Lewisboro Democratic Committee Endorses Town & County Candidates
Incumbents Janet Donohue, Tony Goncalves, Sue Simon, Rich Sklarin, Dan Welsh, Erika Pierce & candidate Steve Alfano Earn Broad Support

The Lewisboro Democratic Committee (LDC) has announced its endorsement of Town of Lewisboro candidates for the 2023 campaign season. Seeking reelection are Supervisor Tony Goncalves of Goldens Bridge, Councilmembers Rich Sklarin of Goldens Bridge and Dan Welsh of South Salem, Town Clerk Janet Donohue, Town Justice Sue Simon, as well as Westchester District 2 County Legislator Erika Pierce of Katonah, all of whom were unanimously endorsed by the LDC. Additionally, the LDC overwhelmingly voted to endorse first time candidate Steve Alfano for Town Highway Superintendent, whose management experience and background in the landscape industry will be assets to the department.
“These incumbent elected officials have repeatedly proven their effectiveness through their fiscal responsibility, investments in our infrastructure, public safety and environment and overall community improvements, as well as their future vision with the Comprehensive Plan initiative,” said LDC Chair Jenn Castelhano. “Their impressive focus on seeking grant funding for local projects and continued improvement of Town-wide communication platforms is the type of effective nonpartisan local government results that will keep moving Lewisboro forward in a responsible and sustainable direction.”
“The Lewisboro Democratic Committee is excited to support these candidates for county and local government to continue their work on behalf of all Lewisboro residents.”
