Most Suffolk incumbents keep their seats; Stark loses
Most Suffolk County Legislature candidates won their seats, with the only exception being Legis. Catherine Stark for the 1st District.
Legis. Stephanie Bontempi (R-Centerport) declared victory in the 18th district.
“This was a hairy one but we did it," Bontempi said.
Unofficial results show Bontempi narrowly ahead of Democrat Craig D. Herskowitz.
