The former head of the Southwestern New York chapter of the American Red Cross has announced his intention to run for Chautauqua County Executive. County Legislator Vince Horrigan of Bemus Point is formerly announcing his candidacy this morning... after announcing his intentions at last night's Chautauqua County Republican reception in Dunkirk. The District 17 representative says he "fell in love" with the area 57 years ago after his family moved her from Ohio. After a 27 year career in the U.S. Air Force... Horrigan returned to the county 15 years ago to head up the local Red Cross... and, now calls Chautauqua County home. In making the announcement... he said "I care very deeply for this place." County GOP Chairman Al Hendrickson recently said there were three "good candidates" Republicans were looking at, but, declined to name them.
