAY Stefanik began Election Day in Plattsburgh, where she joined volunteers in waving signs at morning commuters on Cornelia Street, a busy commercial strip.

The lawmaker cast her ballot in Willsboro later that morning, where she met with a group of local voters and officials at the Willsboro Visitors Center.

“This is an incredibly important election,” Stefanik told reporters after emerging from the red and blue curtains where she filled out her ballot.

Expand Voting was brisk through the region — “It wouldn’t surprise me at all if we had a record turnout today,” said Clinton County Republican Election Commissioner Greg Campbell — and polling places across Essex County appeared to be packed all morning.

Stefanik noted the high turnout and said participation was vital this election cycle.

Asked if she was worried about partisanship should she return to office, Stefanik stressed her bipartisan voting record.

“I am going to work with whoever is the next president,” Stefanik said. “I hope I can lead by example.”

The campaign’s GOTV effort launched in June, and ultimately knocked on 15,000 doors and made 267,000 phone calls — slightly more than half of the district’s 406,198 active voters.

“I enjoyed reaching out to hundreds of voters in this district,” Stefanik said, providing a tally of calls made by her team.

Some 20 miles north, Derrick, accompanied by his wife and children, entered the St. Augustine Church in Peru, in Clinton County, and cast their ballots.

“It’s been a wonderful experience,” Derrick said. “It is an honor to be able to run for office.”

Mike Derrick voted at St. Augustine’s Church in Peru on Tuesday, Nov. 8. “It’s been a wonderful experience,” Derrick said. “It is an honor to be able to run for office.”

Green Party candidate Matt Funiciello is pictured here with his father, John, at the Rock Hill Bakehouse in Glens Falls on March 12, 2016.

Derrick announced his candidacy in July 2015, branding himself as a freshly retired army colonel with a desire to continue to his public service where he spent his formative years before enlisting in the service.

The first-time candidate said he had no regrets.

“We have run a campaign with heart,” Derrick said. “We feel nothing but optimism going forward. We have put in all the hard work. What’s humbling is the number of people who believe in me as a candidate.”

Derrick, who just capped off a frenzied stretch of campaigning, said he didn’t have a favorite moment from the trail, but highlighted a group of people who made his effort memorable.

“There are two categories of people — my schoolmates and my old teachers,” Derrick said. “I loved it when old schoolmates would come up to me and say, ‘Hey Mike, I’m pulling for you.’ Or when my old school teachers, some of whom are pushing 80, would come and make phone calls for me.”

Funiciello voted in Hudson Falls, and offered an update shortly before noon.

“I just voted for Jill Stein, (US. Senate candidate) Robin Wilson, Matt Funiciello and (State Senate candidate) Steve

Ruzbacki,” Funiciello wrote on Facebook, noting he “loved” fellow Green Party state Assembly hopeful Robin Barkenhagen, his pal who no longer lives his district.

“Hope you’ll join me in supporting real change this Election Day!” Funiciello said. “Democracy not controlled by the two corporate war parties is a beautiful thing! See you all at the party!”

Funiciello spent much of Election Day engaging with voters (and critics) on his campaign’s Facebook page, which boasts over 5,000 subscribers.

Election officials across the region reported high turnout and few problems.

“It’s been a totally normal election,” said Essex County GOP Election Commissioner Alison McGahay.

LONG SLOG For Funiciello and Derrick, challenging Stefanik was an uphill battle.

with voters and make a convincing argument why the freshman lawmaker shouldn’t be returned to the seat, which has trended purple in recent years.

The candidate lagged far behind in fundraising — Stefanik ultimately raised $2.9 million to his $1.1 million — and kept the press at length, eschewing press conferences and policy positions in favor of flying under the radar, seldom advertising public appearances.

Instead, Derrick often spoke of holding court in voter living rooms and on the campaign trail, and estimated he put 52,000 miles on his vehicle by the end of the race.

It wasn’t until the waning weeks of the campaign that Derrick broadened his attacks past the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which he said Stefanik supported by her vote to fast-track, and her support of Trump, both of which became unshakeable bedrocks of his campaign.

In mid-October, after Trump made now-infamous comments about assaulting women, a super PAC announced an $450,000 ad buy to shore up support for Republican House members.

Derrick then unleashed a series of broadsides against Stefanik.

The freshman lawmaker misrepresented her bipartisan record, he argued, largely when it came to her accomplishments, veterans issues and stances on health care and the environment.

Stefanik, he said, was the consummate Washington, D.C. insider after spending a decade-plus in the nation’s capital following her graduation from Harvard and stint as GOP Policy Director for the 2012 Republican Party National Convention.

But Stefanik largely cruised above the turbulence, never directly attacking either opponent, instead leaving the work to her team, who relentlessly took Derrick apart, painting him as aloof, hammering him for not reading defense legislation; for his support of the Affordable Care Act, and for relocating from Colorado to run for office.

