HUNTINGTON STATION, N.Y., Dec. 30, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Voters in both Nassau and Suffolk Counties have spoken at the polls, recently electing or re-electing water commissioners in 21 Long Island commissioner-run water districts.

This ensures that the majority views and opinions of the residents in each community are respected. Every vote counts and every vote is counted.
