t was an emotional moment for outgoing Mount Vernon City Controller Maureen Walker as she addressed her staff following her lost the Democratic primary last Tuesday.

Walker, who served for some 25 years was seeking a seventh term with the backing of local Democratic leaders, was outpolled by former city Councilwoman Deborah Reynolds with 2,408 or 53% of the votes cast. The City Controller congratulated Reynolds and noted she (Walker) served the City of

Mount Vernon well, but came short of the votes needed. Walker also said she would continue to be part of the city while spending more time with her family. Also in the Democratic primary for three open seats on the Mount Vernon council, Janice Duarte (2,704 or 24% votes), Delia Farquharson (2,377 or

21%) and incumbent Marcus Griffith (2,283 or 20%) narrowly defeated Clyde A. Isley (2,132 or 19%) and Hope Marable (1,882 or 17%) The winners of the September primary will join Republican Steven "Butch" Thomas, brother of Mayor Richard Thomas, on the ballot in the general election in November. George Latimer won Westchester County's Democratic Party primary for county executive, cruising to victory on Tuesday over Ken Jenkins.

In the White Plains mayoral Democratic primary, incumbent Mayor Tom Roach handily defeated challenger Milagros Lecuona. As of late Tuesday night, unofficial tallies from the Westchester Board of Elections had Roach with 2,111 votes to Lecuona’s 785, with 76 percent of districts.
