We are proud to announce that voters have placed their trust in our slate of candidates! Tonight, we can comfortably claim victory in all contested local offices!
This comprehensive win is a testament to our community-first platform: preserving our small-town heritage, safeguarding fiscal responsibility, improving infrastructure without burdening taxpayers, and ensuring strong, accountable leadership in town government.
“We are deeply humbled by the support from our neighbors and friends across the town,” said Town Supervisor Kippy Weigelt. “These results reflect a shared desire to see Claverack continue to embrace our roots while proactively preparing for tomorrow.”
“I’m honored and grateful for the trust the people of Claverack have placed in me,” said Town Councilman Stephen Hook. “I will continue to work as hard as possible — everyday, for everyone!"
“Throughout this campaign, people told us they wanted steady leadership and practical solutions — not politics.,” said Town Councilman-elect Phil Tkacy. “I’m proud to be part of a team that listens, works hard, and always puts the community first.”
Serving as your Town Clerk and Tax Collector is an incredible honor,” said Rich Michael. “I want to thank everyone for their trust and support. Our office will continue to provide the friendly, professional service people expect — in the tradition of Mary Jeanne Hoose.”
The Team extends its sincere thanks to every volunteer and supporter who helped with the campaign. Together we ran a campaign grounded in real conversations, genuine promises, and practical solutions rooted in community service.
Thank you, everyone!
