  Howard Mills - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Howard Mills was a Republican New York assemblyman from Middletown who ran against Senator Charles Schumer of New York in the 2004 U.S. Senate election but lost in a landslide.
Mills served as a councilman and later supervisor in the town of Wallkill, Orange County, New York—not to be confused with the hamlet of Wallkill in Ulster County—before being elected to the State Assembly in 1998.
Mills had been considered a potential candidate for the State Senate or Congress in 2008, but many political observers believe his ethical lapses will be too great a hurdle to overcome in any future bid for elective office.
