Letter to the editor: Wakeman for Tompkins County Legislature 

To the Editor:

Now more than ever we should pay close attention to who’s representing us on the County Legislature. Here’s some good news. Dan Wakeman, currently the Deputy Mayor of Dryden Village, is running to fill the position left open by Mike Lane’s retirement. Democracy is at its best when excellent people like Dan, a long-term resident of Dryden and a civic leader, step forward. Stand with Dan and don’t sit out the November election. Dan has been a hard-working councilman in Dryden for over a decade and knows the ropes of leadership. Dryden has him to thank for helping to secure $17.4 million in grants for infrastructure, housing, and economic development. Let’s elect Dan in November and reap the rewards of a smart leader with technology-business background, and a proven record of civic action. 

Sincerely,

Charles Geisler, Ithaca
