On Tuesday, Hyde Park voters elected Russell Urban-Mead as Town Supervisor and re-elected Marc Prine, Gregory Komar and Paul Donnelly to the Town Board. Russell takes office in January.
Russell ran on open government, current audits and getting the town's finances in order. For the next two years, Hyde Park has a supervisor and a Town Board majority who agree on how to run Town Hall.
This result came from hundreds of hours of volunteer work: doors knocked, phones called, signs planted, events hosted and rides given. Thank you to every volunteer, and to every neighbor who turned out. Turnout was the highest this town has seen for a town election in years.
Results are unofficial until certified by the Dutchess County Board of Elections. Final numbers: Dutchess County election results (opens in a new tab).
