Deputy Orange County Clerk Kelly Eskew recently announced that she is running for Orange County Clerk. Kelly started her career in local government in 1994 at the Town of Crawford – Pine Bush. Before long she was recruited to serve as the town’s elected Tax Collector. Developing a strong reputation as a hard worker with an ability to excel working in a team setting, Kelly was encouraged by local community members to run for Town Clerk. She served a distinguished tenure as the Town of Crawford Clerk from 2002 to 2013.
“In 2014, I asked Kelly to serve as my Deputy because I knew what kind of worker she was as the Town of Crawford Clerk,” said Orange County Clerk Annie Rabbitt. “I knew that Kelly would apply her skills and experience to serve all Orange County residents and over the past seven years she has done just that, supervising more than eighty county employees and managing eleven different departments. She is the best candidate for the job hands down and I am proud to give her my endorsement.”
On top of her record of public service spanning several decades, Kelly also received the prestigious Leadership Orange Partnership Award recognizing exceptional leadership and devotion to Orange County in 2010. She was elected Town of Crawford Councilwoman where she has been continuing to serve her hometown, while also serving as Deputy County Clerk. Kelly is a public servant through and through and looks forward to meeting and interacting with voters throughout 2021.
Kelly was born and raised in Orange County. Kelly and her husband, Alan, have two children and three grandchildren. They reside in the Town of Crawford in the heart of Orange County. For more information visit www.kellyeskew.com.
