Four new legislators sworn in at Chautauqua County organizational meeting
The Chautauqua County Legislature swore in four new members—Sandra Lewis, Jason Merritt, Vince DeJoy and Robert (Bob) Whitney—during its Jan. 2, 2026 organizational meeting. The swearing was administered by Parliamentarian Nathan Harp, and members were reminded to complete and notarize their written oaths before leaving the chamber.

There were two scheduled privilege-of-the-floor periods for public comment; no members of the public spoke during either period. After completing organizational votes and announcements, including designation of official newspapers and leadership appointments, a motion to adjourn was carried and the meeting ended at 4:20 p.m.