A late-summer “results tour” saw the lawmaker politicking across the district, touting her bipartisan record, work ethic and transparency as her main case for re-election — and was on-message, even relentlessly so.

Only when pressed at debates did she criticize Derrick — in one memorable exchange, she roped him into endorsing her Pell Grant legislation — or depart from her largely-positive persona.

Through it all, Derrick hammered Stefanik for her support of Trump.

It wasn’t until the debates, held throughout October, that Stefanik offered a full-throated rebuttal of Trump’s antiwomen, anti-Muslim rhetoric, arguing that she would continue to speak out against the controversial candidate, and she looked forward to working with Republican commander-in-chief.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) cast her ballot at the Willsboro Visitors Center on Tuesday, Nov. 8.

(Stefanik did not attend the GOP convention in Cleveland this summer, and avoided mentioning Trump by name.)

Late in the campaign, Derrick also began criticizing the role of money in politics, branding himself as fire-breathing populist in the vein of Bernie Sanders, the vanquished Democratic presidential candidate who carved out sweeping margins during the primary race, beating Clinton in all 12 counties in the district, before ultimately losing the

nomination.

TEAM GREEN Funiciello admitted he was a longshot — and acknowledged the wind was at Stefanik’s back — but maintained throughout the race that only a working class resident who >> See CONGRESS | pg. 14

A time for redemption

’m writing this column Sunday evening, as I do every week. We have one more day of a campaign that has been far too long and far too nasty.

As you read this I assume we all know the election results, provided it wasn’t so close that the results are being challenged and the wait continues for a new administration.

One question that arises frequently during every election is why The SUN doesn’t endorse candidates, as so many other newspapers do?

We take stands on issues in need of solutions but when it comes to voting on candidates we believe no one but you should make that decision.

Swaying your opinion based on our opinion is one of the biggest problems our nation faces.

Your vote is highly personal and it’s based on many factors that may only exist for you and your set of circumstances.

We see our role as an honest broker of information and we hope you feel we provide both sides equal opportunity.

We wish more media companies respected their role in the process by letting you know up front that their coverage will lean left or right so you know you’re only getting one side’s view and not a balanced perspective.

It is my belief that this election will have an even greater outcome than just electing or re-electing our government officials.

I think this election may have an affect on many of our institutions as an outcome of what was a painful and at many times an ugly commentary on the state of our nation’s electoral process.

Many of our institutions will need to redeem themselves in the eyes of the American public starting at the top. Regardless of who becomes the president, she or he will need to prove that vicious attacks presented during the campaign were either fact or fiction. Either will have ample chance to redeem their reputation or confirm the attacks to have been accurate.

I could see both political parties, congress and perhaps even the media changing the way they operate and passing new laws to insure the public never has to choose between two flawed candidates, nor have so much money and media influence affecting the process.

As citizens we need to learn from what we’ve been through and demand better from those who have such a great affect on our daily lives and progress we make as a nation.

It’s in everyone’s best interest to make America great and stronger if we work together.

The alternative is more divisiveness, grid lock, investigations and frustration all around.

EDITORIAL

What a wild ride W

ell, that was fun.

Donald Trump pulled off the unthinkable — sweeping to victory over Hillary Clinton in what was easily the nastiest presidential race in modern history.

Trump’s campaign shattered the conventions of politics and now, like the rest of America, it’s going to take us awhile to process what it all means and determine if our deeply divided country can be stitched back together.

But here are some of our immediate takeaways.

We’re all losers here. The race was a prolonged exercise in unprecedented hostility. No taboo issue was left untouched this cycle, from petty name-calling to allegations of fraud and deep-rooted corruption. The attacks on race, gender and ethnicity became an accepted part of the national vernacular, and are now rooted in the modern political playbook. What did we learn from this? Ugliness sells, and we’re all less civilized as a result. How do we combat the dark art of divisiveness? It remains a dangling question mark.

The road less traveled. The two major party candidates were the most reviled in modern history. But on the flipside, people still tend to short-circuit when that binary choice is confronted, and they’re faced with a third choice. Voters ultimately chose to tread down the path of familiarity. Perhaps the third-party candidates were imperfect, but without sending that strong message, this repeat will undoubtedly happen again.

This can’t be repeated. Donald J. Trump reactivated a chunk of the American population who have long felt left behind. They’re right to feel that way, and we don’t blame them for lashing out against a political system that has fed them bromides for generations. But it is Trump’s responsibility now to reach out and make substantiate inroads to bridge those redhot divisions — including mending fences with liberal voters and a generation of Millennials who fell in line with Bernie Sanders calling for lower college tuition and more taxes on the rich. And the other side can’t fall into a echo chamber of the alt-media, a feverish swamp of conspiracy theories and obstructionism at all costs. The two party’s must rebuild, and not ignore the lessons learned in this election — that hate and rancor is the fast lane to the gutter, and should not win elections.

