Re-Elect Elaine for County Legislator!

I am very excited to be running for County Legislator to represent District 10. As a mom of three, graphic designer, community organizer and former town councilor, I would like to serve my community by bringing my knowledge, skills and passion to the Onondaga County Legislature.

I started participating in politics in 2017 and I haven’t stopped since. I have been following the county legislature closely and have been continually disappointed with the legislature’s lack of action, transparency and care for residents and our environment. I have repeatedly spoken out against the aquarium, gerrymandered maps, a partisan lawsuit to keep turnout low in local elections and additional issues facing our community.

Government should not be a rubber stamp. It should be about critical thinking, looking at the whole picture, being fiscally responsible, seeing how issues are connected and making policy that benefits as many people as possible.

This is not happening in our county government and I want to change it. With a $1.5 billion dollar budget, I know Onondaga County can do more for our communities.
