Official Town Committee · Putnam County

Neighbors working for Carmel.

The Republican Committee of the Town of Carmel — neighbors in Mahopac, Carmel, and Mahopac Falls. Meet the ticket, register or check your voter record, and ask us for a lawn sign.

Who we are

A town committee for Mahopac, Carmel, and Mahopac Falls.

We stand for individual liberty, limited government, and fiscal responsibility here at home — parental rights in our schools, support for the people who keep this town safe, and a Town that spends carefully.

Facebook is where we post what is happening this week. This site is the standing record: the officers, the November ticket, how to register or work the polls, and how to ask for a lawn sign or a ballot application.

Local control

School choice, town spending, and decisions made close to home.

Public safety

We back the people who keep Mahopac, Carmel, and Mahopac Falls safe.

Families first

Parents should shape what their children learn.