People really hate the press. The media has long been a punching bag, and we’re used to battle-tested politicians bashing us, but also relying on us to convey their message. It’s a symbiotic relationship, and we’re generally okay with that. But these attacks have escalated into threats of violence on reporters during this election. This is not okay — it’s never okay. But the national media

does need to reevaluate their policies now that the smoke has cleared. The cable news formula of 24-7 blanket coverage paired with a revolving lineup of partisan talking heads spewing platitudes probably played a role to get us where we are today, a nation pitted against itself. We simply cannot let them further sow these artificial decisions.

Run for office. While there are national issues that have massive effects — like the Affordable Care Act, for instance, or climate change — there are many issues that are equally important at the local level. One of the biggest discrepancies we’ve observed during this election cycle is how passionate some people can be for national politics, but have little appetite for state and local issues. While mundane issues like budgets, tax caps, emergency services and land use policy are less-sexy, they are a big deal, and leadership is sorely needed on those topics. The most accountable and best government is at the local level. We encourage anyone who feels passionately about politics at any level to throw their hats into the ring.

LETTERS

GetÊ aÊ thickerÊ skin To the Editor: In response to a recent letter from Paula Hubert! I was amazed, reading your story concerning your time as deputy town clerk. The town clerk must have thought very highly of you and your abilities, to ask you to be her deputy.

Before I could or would comment on the events leading up to your removal from the position of deputy town clerk, I would first talk to every one involved. At which point I would be able to offer a comment. But as a resident of the Town of Thurman, before I started investigating I would say ‘this is none of my concern.’ I would only hope that the town supervisor and the town board would ensure that nothing was done improper. Did you make a complaint at the time?

Now since, you have found it necessary to speak for me. You could have called me, or talked to me at a board meeting. You did not. The reason I have

A

written these letters started, because the town supervisor Ms. Wood refused to let me speak. I guess you missed that! I started to see, some could speak others could not. This should bother everyone not just me!

You say the reason I have written these letters seems to be in revenge. Again you are wrong, A few letters does not represent revenge. I have not written about any town highway position, perhaps in a future letter.

Now a few thoughts about my letters, you wouldn’t believe how many people tell me “nice letter” or “great job” or “boy you really tell it like it is” and “keep up the good work!”

Now if my letters have upset the folks on the other side of the aisle, I say to bad, what are you so worried about another one of my letters. They need a thicker skin.

Thank you.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

DentalÊ hygieneÊ important To the Editor: I am remiss in not getting this message in the paper during October, National Dental Hygiene month!

I composed a message a while back regarding my success with my teeth after being away for so long from a dentist’s office.

After seeing all the candy that these Halloween trick or treaters had in their pails, it makes me wonder just how many kids will end up with nasty teeth and gum disease?

It is so important to take care of your teeth at an early age. We sometimes think that there is no need to really worry about it – they will lose their first teeth anyway and new ones will come in!

I had, and am still having great success with Adirondack Dental Health Associates. Bring your kids to the office for routine check-ups. Teach them at an early age not to be afraid of the dentist office!

They will thank you later on in life that they can sit down and eat a t-bone steak or a crisp apple just fallen from the tree! This doesn’t work so well when you have to wear dentures or partials! There is nothing like having your own teeth!

Please consider taking both your kids and yourselves to see Dr. Dean Cook and his staff at Adirondack Dental Health Associates. It is a painless procedure and they will do their best to make visiting the dentist a trip not to be feared! Won’t you call today and make your appointment – you will be so thankful you did – I certainly am!

ThurmanÊ troublemakersÊ habituallyÊ disruptive To the Editor, Keith Parent, who recently was booed in the Post Star’s “Boos and Bravos,” is one of Don Lehman’s trouble makers.

Being “booed” by the Post Star for his juvenile and rude behavior at the “Thurman Meet the Candidates” night he, among others of that group, are habitually disruptive during town meetings to the extent that the Town Board has been forced to discontinue privilege of the floor for a while.

When we have privilege of the floor, everyone gets a turn to speak, there are no favorites as he has stated, there is no picking and choosing of who gets to speak, anyone with their hand up gets called on.

Now because of him and his disruptive friends, privilege of the floor has been suspended and he is the first and the loudest to complain, accusing the board of interfering with his right to speak.

Parent is sympathetic to Mike Eddy, who received a boo from the Post Star this past January and continues in his letters to attack the rest of the Thurman Town Board.

He states that discussion does not occur, but it is apparent that the majority of the board have researched agenda items based on their discussion and when Eddy comes to the meeting ill prepared, does not have any input or questions that are relevant to the topic and continually votes no or abstains, the others cannot be held responsible to spoon feed him.

I have been at many meetings where Parent has been called on to speak, the first time being a complaint that he did not get hired for a Town High-

way position and other times where he is complaining about issues that are irrelevant to the evening’s agenda but he is still called upon as all others who raise their hands.

