As of Thursday, June 18, no school districts in Rockland have reported that their budgets failed, while many of the incumbent school board members look likely to maintain their seats.

In May, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo issued an Executive Order that said all school elections will be held by mail, later rescheduling them and extending the final date for ballots to Tuesday, June 16.

Some results are in, with others expected later in the week on Thursday or Friday.

  • Clarkstown: Incumbents Zizette Deutsch (6,365 votes), and David Gosman (5,671) retained their seats ahead of candidate Philip DeGaetano (4,882).

  • Nanuet: Incumbents Anne Byrne, Edward Dingman, and Lynn Fahmi were all re-elected with more than 2,200 votes apiece.
