The Dutchess County Republican Committee has scheduled its convention for May 16 at the Grand Hotel in Poughkeepsie, and there's still a tiny bit of suspense surrounding the party's picks for county-wide offices heading toward the November elections.
Committee Chairwoman Corinne Weber was still marveling at the result of the Kentucky Derby when Straw Poll contacted her by phone this evening to check in. (She didn't win any money.)
Weber said District Attorney William Grady, Sheriff Butch Anderson and Clerk Brad Kendall all have confirmed their interest in running on the Republican ticket. That leaves only County Executive William Steinhaus, who has yet to say publicly whether he will run for a fifth four-year term.
Straw Poll has a hunch. We'll know for certain soon: Weber said Steinhaus is expected to make an announcement sometime next week.
