10th Legislative District
Republican Marcotte Wins Seat on County Board of Legislators
Submitted by sue guzman on Tue, 06/22/2010 - 10:11pm
Eastchester Councilwoman Sheila Marcotte Tuesday night easily defeated democrat Greg Varian for the 10th Legislative District seat on the Westchester County Board of Legislators 58-42%.
Marcotte is a former Tuckahoe Village Trustee who ran on a platform saying she had strong skills and leadership ability. Varian is an attorney and a trustee for the New Rochelle Public Library. Both advocated streamlining government and consolidating services.
The district includes Eastchester, Tuckahoe and part of New Rochelle.
The seat was vacated by former Westchester County Legislator Vito Pinto who stepped down earlier this year to head the County's Veterans Service Agency and Office of Drug Prevention and Stop DWI.
