Four Democratic candidates crowd the field in Nyack mayor's race

Rockland World Radio proprietor Richard Quinn announced yesterday that he will be seeking the Democratic nomination for Mayor of the Village of Nyack. Quinn told LOTH that he's running because he feels Nyack needs a break from the same old policies and political figures. Quinn indicates that he's a big supporter of local businesses, but told us that he's skeptical of the Riverspace expansion plans.

Village Trustees Denise Hogan and Marie Lorenzini have already announced that they are running for Mayor. Marianne Olive, owner of Olive's, a bar and music venue on Main Street, has reportedly told acquaintances that she is also running. Olive has used her venue for fundraisers for local Democratic candidates in the past.

Considering that Democrats outnumber registered Republicans by nearly 2-to-1 in Nyack, it's a safe assumption that the winner of a Democratic Primary would waltz to a November election as Mayor of the 7,000-resident village.

It is my understanding that Maryann Olive lives in New Jersey. She is not a resident of Nyack. Though she might have a room above her establishment where she stays from time to time, her residence is New Jersey. I hope this will be clarified before the election.

I think you'll find the field will even get tighter.

Anyone who knows Richard Quinn knows that he is extremely qualified and would make a wonderful mayor.

I have personally been to Mariann Olive's home in Rivervale, NJ.She says in her statement that she raised her children in Nyack, which is a truth I would challange.

Maryann Olive pays employees under the table, has been know as a "slumlord", and her Son managed her bar when he was only 16 years of age. Her daughter is currently managing the bar. I don't know how they are all on their way up in the world.
