    Treasurer GOP contest leads June Allegany County primaries

    BELMONT — A countywide race to head finances tops the ballot in Allegany County primaries this month.

    The Allegany County Board of Elections reported that six primaries will be held in the county June 24, with polls open for in-person voting from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.

    The only countywide race is the Republican primary for county treasurer, with Former county legislator Adam Cyr and Deputy County Treasurer Jenna K. Kelley seeking to earn the party’s nod to replace retiring Treasurer Terri Ross.

    Another county government race will see a primary, as five candidates are on the ballot to earn the GOP’s three nominations to represent District 3 on the county Board of Legislators. All 15 county legislative seats are up for election to new four-year terms this November, but only District 3 will see a primary.

    Candidates include Charles Bessette, Bill Dibble, Ethen T. Marble, Bill Meunier and Ricky L. Whitney. Bessette was appointed to fill a vacancy in March. Dibble previously represented the district. Whitney served as county Sheriff. Meunier is a town of Independence board member and deputy supervisor.

    Incumbents Debra Root and Dwight Fanton are not running for reelection.

    The district includes the towns of Alma, Bolivar, Independence, Genesee, Scio, Willing and Wirt.

    Town primaries include:

    • Amity town Republicans will choose two nominees for town board from candidates Joshua Brown, Harold W. Mitchell, and James F. Schneider II.
    • Town of Cuba Democrats — the only Democrats set to vote June 24 — will have a write-in only primary for a single town board seat nomination.
    • Independence Republicans will choose two nominees for town board from candidates Kimberly R. Howe, Danielle R. Freeman, and Jane Hall.
    • Willing Republicans will choose two nominees for town board from candidates Chris Perkins, Monroe Rosemier, and Roy G. Gay.

    EARLY VOTING HOURS have been set for two sites in the county.

    Belmont United Methodist Church, 7 Park Circle, will host early voting:

    • June 14, 9 a.m.-5 p.m.
