Technical difficulties prevented the live televising of Monday night’s debate between the two candidates running to represent the South Fork in the New York State Assembly, Stephen Kiely, a Republican town attorney for Shelter Island, and Tommy John Schiavoni, a Democratic Southampton Town councilman.

However, the League of Women Voters of the Hamptons, Shelter Island, and the North Fork, which hosted the debate, announced Tuesday that it was, in fact, successfully recorded for viewing on YouTube via SEA-TV, Southampton Town’s public access channel.

The recording is available at youtube.com/c/SeaTVSouthampton.
