Villacci, 62, of East Rockaway, is a registered Republican and is running on the Republican and Conservative party lines in the general election.
She grew up in Lynbrook and has a law degree from Hofstra Law School in Hempstead. She has been an attorney for more than 35 years and has had a private solo law practice in Rockville Centre for nearly 20 years.
Villacci is a deputy county attorney and in August was named executive director of the Nassau County Office of Community Development. She was an elected trustee in the Village of East Rockaway from 2005 to 2011.

Villacci said that if elected she would “work to hold the line on taxes and make state government as efficient and cost-effective as possible.”
She said she would “continue efforts to support our police” while working “to fix New York’s broken cashless bail system.”
Villacci said she would work to stop “the adverse impact on suburban life of congestion pricing” and would seek to protect local laws that prevent “cramming high-rise apartments into residential communities.”
