On Tuesday, a special election was held in the Tompkins County Legislature’s Third District. The election was called after the resignation of two-term Democrat Henry Gransion last year. Granison resigned due to his battle with cancer, and passed away shortly after. Local Democrats chose former Director of the Tompkins County Public Library Susan Currie as their nominee. Currie ran unopposed taking over 98 percent of the vote according to unofficial results published by the county board of elections. With Currie’s victory Democrats will return to the 11-3 majority they briefly lost after Granison resigned in October. WICB News Director George Christopher sat down with Currie to learn more about her and her goals in the county legislature.
