Eyeing another term as a receiver of taxes in Nassau County, Donald Clavin had a simple message for Democrats: “The GOP is back.”
Nassau Republicans were celebrating the results in several races late Tuesday night. Among the races being cheered – John Venditto’s re-election bid for Town of Oyster Bay supervisor, Kate Murray’s successful campaign for re-election as the Town of Hempstead’s supervisor and the re-election of Republican candidates in several legislative districts.
One common theme throughout the night – constant praise of Nassau County Republican Chairman Joseph Mondello. The candidates said they wouldn’t be able to do without his leadership and strategy, with Kate Murray referring to him as the GOP’s quarterback.
Even though it is past 11 p.m., Republican headquarters is still filled with hundreds of GOP faithful waiting to hear the latest results.