COMMENTARY

Don’t encase your children in Bubble Wrap

WorkÊ of Ê AmericanÊ LegionÊ lauded To the Editor: Men and women of American Legion 1619: As Director of the US Department of Veterans Affairs National Viral Hepatitis Program, I want to let you know how grateful I and my fellow clinicians in VA are for your tremendous accomplishments in organ-izing and executing not one but two events this year to test your fellow Veterans for hepatitis C (HCV). Your groundbreaking work has deservedly received national attention because of its potential to help save the lives of Veterans across the Nation affected by this life-threatening illness.

As we all know, HCV afflicts Veterans far more than the general population. For many years, the available treatments for HCV were less likely to work than a flip of a coin and had serious side effects that were life threatening in their own right. Until a couple of years ago, less than a quarter of all Veterans with HCV receiving care in VA had been treated and less than half of those had been cured.

The availability of new, more effective, and much less toxic HCV treatments has changed all that. Be-tween January 2014 and September 2016, 71,000 Veterans with HCV in VA care – almost twice as many as were treated in all previous years combined – have received these new drugs, with cure rates of over 92 percent. These Veterans are much less likely to develop liver failure or liver cancer, and as a result will live longer, healthier lives.

The fight against this disease is by no means over. Nationally, there are tens of thousands of Veterans receiving care from the VA and hundreds of thousands outside the VA system who harbor HCV but don’t know it. We can cure them – but only if we can find them.

That’s where your efforts are critical. Led by your commander, Mike Rock, and your Medical Informa-tion Officer, Danny Kaifetz, your post has pioneered a brilliant tactic for bringing Veterans in to provide HCV testing and offer information about diagnosis, treatment, and cure. Working together with the American Legion, the VA, regional medical centers such as Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital and the University of Vermont Medical Center, and state and local health departments such as the New York State Department of Health can link Veterans and others screening positive for HCV to high-quality care.

It is no exaggeration to say that Post 1619 is providing overwatch for your fellow Veterans. Your work has been highlighted in briefings to VA leaders and to Congress, and I strongly believe that it can be developed into a national model that will help eradicate HCV among Veterans. Thank you for all you are doing, and for the honor of helping support your efforts.

I

doubt that I would see eye-toeye on any political topic with Leslie Kendall Dye, but we are muy simpatico when it comes to child-raising philosophy. Dye writes in the Washington Post that she’s tired of busybodies warning that her daughter is about to be maimed.

Dye is more tactful and calls the free advice dispensaries “worried strangers” but we know what they are: Childhood killjoys, exuberance extinguishers and professional hall monitors. These are people who are experts on raising your child and not in the least reluctant to share their wisdom.

Even though she knows letting her daughter enjoy childhood is the correct policy, Dye is still defensive: “She scales rocks and swings from gates.

She leaps over six concrete steps to the pavement below. Sometimes I wish for a less active child but I remind myself that this trait - this athleticism - will serve not just her body but her mind as she develops.”

That reasoned explanation never occurred to me. I just liked watching Karl sail through the air.

I recall a family cruise where the dining room was located four or five decks below our room. Taking each stair individually slowed him down, so Karl would leap from landing to landing like Ricochet Rabbit.

My job was to make sure the coast was clear and prevent collisions with elderly passengers who gave him astonished looks as he rocketed by.

Even before he learned to fly Karl eschewed normal stair etiquette.

When we moved into the house where Karl grew up he was still crawling. There were stairs into the basement and stairs leading up to the second floor where his bedroom was located. I should have done the responsible Dad thing and installed one of those mini-cellblock gates to keep him from tumbling down.

But before I got around to it, he solved the problem. Karl would crawl to the edge of the stairs wearing his onesie - if it was winter he would wear two, Janet called it double-bagging - then make his body rigid and slide down feet first on his belly like a human surfboard. He could even negotiate the turn at the bottom without stopping.

When Dye’s daughter was a toddler she “had to run her like a Labrador to burn through her extra energy.” I have an idea I came to parenting later than Dye did so I used a combination of technology and subterfuge to tire Karl.

Again prior to walking, Karl got around the house pushing a FisherPrice plastic scooter. Evidently this form of locomotion so dangerous its manufacture was subsequently banned.

To me the best feature of the scooter was a compartment with a flip-up blue lid. I filled the box with rolls of quarters, dimes and nickels then sealed the lid with duct tape. A few hours pushing that 20lb bale and he was ready for bed.

Dye’s daughter is very fortunate.

She has a mother who is strict when it comes to manners and permissive when it comes to play. Today it takes a strong, confident parent to raise a child like that. Dye’s next test will be when her daughter becomes a teenager.

I’m hoping she hangs tough on manners.

KennethÊ AdamsÊ Murray NORTH RIVER — Kenneth Adams Murray, age 90, passed away peacefully on Monday, Oct. 31 at the Glens Falls Memorial Hospital.

Ken was born in Syracuse, NY. He attended the Hill School in Pottstown, PA, and graduated Psi Upsilon from Cornell University in 1949 with a degree in mechanical engineering.

