GOP buffet in Webster as well
Following on stlo7’s post about Henrietta’s GOP feud, comes an interesting article in the Messenger Post about Webster’s GOP:
Webster GOP: United they claim, divided they stand
The Webster Republicans tried to present a united slate of candidates, but several party members – including incumbent Supervisor Ronald Nesbitt – are displeased with the way things are being run.
By “things”, I believe they’re talking about town committee nominations?
[Village board member] Rickard and other Webster Republicans who were turned away at the vote Wednesday, May 16, remain unclear regarding the reason why.

Yes the committee was divided, but now that the (former) leader and her selected group of followers are no longer in charge, the Webster Republican Committee is back in the hands of people who have in the past, and will continue in the future, to work hard electing candidates who believe in the principals that the party stands for.
[...] of Nesbitt, you’ll remember that back in May he got in a bit of a tiff with the Webster Republican [...]
