In his second attempt to gain a political role in Sleepy Hollow, biking activist Daniel Convissor will be challenging a trio of Unite Sleepy Hollow party candidates for one of the three open trustee seats in the village’s March 16 general election.
Convissor ran against Mayor Ken Wray in the 2019 elections as an independent write-in candidate, but managed to garner only 52 votes. This election will see him competing against current, two-term Trustee Denise Scaglione, and two newcomers running under the Unite Sleepy Hollow flag, Tom Andruss and Jared Rodriguez.
The non-partisan Sleepy Hollow Committee’s candidates have not lost an election since the group was formed in 2015, under Wray, and it hasn’t been opposed by any formal political party since then. Wray is contending to win his seventh consecutive election. The mayor faces no opponent so far.