Ken married the love of his life (Sarah Wallace Murray, Cornell ‘50) in 1950 and settled down in Upstate NY where he worked for Rome Cable in Rome, NY. After he and Sally grew to a family of six with four beautiful children, he moved his family to Poughkeepsie, NY and later Westfield, NJ where he worked in sales for IBM. Over the years, Ken and Sally and their children spent summers and winters enjoying the trails of Gore Mountain and the beautiful waters of Lake George. Ken, with the help of a few friends and his son Douglas, built a cozy ski chalet in North River, NY. Over many years, the family enjoyed weekend get-aways and became avid skiers. Ken continued to carve up the trails well into his late seventies.

While at Lake George, Ken could be found on the tennis court, lounging on the dock with friends and family or nose-deep into a new book. He was an enthusiastic reader and always had two or three books going at once.

In 1991, Ken and Sally retired to their ski chalet in North River, where they led a very active lifestyle that in-

cluded kayaking, hiking, bird-watching, traveling with friends, and local involvement with the church and theatre group.

He was a charter member of the Our Town Theater Group, a charter member of the Upper Hudson Musical Association, a member of the North Creek Rotary and a Chairman of Trustees of the North Creek United Methodist Church.

At the age of 81, Ken was looking for a new challenge. He studied diligently and sat for the NY state Board of Realtors exam and became a New York State Licensed Realtor. After a year in the business, he purchased Garnet Hill Realty from a local colleague and was off and running with a new career. He was passionate about running his own business and became an outstanding realtor in Warren County.

He is survived by his daughter Sarah Murray White, of Annapolis, MD, son Stephen Adams Murray of New York, NY, daughter Louisa Dean Murray (husband Lonn Livengood) of Alstead, NH, grandson Cameron White of Denver, CO, granddaughter Margot White of Annapolis, MD, granddaughter Chelsea Nicola of Charlestown, NH, grandson Nicholas Preston of Alstead NH and granddaughter Anna Preston of Alstead NH. Ken is predeceased by his wife, Sarah Wallace Murray; son, Douglas Wallace Murray; father, William Hallam Gillis Murray; mother, Elisabeth Morss Murray; and brothers, Hallam Gillis Murray and Dwight Morss Murray.

A family celebration of his life will be held in his honor at his family home in Ticonderoga next summer.

EYE ON THE ARTS

W

alter Cronkite, born this month in 1917, once said that he “can’t imagine a person becoming a success who doesn’t give this game of life “everything he’s got.”

That line of thinking certainly translates to the art world.

To use the music industry as an example; though there is now a fast-track to recognition in the form of televised competitions — spinning red chairs, that’s all I’ll say — a majority of music careers are still defined by the artist’s ability to fight tooth and nail for their relevance.

Musicians, artists and writers all share this problem.

Their career isn’t necessarily something you can apply for and keep by doing a good job. It’s an ongoing struggle. A labor of love.

At the end of the day, local artists, musicians and writers have it the hardest: it’s extraordinarily difficult to draw fans to your shows when you play the same circuit every month. But local artists are the lifeblood of a community. Every town or city that hopes to be a cultural epicenter for their region needs them.

That’s why it’s so important to show up to local events and support the arts in your area — attendance is a vital piece of having a robust local economy.

Support your community and your local artists by attending an event this week: Fort Ticonderoga will host a

living history event on Nov. 12 surrounding the withdrawal of German and British soldiers from the fort in 1777. Activities are planned all day, beginning at 10 a.m. until its closing at 4 p.m. Admission is $20. For more information, or to see the full schedule, visit fortticonderoga. org.

The Clinton Community College Drama Club will perform the 2003 Jeff Whitty hit “Avenue Q” from Nov. 17-20 at the Stafford Theatre in Plattsburgh.

“Avenue Q” is a raunchy comedy that features loud, rambunctious puppets. Showtimes are Nov. 1719 at 7:30 p.m. and Nov. 20 at 5 p.m. Tickets are $15. For more information, visit facebook.com/ clintoncommunitycollege.

Local folksingers Dan Berggren and Alex Smith will perform at the Whallonsburg Grange on Nov. 12. The duo will perform originals and old favorites from 7:30-9 p.m. Tickets are $12. For more information, visit thegrangehall.info.

The Courthouse Gallery in Lake George will open a new exhibit by Fabien Lopez on Nov. 12.

The exhibit, titled “A Certain Romance,” features works by Lopez with an abstract style. “A Certain Romance” will be on display until Dec. 16. The opening reception is slated for Nov. 12 at 4-6 p.m.

Admission is free. For more information, call 668-2616 or visit lakegeorgearts.org.

On Nov. 19, the ROTA Gallery and Studio in Plattsburgh

will continue the fight to keep their doors open with an art exhibit and fundraiser. ROTA will display works by artists from all around the region. Entry is free.

Doors open at 3 p.m. For more information, contact rotagallery@gmail.com or visit facebook.com/rotagallery.

Tambourelli & Her SuperTrips will perform at the 190 Grille & Cinema in Glens Falls every Saturday in November. Admission is free.

