For Trustees, Both Parties Have Their Nine

East Hampton Town’s Republican and Democratic Committees have finalized their respective slates of candidates for the nine-member town trustee board.

On Monday, the East Hampton Town Republican Committee announced that Susan Vorpahl, a daughter of Mary Vorpahl and the late Stuart Vorpahl, is a designated candidate for town trustee in the Nov. 7 election.

Reg Cornelia, the committee’s chairman, said that Ms. Vorpahl’s decision to run completed the Republicans’ slate of trustee candidates. The slate will be officially designated at the committee’s next regular meeting, scheduled for Wednesday.

“We are extremely proud to have Susan on board,” Mr. Cornelia said in a statement issued on Monday. “Everyone knows the contributions her father made to keeping the Dongan Patent a living, breathing document and a continuing guarantee of the rights of the citizens of East Hampton. Without his efforts, it might have ended up as a historical artifact in a museum. I’m sure that as a trustee Susan will make her father proud.” Stuart Vorpahl, who died last year, was a lifelong bayman and served several terms as a trustee.

Pending the official designation, Ms. Vorpahl will join Diane McNally and Jim Grimes, who are Republican incumbent trustees, and six other designees. They are Julie Evans, Willy Wolter, Joe Bloecker, Lyndsey Hayes, Gary Cobb, and Mike Havens. Mr. Bloecker is a former trustee. Mr. Havens is a former candidate for trustee. Tim Bock, an incumbent Republican trustee, is not seeking re-election.

Jeanne Frankl and Ilissa Meyer, co-chairwomen of the East Hampton Town Democratic Committee, announced that the party’s screening committee has forwarded its recommendations for townwide offices to the full Democratic Committee. Candidates will be officially nominated at the party’s nominating convention on May 17.

All five Democratic trustee incumbents will seek re-election this fall. They are Francis Bock, the clerk, or presiding officer; Rick Drew and Bill Taylor, who are deputy clerks; Tyler Armstrong, and Brian Byrnes. John Aldred, Dell Cullum, Susan McGraw Keber, and Francesca Rheannon round out the Democrats’ slate of trustee candidates.

Pat Mansir, a Democratic trustee, resigned last month. Mr. Byrnes had said last month that he would not seek a third term, but Ms. Mansir’s resignation prompted him to reverse that position.
