Caroga candidates seek GOP spot
CAROGA — In Caroga, three candidates are vying for the spot on the Republican ticket in the race to serve the remaining year of the current supervisor’s term. The position became vacant when Gary Gifford resigned only a few months after being elected last year. The Town Board appointed Republican Robert Kane in March to fill the position until November. In the primary Tuesday, residents will choose from three Republican candidates — Kane, Ralph Ottuso and James Selmser — and the winner will face Democrat Ronald McLain in November. Kane said he is hoping to build a new Town Hall and a clinic for Nathan Littauer Hospital. “The whole building has problems,” he said. “The far end is cracked, and we have a mold problem,” he said. Kane said if elected, he will bring his extensive experience within the community to the position.
