Levenberg, Connolly Win Ossining Democratic Primary

OSSINING, NY — Dana Levenberg and Peter Connolly won decisively in Ossining's Democratic nomination for Ossining town supervisor and highway superintendent in Tuesday's primary, according to unofficial results from the Westchester County Board of Elections.

Levenberg was challenged by town Council Member Elizabeth R. Feldman for the Democratic line on the November ballot. Connolly was challenged by Fern N. Quezada, a member of the town's Recreation Advisory Board.

As factions in the local Democratic party fought for control, the fight over supervisor was more heated. On Tuesday, many Democrats who voted in the primary were village residents, able to vote for town supervisor but not for highway superintendent, which handles only the "town outside."

The results in the supervisor contest:

• Levenberg: 869
• Feldman: 593

In the highway superintendent primary:

• Connolly: 210
• Quezada: 161

The general election is Nov. 2.

Editor's Note: Only residents of the unincorporated part of Ossining, known locally as the "town outside" were able to vote in the highway superintendent primary.
