There are now five candidates running for two seats on the Saranac Lake Village Board of Trustees. According to the Adirondack Daily Enterprise, two days before the Democratic caucus, incumbent Rich Shapiro announced Sunday that he is no longer running and instead endorsing two new candidates, Paul Van Cott and Aurora White. Another candidate, Fred Balzac, also recently filed paperwork to enter the race. These new candidates join two independent candidates, Katie Stiles and Sean Ryan, who announced their candidacy this past Friday.
