Hudson Valley One: Wallis Running for Woodstock Town Supervisor

Journalist and former Onteora School Board member David Wallis has joined Erin Moran and Anula Courtis in the 2025 race for Woodstock town supervisor. Of the three declared candidates, Wallis is the most critical of the job performance of incumbent town supervisor Bill McKenna, whom he characterized as “a man who hated his job.”

Wallis has served as managing director of Economic Hardship Reporting Project, an award-winning non-profit newsroom. He previously was opinion editor of The Forward and deputy editor of The New York Observer. He has contributed to The New Yorker, the Washington Post, The New York Times and The Guardian, among other publications.

Himself a parent, Wallis said he became disappointed with town supervisor McKenna’s leadership in regard to the town’s youth center. More immediately, he was inspired to run for the top seat after McKenna’s handling of the town’s recent closing of its warming center.
