Two candidates joined the contested race for the two open village board seats in Saranac Lake at the Republican caucus on Tuesday — realtor Katie Stiles and hotel sales director Joshua King. According to the Adirondack Daily Enterprise, both candidates are registered independents. King sought the Democratic party line at that party’s caucus last week, but retired project manager David Trudeau and town Councilman Jeremy Evans gathered more votes there to represent the Democratic line.
