Orleans GOP endorses DA, 3 coroners
ALBION – The Orleans County Republican Party has endorsed Joe Cardone for another four-year term as district attorney.
Cardone of Medina has served more than two decades as the county’s top prosecutor.
“He’s done a great job,” said Ed Morgan, the county’s GOP chairman.
There are only four positions on the ballot in county elections this year. Besides Cardone, three coroners are up for election. The GOP Committee endorsed the incumbents: Charlie Smith of Ridgeway, Scott Schmidt of Medina and Rocky Sidari of Albion.
Schmidt is the current president of the New York State Association of County Coroners and Medical Examiners. Smith and Sidari are both active firefighters.