Admission is free. The talk is slated for 7:30 p.m. For more information, call 962-8717.

The UpRiver Cafe in Lake Luzerne will host “Epicurious,” a celebration of food and art, on Nov. 19. The cafe will serve food and display food-related art from regional artists.

Election results point toward shakeup on Thurman town board

By Thom Randall thom@suncommunitynews.com

ATHOL — Mirroring the unexpected outcome of the U.S. residential election, the political landscape in the town of Thurman may have experienced an earthquake on Election Day. Two candidates challenging incumbents for their positions on the Thurman town board — and have in the past voiced criticism of the board’s actions — won by considerable margins. The races involved two separate special elections to fill unexpired terms on the board.

The election-day vote tally will change as absentee ballots are counted this next week — 58 were sent out, and as of Tuesday, 50 were returned. Absentee votes, however, generally follow the trend of the election day results.

Votes cast on Election Day favored former Thurman Town Clerk Cynthia Hyde 306 to 260 over incumbent town board member Susan Shepler for a three-year seat.

Shepler has held her council position since January, when she was appointed to the board after the resignation of former board member Dan Smith.

Kathy Templeton, a baker and former Adirondack Journal news correspondent, received 311 votes, in contrast to 249 for town board incumbent Gail Seaman, a registered nurse, for a one-year seat. Seaman has served as town board member since Jan. 2013.

In her campaign, Templeton questioned the board’s financial management and the revocation of privilege of the floor, which was prompted by public outbursts over the past several years. Templeton also called for more transparency and public discourse on the issues.

Cynthia Hyde, who served as Thurman Town Clerk for eight years, campaigned on the same issues, saying she would bring “teamwork, respect, transparency and integrity” back to board meetings in her recent statement to the press.

Hyde ran for Thurman town supervisor unsuccessfully last year against incumbent supervisor Evelyn Wood. In that same election cycle, Templeton ran for town clerk, but lost to Jeanie Sprague.

Both Templeton and Hyde have expressed viewpoints parallel to incumbent board member Michael Eddy, who has routinely cast votes opposing the other four board members on everything from new initiatives to routine business matters.

The new makeup of the town board, as of January, brings into question whether the board will take a new direction beginning in 2017.

Hyde said she and Templeton visited 149 households in her campaigning.

“I listened to people’s concerns, and it all paid off,” she said. “Kathy and I are ready to work hard for the people of Thurman.”

Templeton said she would strive to live up to her supporters’ expectations.

“There will be many things the town board needs to consider in the future, and together we can achieve them,” she said. “I will do my best to let all voices be heard.”

couraging job growth and reducing regulatory burden on businesses so they can more effectively compete with enterprises elsewhere.

State Sen. Betty Little noted that she received a lot of calls from citizens on their problems with passports, Medicare and Social Security and that she referred the inquiries to Stefanik with confidence that Stefanik would work to resolve the issues.

“Elise’s constituent service is second to none,” she said. “And, we’ve had the thrill of electing the youngest woman ever elected to Congress — We see a great future for Elise.”

Little also commented on the national election, saying that she had faith that U.S. citizens would align behind the new president.

“Whoever wins, we will survive, because this is a great country,” she said.

Stefanik took to the stage, greeted with wild applause and spoke without notes.

“I promise, as I did two years ago, that I will work my hardest every single day bringing fresh energy, innovative ideas, working in every corner of this very large district, focusing on economic growth and creating jobs, setting the standard for transparency, and always standing up for our troops,” she said. “We have fought for small businesses, for students,

for farmers and for veterans.”

Also, she voiced compliments to the candidates who ran against her in the 21st Congressional District.

“I thank my opponents Matt Funiciello and Mike Derrick for stepping into the political arena, ready to serve — we need more of that in this country at the federal, state and local level — and I want to thank them for a robust, positive campaign.”

In Warren County, Stefanik received 64.8 percent of the vote compared to Derrick, the Democratic Congressional candidate with 24.5 percent; and Funiciello representing the Green Party, with 10.7 percent.

Wilson defeats Smith for judgeship In the race for an open Warren County Family Court Judge post, Ted Wilson — representing the Republican, Conservative and Reform parties — received 52.8 percent of the vote, and Rob Smith, representing the Democratic, Green, Working Families parties and two other labels, received 47.4 percent of the vote.

Incumbent U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer, who received 59.5 percent of the vote to Republican Wendy Long’s 37.3 percent, was the only Democrat to receive support from a majority of the voters in Warren County, which has about two Republicans registered for each Democrat.

Headlining a Republican election victory celebration Tuesday night in Glens Falls, incumbent U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik praised her political opponents — who lost by a wide margin — for seeking a role in public service. State Assemblyman Dan Stec (right rear) and Freda Solomon (left forefront), wife of the late U.S. Rep. Gerald Solomon who served from 1983-1993, were among friends, politicians and relatives who joined Stefanik onstage.

