MARIETTA STAYS ON BALLOT
AS DEMOCRAT, JUDGE RULES
COOPERSTOWN – In a decision filed today, Administrative Judge Robert Mulvey ruled that Andrew Marietta's name will remain on the Democratic line for District 8 county representative in the Nov. 3 elections.
He is running against county Rep. Rick Hulse, R-8.
The judge found Marietta's petitions, which had been challenged by Lynn Krogh, Republican County Committee secretary and wife of GOP County Chairman Vince Casale, were valid. Casale did not return a phone call this evening asking if he plans to challenge Mulvey's opinion.
Arguments were presented last Thursday in Courtroom #1 of the Otsego County Courthouse, with the Republicans represented by attorney Bryon McKim, Balston Spa, and the Democrats by Carol Malz, Oneonta.
