I would like to take this opportunity to endorse Dr. Frank Chiachiere for re-election to the Valley Stream District 13 school board. I have known Frank for more than 10 years. He has been an asset to the board, the community and the school system.

On Tuesday, I am voting for Gary Port to be my next supervisor. I am voting for Gary because as a lieutenant colonel in the United States Army, and a family man, he understands the words sacrifice, honor and loyalty.

Jim Darcy is the most concerned politician when it comes to Valley Stream and other council districts. He was brought up right here and attended school here. Whatever decision he makes is carefully and fully thought through. He does not leave any stone unturned.