White space << Continued from | p. 1

Locally, however, the project sparked controversy. Early on, some local citizens attacked the technology, saying it wouldn’t work as intended — but the project indeed surpassed expectations, according to its subscribers.

Later, political opponents of Thurman Supervisor Evelyn Wood attempted to derail the project, saying it wouldn’t meet the goals specified in the grant agreement, and the $200,000 would never be received.

For years, Wood’s opponents questioned every move forward, criticized or challenged every broadband-related contract, and attempted to block every vote on the project, causing numerous delays.

At times, their opposition to white space became vocal, disrupting town meetings.

But a majority of the board kept the white space project moving forward, citing the need to provide broadband connections to boost local economic development, provide connectivity for children’s education and for adults’ social bonds and employment opportunities.

Wood expressed pleasure Nov. 7 that the $200,000 was indeed received from the state, as of Nov. 4.

“We received the entire $200,000 in a wire transfer into our bank account,” Wood said. “We are very happy to see it. Our town board members very excited.”

She said the grant will replenish the fund balance, out of which the expenses were paid over the past several years when they were incurred.

The town has spent $267,146 toward the project, plus $10,394 of non-cash “in-kind” services, primarily labor by town employees, Wood said.

About 40 households are now served by the white-space system, which was first activated in March 2015.

The subscribers’ recurring $50 monthly payments go to the town, to pay back the system’s expenses and refund the town’s 50 percent subsidy of the in-home wireless broadcast equipment. Wood said that it would take about two more years for the town to recover the town’s remaining $67,146 of invested cash.

“Right now, we’re where we should be financially,” she said.

The town will continue to hook up more households within the broadcast service area, and pay half of the subscribers’ equipment cost of $584.

The system is now being operated and maintained by Viking Electric, the electrical contractor for the system, following the town’s disagreement this spring regarding compensation with Fred Englemann of Rainmaker Networks, who designed the system.

Subscribers have reported the system is reliable and features fast upload and download speeds, as well as unlimited non-throttled data transmission. Wood said that not one subscriber has yet cancelled their service.

Reflecting on the project, which began in 2011, and the long wait for reimbursement, Wood offered her thoughts.

“It’s been a very long road,” she said.

Originally, plans called for bringing wireless broadband to most all town residents, in several successive phases. This week, Wood sounded like she had less ambitious outlook now — she said the town would be exploring options, including encouraging private enterprises to set up systems to serve the remaining houses that have no available service except ultra-slow dial-up.

“We’d certainly like to expand broadband in upcoming years if we can,” she said.

WARRENSBURG — Warrensburg first grade students continued the tradition of participating in “Make A Difference Day.” With help from everyone in the school, they have a grand total of 44 pounds of pull tabs that were collected throughout October. The tabs will be donated to the Ronald McDonald House.

‘Salute to Veterans’ concert scheduled to be held Nov. 13 GLENS FALLS — Men and women who have served in the U.S. military are to be honored this weekend, as the Lake George Community Band hosts its annual Salute to Veterans concert at 3 p.m. Sunday Nov. 13 in the Glens Falls High School auditorium.

Admission is free to veterans and present members of the U.S. military as well as students and children. All seats are general admission, and the doors open at 2:30 p.m.

Tickets are $12 at the door — cash or check only.

The concert has been endorsed by U.S. Veterans Administration, Warren County Veterans Services, local posts of both the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars, local U.S. Armed Forces recruiting offices and the Patriot Guard Riders.

Officials of the Lake George Community Band encourage veterans and members of the military from throughout the area to attend and wear their uniforms.

Conducted by director Michael Craner,

the concert will pay homage to veterans and military personnel for their patriotism and willingness to serve. The concert will present a variety of patriotic music, and other songs popular during various eras of conflict eras.

The Glens Falls Lions’ Fabulous Flying Fingers, a children’s signing group, will join the band hand-signing a selection for those with hearing impairments.

The Lake George Community Band is an all volunteer non-profit organization consisting of local musicians who provide the community with musical programs and music for local civic events. For more information, see lgcb.org.

Band publicist Dale Perry said the Salute to Veterans concert, to be held two days after Veterans Day, offers an opportunity for area citizens to express gratitude to veterans and military personnel for their services.

“This is a great way to thank them all for their sacrifices,” Perry said.

has spent his life in the district can adequately represent its constituents.

The bakery owner frequently referred to his opponents as “corporate candidates” who could never affect change because they would be beholden to campaign donors.

As such, they would never embark on meaningful solutions to climate change, living wage and health care.

If elected, he said he would become a “green dot” in Congress, acting as a beacon for other progressive candidates, which would slowly tilt the national discussion.

The candidate also took relish in attacking Derrick, painting him an opportunist and a “false progressive” who changed party affiliation to run for the seat.

And he did so using social media as a pulpit, having been outspent due to party policy not to accept corporate donations, raising just $13,899 in his second bid for the seat, which he launched in March.

