Sandra L. Frankel was the Supervisor of the Town of Brighton, Monroe County, New York. A former school board member, Frankel served for nineteen years as town supervisor.
In 1998, Frankel won the Democratic nomination for Lieutenant Governor of New York. She lost the general election on a ticket with then New York City Council Speaker Peter Vallone. Republican Mary Donohue won the lieutenant governorship on a ticket with George Pataki.
In 2002, Frankel sought the lieutenant governorship again, but dropped out to foster party unity and endorsed Dennis Mehiel, who lost the general election on a ticket with State Comptroller Carl McCall.
Frankel was one of many names mentioned as a potential candidate for the New York's 29th congressional district election, 2010. She declined to run, leaving the race to Matthew Zeller.
