The unions for the Rome, Whitesboro and Vernon police departments have endorsed candidate Todd Carville for Oneida County District Attorney, along with a second state police union.

“We appreciate the efforts and dedication from Todd over the years of his service. Todd’s experience and leadership is an asset to the county and we are happy to support him,” said Jeff Buckley, president of the Philip S. McDonald Police Benevolent Association, which represents officers in the Rome Police Department.

“It is with great pleasure that the members of the John J. Buley Police Benevolent Association endorse Todd Carville for the position of district attorney,” said John Scholl, president of the Buley PBA, which represents the officers in the Whitesboro Police Department.

“Along with my fellow patrol officers of this agency, we support your decision to run for the Oneida County District Attorney Office,” said Marden Landry, president of the Vernon Police Benevolent Association.

“The members and myself see you have a long time standing as a prosecutor and impeccable reputation,” Landry added.

Carville also received an endorsement from the New York State Police Investigators Association, which represents active and retired members of the Bureau of Criminal investigation with the state police. Carville has previously been endorsed by police unions for the Utica and Oriskany police departments, and the Police Benevolent Association of the New York State Troopers, which represents state police ranks trooper to major.

Carville, who works as an assistant district attorney, is so far running unopposed for the position of Oneida County’s top prosecutor.

He is chief of the homicide bureau and has been with the office for 20 years. He is a Republican.

Election Day is set for Tuesday, Nov. 7. Incumbent Oneida County District Attorney Scott McNamara has announced that he is not running for reelection.
