We’d like to Congratulate Anna Stanko on being unanimously elected last night as the new Chairwoman of the Saratoga County Republican Committee. We’re looking forward to working together!

Saratoga County Republican Committee Names Anna Stanko Its First Chairwoman.

Longtime county public servant, small-business owner and party leader brings nearly four decades of service to the role.

SARATOGA COUNTY, N.Y. (October 22, 2026) The Saratoga County Republican Committee is proud to announce the unanimous selection of Anna Stanko as its new interim chairwoman, making her the first woman to lead the committee. Stanko was selected by the committee’s Executive Committee at a meeting this evening and will serve as interim chairwoman through February 2027.

Stanko has called Saratoga County home since 1984. She and her husband raised their family here, and today they enjoy their two daughters, two sons and four grandchildren close to home.

She has served the residents of Saratoga County since 1988 and currently works as the county's Director of Real Property. She also co-owns and operates Stanko and Sons Heating and Cooling with her husband, giving her a firsthand view of what it takes to run a small business in the county.

Stanko brings years of local leadership to the role:

- Former Chair of the Village of Ballston Spa Zoning Board

- Chair of the Town of Milton Republican Committee, 2016–2020

- Current President of the Women's Republican Club

Anna Stanko: “I'm humbled to be the first woman to lead this committee, and I hope it shows every young woman in our county that there's a place for her at the table. Saratoga County is where I raised my children, built a business with my husband and spent my career serving our neighbors. I'm ready to roll up my sleeves alongside our committee members in every corner of this county.”

The committee includes more than 350 dedicated members across the 21 towns and cities of Saratoga County. Saratoga County Republicans and its over 350 committee members stand proudly on a platform of efficient government, low taxes and public safety.

With nearly 40 years of service to the people of Saratoga County, Stanko brings deep experience in county government, small business and local party leadership to the committee's top post, and makes history as its first chairwoman.

It was a great pleasure spending time with retired Appellate Division Justice Tom Mercure of Washington County!
Justice Mercure dedicated many years of distinguished service to the people of Washington County and all of New York State. His commitment to justice, integrity, and the rule of law has left a lasting mark on our judiciary.
Thank you, Justice Mercure, for your guidance throughout my legal career and for your many years of outstanding public service!

Fool us once, shame on you. Fool us twice, shame on us. We could not allow the current town supervisor to be re-elected unopposed and we are against his proposed 34% tax increase!

Our committee has worked hard to ensure that voters in Rotterdam have a choice for town supervisor this election. We are supporting Clark Collins for Rotterdam Town Supervisor. Early voting starts Saturday, October 24 through Sunday, November 1 and Election Day is Tuesday, November 3, 2026.

Make sure to get out and vote for Clark Collins on the VOTE AFFORDABLE line, Row E.

State Senator Patricia Fahy and Republican challenger Martha McHugh faced off in a contentious Thursday night debate that saw McHugh call Fahy a liar over solar energy policy, at one point comparing the senator to a child who wouldn’t take responsibility for her actions. https://buff.ly/KshdXaN

She sure did! Marti was calm and confident and really took it to radical leftist Pat Fahy. We are proud to support Marti McHugh and can't wait until she is our Senator!

We won the debate in a rout! All you heard from Senator Fahy was how " she" is investing and spending YOUR money on everything under the sun. If big government, high taxes and crushing regulations worked our area would be a shangra la. It isn't. We are on the wrong track and Pat Fahy's record is a big reason why. NY is more expensive, Energy costs are skyrocketing and criminals are constantly let off the hook. That is her record.

Had enough?

I will better represent YOU in Albany. I share your values and I won't bow down to the special interests

Make a donation, make a call, walk to some doors- help me win this because we CAN and for the future of our area we MUST
