Incumbent Kemp Hannon, R-Garden City, was re-elected to his 13th term Tuesday after defeating opponent Ryan Cronin, D-, in the race for 6th Senate District.

Hannon captured 52.37 percent of the total vote against the non-incumbent, Cronin.

“I want to thank each and every resident who came out to vote, especially given the very difficult situation facing most Nassau County residents, particularly those who are still without power after the devastating storm from last week,” Hannon. said. “Exercising one’s right to vote is one of our most important fundamental freedoms, and Nassau County residents overcame many great obstacles to do so.”

Hannon was first elected to state senate in 1989 and and was re-elected to a 12th term in November 2010.

The 6th Senatorial District includes Bethpage, East Meadow, Farmingdale, Plainview, Plainedge, Massapequa, Uniondale, Lakeview, Hempstead, Garden City, Levittown, Salisbury, Island Trees, Franklin Square, Garden City South and a small portion of Wantagh and Seaford.

just reading Jane Goodall with my son for school and came across this quote of an amazing womanRead More "every individual matters, every individual has a role to play, every individual makes a difference." that is what makes our nation, our village so great everyone has an opinion whether we agree with it or not. It just saddens me to think some may not voice their opinion in the future because of the rather harsh comments which I'm sure were just meant to get a point across rather than be hurtful. Garden City residents are not afraid to get involved, to stand up for what they believe in and I am proud to live here.