But the candidate struggled at times, waging a self-described “quixotic” campaign with more a rigid, inflexible view on the issues than the last go-around.

In several memorable debate performances, for instance, Funiciello said the district’s livestock farmers should pull out of cattle farming to combat climate change.

Funiciello also indicated broadband development in the Adirondack Park should not be prioritized in order to preserve the rural character of the state park.

Several area newspapers cited those comments in their decision to endorse his opponents, including the Adirondack Daily Enterprise, which endorsed him in 2014.

But despite the sniping, the tenor of the three-way race never reached the rancor of the national race.

ON THE GROUND Voters appeared to be happy that the long saga was coming to an end.

“I’ll be very happy when it’s over,” said Jason Halaburda as he left the Beekman Street polling place in Plattsburgh.

“This has been the scariest election, in my opinion.”

Mary Dineen, of Plattsburgh, echoed those sentiments.

“I’m voting third party,” Dineen said. “I hear a lot of people saying, ‘I hate Trump’ or ‘I hate Hillary.’ There’s another option.”

Funiciello had long said in the campaign he hoped to rout Derrick — and has even called for him to drop out of the race.

And to the spoiler argument that haunted third-party candidates, he has said all candidates are technically spoilers of one another, frequently citing internal polls that show him besting Derrick.

But his support collapsed this cycle.

While the candidate nearly beat Woolf in Warren County in 2014, where he nabbed 22.6 percent to the filmmaker’s 25 percent, he soundly lost the county on Tuesday, earning just 10.2 percent — his strongest showing.

District-wise, he was edged out by “blanks,” which garnered 4.57 percent.

The results revealed additional surprises.

In Jefferson County, home to Fort Drum, Stefanik scored 59 percent of the vote in 2014, besting Woolf by 30 points, making the county a must-watch to see how Derrick’s military service — including commanding troops in Iraq and Afghanistan — squared against Stefanik’s inroads, including a seat on the House Armed Services Committee.

Stefanik fared slightly better on Tuesday, scoring 61 percent.

The lawmaker also won Clinton County and Essex County, both of which she narrowly lost in the last election cycle.

VOTER REGISTRATION UP With 56.5 percent turnout, turnout this year was about 10 percent higher than in 2014, according to the state Board of Elections.

But while statewide registrations have grown by 6 percent since 2014, the number shrunk to 3 percent in the congressional district.

Broken down by party: The Green Party saw a 13.6 percent uptick in registered members since 2014, from 1,022 to 1,161, which perhaps can be attributed to the party’s grassroots registration efforts and incorporation of a local chapter, the Warren County Green Party.

Unregistered, or “blank” voters, saw 7 percent growth.

Democrats grew by 3.9 percent.

And the GOP held flat at .04 percent.

NorthÊ Warren-JohnsburgÊ harriersÊ winÊ boyÕ sÊ DÊ title SARATOGA SPRINGS — The Section II cross country race was held on Friday, Nov. 4, at Spa Park in Saratoga Springs.

The weather turned out to be a perfect day for running. The meet consisted of 550 boys and 500 girls running in four separate races each.

The Johnbsurg-North Warren boys and girls teams would race with other Class D schools.

The girls race began at noon.

Nerves were settled after the gun went off for the start of the race with 106 runners from 12 teams.

“Our girls had a great race,” said coach Gary Wilson said.

“The top five girls on our team all had personal best times: Ava Anderson (21:25) 20th place, Summertyme Baker (21:31) 22nd, Sheridan Millington (21:54) 28th, Madasyn Bush (22:13) 35th, and Alyssa Dewar (22:29) 40th.

“Our sixth and seventh runners were Sasha kinblom and Manon Stevens,” Wilson said.

“The girls ended up in Fourth Place overall behind Greenwich, Duanesburg, and Maple Hill. This was the last race for the girls and they sure earned a much needed rest. Next year they will look to be on top in the Adirondack League.”

The boys race started at 2 p.m. with blue skies and perfect temperatures. nThe Johnsburg-North Warren Boys team was picked as one of the favorites to win the sectional race along with the team from Maple Hill.

The boys looked to be in trouble at the two mile mark.

“Maple Hill was running strong,” Wilson said. “Pulling from deep within our boys had a fabulous last mile, but a clean winner was not evident until the scores were tallied. Six of the ten boys would run personal best times.

Brandon Olden (16:16) placed second, with Ken Mulvey(17:08) 12th, Matt Brown (17:18) 13th, Seamus Tomb (17:24) 14th and Hayden Smith (17:53) 25th. Gabe Smith (47th) and Harry Helinski (55th) completed the top seven.

Casey Tomb (61), Patrick Terry (64), and Joe Pepin(96) rounded out the team.

After waiting for 15 minutes the scores were posted and Johnsburg-North Warren boys were victorious: 62 points to Maples Hill’s 76.

The team will now lead the Section II Class D contingent to the NYSPHSAA State Championships at Chenango Forks State Park near Binghamton on Saturday, Nov. 12.
