MASSENA â An objection that was filed with the St. Lawrence County Board of Elections regarding the Massena Republican caucus was not upheld during a vote last week.
The objection alleged that the Board of Elections did not receive proper notice of the Massena Republican caucus.
The required notices were published by local media for the two July 8 caucuses â one to nominate candidates for village mayor and the second to nominate candidates for town supervisor, town council, town justice and town clerk.
âThe objection was not upheld. That means that one voted to uphold and one voted to reject. Because it was not unanimous, the objection was not upheld,â St. Lawrence County Board of Elections Commissioner Thomas Nichols said.
MASSENA â An objection was filed with the St. Lawrence County Board of Elections on Thursday, alleging that the Board of Elections did not receive proper notice of the Massena Republican caucus.
If thatâs the case, it could mean the caucus was not valid and there would be no time to hold another one.
âAt this point there wouldnât be enough time. They would have to do either a write-in campaign or something of that nature because the last day is July 22 to hold a caucus. But youâd have to put a notice in at least 10 days prior. There isnât enough time to hold another caucus,â St. Lawrence County Deputy Commissioner Gordon I. Ward said.
