Additionally, Brett Kimmel was named Secretary for the Committee. "I have had the awesome privilege of serving as chair of the Bedford Democratic Committee for more than 6 years and look forward to remaining a District Leader, supporting the committee and great candidates that share our values," Carr said. "I am honored to step into the role as Chair of the Bedford Democratic Committee; we have been able to put together strong slates of candidates that have resonated across the Town, and I look forward to continuing the great work of the Committee in identifying and supporting candidates that support and advocate for Democratic values. We aim to represent the many voices of Democrats in our Town," said Dembo. The Committee has also endorsed the following candidates for Town Office for the upcoming election cycle: Town Justice: Jodi Kimmel Town Board: Stephanie McCaine and Anthony Mamo Town Clerk: Boo Fumagalli Of the endorsements, Dembo stated: "We are excited to support these candidates as they seek important roles in our town governance. All of these candidates support the values and goals that are important to our constituents, and our Committee will work hard to help them get elected." Dembo further stated that "the BDC supports Town Supervisor MaryAnn Carr and Deputy Supervisor Ellen Calves, both of whom are seeking to run for Supervisor in November. As both candidates are active members of the Democratic Committee and elected officials, the Committee felt it appropriate for the broader community to weigh in through the primary process to make a final decision on the candidate to run on the ballot in November."
