George Latimer Hosts Campaign Office Openings in Mt. Kisco and Hastings-On-Hudson
George Latimer candidate who is running for Westchester County Executive held two campaign office openings this weekend.
On Saturday, August 26, Senator George Latimer (Democrat) who is running for County Executive, officially opened his Mount Kisco and Hastings-On-Hudson campaign offices. Each opening drew a crowd of fifty to sixty people enthusiastic to volunteer and support Latimer.
“We’re not running because we’re the blue team and they’re the red team, we’re running because we believe in something, we believe in our values,” said Latimer as he addressed the crowd in Mount Kisco.
Assemblyman David Buchwald (D- Westchester) and Assemblyman Tom Abinanti (D-Greenburgh/Mt. Pleasant) attended the Mount Kisco office opening. Also present were candidates for Westchester County Legislator, Kitley Covill and Daren Tolz.

While addressing the crowd, Latimer echoed similar sentiments from his Mount Kisco opening. Latimer stated, "we're doing it because inside we believe in something...we stand for the opposite of Trump. Not only the policy positions, but the way he looks at government.”
Latimer currently has campaign offices in Yonkers (Southern Westchester) and Mamaroneck (SoundShore). With the expansion of his campaign to Mount Kisco (Northern Westchester) and Hastings-On-Hudson (Rivertowns), Latimer now has four campaign offices in each corner of the County.
