Reed Douglas is a gentleman. I believe Reed Douglas is a great candidate for Town Clerk.
His candidacy is a historical one for the Town of Cortlandt as he is the first African American citizen to be nominated by a major party for Town Clerk in the Town of Cortlandt.

Reed Douglas is well qualified and prepared to be Cortlandt’s next Town Clerk.
I want to thank all those who supported me in the primary. It was a close race and a good race. I want to especially thank Gregory Purdy.
I ask those who supported me to vote for Reed Douglas this November 7, 2017.
