I graduated from Oneida High School and\u00a0Morrisville College, holding an Associates Degree in Business Administration.<\/p>\n<p>In 2009 I\u00a0retired from the New York State Police, serving as a Communications Specialist for over\u00a027 years. I\u2019m a retiree member of the Civil Service Employees Association, and a\u00a0member of both the Madison County Historical Society and American Legion Post 169.<\/p>\n<p>I was elected to the Oneida Common Council in 2009 and represented the 4th Ward until I\u00a0moved to the 5th Ward in 2012.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m currently a member of the Oneida Traffic Safety\u00a0Committee, Sign Review Board, and served on the City Charter Review Committee.<\/p>\n<p>Although I\u2019m a registered Democrat, I\u2019m running on the Republican ballot line this\u00a0November. My decision to run on the Republican line is based on my enthusiastic\u00a0support of Max Smith for Mayor this fall. Having served with Max, and seeing first hand\u00a0his leadership of the City of Oneida when our Mayor Don Hudson passed away, and\u00a0more recently the response to the devastating flood in the 4th Ward, I believe Max and the\u00a0current Common Council have earned re-election.<\/p>\n<p>There are major challenges facing the City of Oneida, and it is more important than ever\u00a0that we be vigorously represented in Wampsville as we face important issues like the\u00a0implementation of the Oneida Indian Nation settlement agreement, economic\u00a0development, and more efficient government at the city and county level.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s very important that all of us vote and meet our civic obligation to make our<br \/>\ncommunity a better place. I urge everyone to vote and ask the voters in wards 4, 5, and 6\u00a0in the City of Oneida to vote for me on November 5th.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Michael J.
