The chaotic Red Hook Town Board election, including procedural disputes at the Democratic caucus.

Show notes

In episode eight of 'The Catch Up', Walter Mullen and Emily Sachar focus on the contentious Red Hook Town Board election. They discuss the creation of the Homegrown Red Hook party by Democratic candidates Kristina Dousharm and Ken Migliorelli as a strategic backup plan. The show details the confusion surrounding the Democratic caucus held on May 31, including procedural issues and objections filed by community members. Key issues include a disputed door-closing time and the failure to post a required notice on a bulletin board at the Dutchess County Board of Elections. They delve into potential next steps, including the possibility of holding another caucus and switching to a primary system in the future. The episode concludes with questions for each other.
