Liverpool Mayor Stacy Finney is seeking a second term after winning the village’s first contested mayoral race in 14 years in 2023.

Finney, 50, is part of a new wave of elected Democrats in the small village of Liverpool.

She grew up in Syracuse’s Strathmore neighborhood and attended Corcoran High School. Following high school, she graduated from SUNY Geneseo with a bachelor’s degree in art.

After college, she lived in Martha’s Vineyard and Vermont, where she held a variety of design and building jobs before eventually returning to Central New York.

“I remember coming home and being on my parents’ front porch and looking through the paper,” Finney said. “And I was like, ‘You can buy a house for under $100,000?’ And they were like, ‘Who would pay more than $100,000 for a house?’”
