Jim Darcy is the most concerned politician when it comes to Valley Stream and other council districts. He was brought up right here and attended school here. Whatever decision he makes is carefully and fully thought through. He does not leave any stone unturned.

Now, after more than seven months have elapsed and on the eve of another critical local election, I believe that it is appropriate and helpful that I offer some reflections and views based on my experience. As many are aware, my first and last foray into politics was unsuccessful but extremely educational.

I noted last week’s letter to the editor from Richard Graves (“Gonzalez is not qualified”), who admits he does not live in the 6th Legislative District.
