Team New Castle 2.0 Announces Run for Town Offices

From Team New Castle 2.0

New Castle Town Supervisor Rob Greenstein today announced that he is running for re-election, and Eileen Gallagher and Seth Chodosh announced that they are running for Town Board.

Team New Castle will again be endorsed by the New Castle Town Republican Committee. They will run as a slate under the Team New Castle 2.0 banner

Greenstein stated, “Just like the last election, we believe that town government is about people and principles, not parties. Once again, the Team New Castle ticket is a bipartisan ticket that believes in the power of community. After all, fixing a pothole is neither a democratic nor republican issue.” Greenstein continued, “TNC 2.0 will always act in the best interests of the community – regardless of party affiliation!”

Two years ago Team New Castle won the supervisor’s position and the two open board seats with a bi-partisan slate, running on the idea that the complacency of the past will not result in a better future for our community.

Gallagher said, “Seth and I hope to build on the accomplishments of Rob, Lisa Katz and Adam Brodsky and work to lay the foundation for a brighter tomorrow for all residents.”

Steve Schoenfeld, New Castle Republican Committee Chair, reiterated, “Rob, Eileen and Seth will bring a diversity of perspective and talent to our town government that goes beyond party labels. The slate will give our neighbors in town a real democratic choice on the vision for the future of our town and our children who grow up here. The election will be a healthy debate for our town.”
