Krapf ousts Bartlett in race for Sheriff

HUDSON—The unofficial results of the 2021 election in Columbia County this week saw Republicans retain their hold on the Board of Supervisors and county government. But in the race for sheriff, Donald Krapf, running on the Democratic line, appears to have soundly defeated incumbent Sheriff David Bartlett, who was seeking a third four-year term. Mr. Krapf will get a hefty promotion in January when he takes over the position of sheriff; he is presently a sergeant in the county Sheriff’s Office.

GOP candidates in the towns of Claverack, Germantown, Ghent, Kinderhook and Stuyvesant all turned back challenges from Democrats. The results so far reflect the count from early voting and on November 2, Election Day. Still to be counted are absentee and military ballots that have not yet been received.

This is an off-year election, which means that there are no statewide or federal positions on the ballot. There were, however, five statewide ballot proposals to amend the state constitution. There also were library service funding proposals affecting six towns in the county. All of the library proposals were approved by voters in those towns by significant margins.

Inside we have prepared a list of the results only where there were contests for governmental offices. Many of the candidates ran unopposed. The results of all local elections are available from the Columbia County Board of Elections either in person or online by searching on the name of the board. But be aware that the Board of Elections computer system blocks some searches by Google browsers.
