<h4>About John Borrelli: </h4>Native LeRoyan John Borrelli was deeply influenced by his late father, Nicholas Borrelli, who was LeRoy's mayor in the 1960's and served as a county legislator from 1986 to 1993. "Dad always urged me to get involved in public service. I promised him that I would but the time wasn't right until now."John's two grandchildren are his inspiration for running for office. He sees how quickly the world is changing and knows that not only do we need to solve immediate problems but to also plan for the long-term. One of John's biggest concerns is that there isn't enough economic opportunity to keep young people here.

How to Run for Democratic Office in New York

<h4>Change is coming, whether we’re ready or not.</h4>Economic shifts, environmental pressures, and evolving community needs demand fresh thinking. That’s why this election isn’t just about choosing leaders, it’s about choosing ideas. And the best ideas don’t come from one side alone. They come from respectful collaboration, from listening across differences, and from leaders who value every voice.<h4>This year’s election offers voters a real choice, and we’re proud to be part of it.</h4><h4>Who We Are</h4><h5>Brenda Post</h5>Serving with Honor and Purpose Brenda raised her family here in Alexander and has spent her life giving back. After retiring from Attica Prison, she continues to serve through roles that reflect her deep appreciation for the community. As a member of the Alexander Cemetery Board, she helps preserve the dignity and history of our town’s past. As Co-Leader of the Fireman’s Band, she’s not only kept the music alive, she’s secured two grants to ensure it thrives, easing the financial burden and keeping the tradition strong for future generations. Her work has always centered on people, not politics. She believes that leadership means showing up, listening, and doing the hard work, even when no one’s watching.Brenda believes that by doing what’s right she can help the community. She leads with empathy and holds a clear-eyed vision for a community built on shared responsibility. In every role she’s held, B has proven that true leadership isn’t about titles, it’s about trust. <h5>Colette Guarino</h5>Grounded in Faith, Trusted in ServiceColette has spent her entire life in Alexander, shaped by the values of hard work. Raised in a large local farming family, she learned early on that true leadership begins with rolling up your sleeves and showing up for others. While some may know her family members, those who know her personally know a woman of integrity, intelligence, and quiet strength. For years, she ran a successful business in Alden, balancing entrepreneurship with the demands of motherhood and civic duty. Her years with the Fire Department’s Auxiliary and her active role in church reflect a deep commitment to helping others. Today, she brings that same servant’s mindset to her work at the school.Colette believes in the strength of this town and its people. Not just in what we have in common, but in how we respect our differences. She’s a woman of integrity, intelligence, and quiet determination, always focused on getting the job done and getting it done right.<h5>Sarah Kohl</h5>New Energy for Alexander’s FutureSarah grew up in Darien, where she learned that hard work and how you treat people matter more than titles. Inspired by her parents’ small business and unique local experiences like the Steam Show, she earned a degree from Rochester Institute of Technology and built a global career in business and technology. Known for solving tough problems with ease, Sarah has helped companies across the U.S. and Europe stay profitable and grow, yet she chooses to live in Alexander for the people, not the convenience. She’s active in book clubs, board game nights, and volunteers regularly because she believes in the strength of this community. Her commitment shows: she’s served multiple terms on the Town Zoning Board and attended nearly every board meeting this year. Sarah isn’t driven by politics, she’s driven by curiosity, care, and a desire to help. She believes leadership starts with listening, and that real progress comes from working together.With her blend of business experience, tech-savvy insight, and dedication to the community, she brings a fresh perspective and a steady hand. She’s ready to work hard, learn from others, and help Alexander navigate challenges to come.

<h4>From Nikki Calhoun: </h4>I’m Nikki Calhoun, and I’m proudly running as a Democrat to represent LeRoy in the Genesee County Legislature.I’ve been married to Andy, my high school sweetheart, for 22 years and we have three amazing daughters. Andy and I started our first chapter together right here in LeRoy with our first apartment and our first baby. We lived in Pavilion for several years but came back to LeRoy in 2014. Ever since, I’ve worked on projects to make our community stronger and more vibrant.&nbsp;I believe that LeRoy deserves a Legislative Representative who understands our community’s values and is willing to work hard for a better future. I bring experience to the table, along with fresh eyes and new ideas to solve our problems.

<h4>Giving Voters a Choice</h4>Genesee County usually doesn't see contested races, but Michael Plitt believes in offering choices for local office. While talking with his neighbors, Mike keeps hearing that they have 3 main concerns: taxes, taxes, and taxes. "Yes, I'm a Democrat, but I hate paying taxes, too. I just want them used efficiently." Mike's issues include:<ul><li>The high price of water in Pembroke and Darien: "The County Legislature could equalize water rates throughout the county."</li><li>Concern about the STAMP Project: Stalled and broken promises have made this a mistake. "Let's stop throwing good money after bad." The County Legislature has influence over the Genesee County Economic Development Center and it should hear opposing points of view on the project. </li><li>Holding the Western Regional Off-Track Betting Board of Directors accountable for its decisions.</li></ul><a href="https://www.thebatavian.com/jfbeck99272012/plitt-opts-to-get-involved-and-offer-contested-race-for-genesee-county-legislator" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Read the article about Michael in the October 10, 2025 issue of The Batavian</a><a href="https://secure.actblue.com/donate/genesee-county-democratic-committee--ny--1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Help support Michael's campaign with a contribution to the GCDC</a><h4>Mike's Community Involvement:</h4><ul><li>Corfu Public Library Board of Trustees</li><li>Town of Darien Zoning Board of Appeals</li><li>Town of Darien - Past Councilman</li><li>Volunteer sports coach</li></ul>

<h4>Here are the issues that I think are important for Pembroke:</h4><ul><li>All levels of local government should be transparent and accountable. Residents should have access to board meetings - including zoning and planning sessions - by attending in person or by virtual connection.</li><li>Local government should actively seek and listen to ideas and input from residents.</li><li>Encourage business growth while maintaining Pembroke's neighborly atmosphere.</li><li>Balance commercial development with the impact it has on Pembroke's citizens and tax base.</li><li>Ensure that water district installation is done with input from property owners and keep them informed as the projects progress.</li><li>Pembroke's parks should be well managed and maintained for families to enjoy. We need to develop clear policies for park facility rental and create written agreements to protect both the renter and the Town of Pembroke.</li></ul><h4>I am ready to work WITH you for Pembroke!</h4>

Data Details

<h4>"I am running for the LeRoy Town Council because I believe in the necessity of balance in government."</h4>One-party rule does not fairly represent the citizens of LeRoy, and the views of a single party can leave good ideas and workable options off the table. Every LeRoyan deserves representation in our government. As your representative on the LeRoy Town Council, I will bring a fresh perspective focused on fairness, accountability, and common-sense solutions for our roads, our budget, and our future.<h4>Vote for balance on November 4!</h4><a href="https://secure.actblue.com/donate/genesee-county-democratic-committee--ny--1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Help support Billy's campaign with a contribution to the GDCD.</a>

<h4>"We have to take care of our people and I'm willing to do whatever I can to make the right choices."</h4>John cares about everybody. That could be called his liberal side, but he's conservative when it comes to finances. "We're in charge of other people's money...", and John takes that responsibility very seriously. He believes that county leadership needs to look ahead and develop 10 and 20-year plans so that your tax dollars are invested wisely for the benefit of our next generations.<h4>Finally, you have a choice!</h4>
