The founding mayor of West Hampton Dunes, who is the longest currently serving village mayor on Long Island, was one of six incumbents unseated in three of seven recent Hamptons village elections.
Irwin Krasnow unseated West Hampton Dunes Village Mayor Gary Vegliante, who has led the village for three decades, by a margin of 159 to 104 votes and two trustees were unseated in that race. Southampton Village Deputy Mayor Gina Arresta lost her seat after four years on the board. And two challengers unseated a pair of incumbent trustees in the Village of Sagaponack.
