| DEMOCRATS | REPUBLICANS | 
| A proven record. | During their brief majority
in 1996-1997, they initiated no programs or benefits for our Town. 
In fact, they tried to sabotage the completion of the 50 affordable Accabonac
Apartments. | 
| Protects our quality of life. | Supports a longer runway at
our airport and use of bigger planes. | 
| Preserves our natural resources. | Zero initiatives, positions
UNKNOWN or contradictory. | 
| Experienced leaders. | No experience in elected office,
except Nancy McCaffrey who only initiated one (1) Local Law during 8 years
in office and who the voters voted out two years ago. | 
| Treats others with respect.  Ours is
the party of IN-clusion. | The same Republicans in 1996
who tried to move newly elected Supervisor Cathy Lester's office to a small
back room in Town Hall so they could install their lawyer friends in the
Supervisor's office in front, are still running the Republican Party. 
Already they have sent a mailing calling Supervisor Cathy Lester, "blundering",
"arrogant" and "incompetent." | 
| Good managers who know how to get things done. | Jay Schneiderman quits if he
doesn't get his way.  Diana Weir recently lived and worked in Washington,
and Nancy McCaffrey proposed only one (1) local law in 8 years in office. | 
| You know where they stand. | Position on issues unknown. 
However, Diana Weir supported her political boss's 100% rating from the
Right To Life Party for his votes against a women's right to choose and
his votes against gun control. | 
| Reaches out to all members of our community
for public input. | Nancy McCaffrey pits one segment
of our diverse community against the other trying to maximize resentment
between year-rounders and second home owners rather than fostering cooperation
and promotion of our townspeople's common interests. | 
| Have a definite plan for our future and have
experience to get it done. | Have never instituted any comprehensive
or long range planning efforts on behalf of East Hampton Town. |
