Last night the Orange County Democratic Party’s Executive Committee voted unanimously to endorse Evelyn Lloyd, Brian Lowen, and Mark Bell for the Hillsborough Town Board at the Party’s monthly executive committee meeting.
An ad hoc committee was appointed following a motion at the September session of the County Executive Committee. County Commissioner Renee Price chaired the committee, which unanimously recommended endorsing the three Democrats running for Hillsborough’s Town Board. Tonight’s action officially endorsed these three Democrats vying for the three seats up on the Hillsborough Town Board in this year’s elections.
Endorsing in nonpartisan elections is a rare event. Between these three candidates they have decades of service to the Town of Hillsborough and our greater Orange County community. Whether it has been as part of the current membership of the Town Board, service on town advisory boards, or in the community, these candidates exemplify the character and values that make Hillsborough and Orange County great.
Additionally, these three Democrats are opposed by two conservative independent candidates attempting to fly under the radar. Their public comments contrasts strongly with the values of Hillsborough and the Orange County community. These candidates have not been shy about their beliefs and what they see as the role of government on the local level. It is our belief that they would not represent our community well on the Hillsborough Town Board.
We are confident that Evelyn, Brian, and Mark will represent residents, families, businesses, and property owners well on the Town Board. We look forward to working with these great candidates moving forward and turning out the vote in Hillsborough this year. Please stay tuned for ways to get involved with our efforts.
