Observation
I don’t know if this is a sign of things to come, but I have been seeing campaign signs for Republican candidates already in Columbia, Dutchess and Ulster counties. No Democrats yet. This is a bit earlier than usual. Awhile back I saw an advertisement from a GOP-leaning PAC awhile back for a political tracker, presumably to follow Pat Ryan in NY18. I don’t know if this means the Republicans are getting their shit together or if it’s just a coincidence. I have also been getting an increase in spam from GOP candidates from all over the country looking for donations.

Democrats line up in Syracuse-area primary for Congress
Here’s an opportunity for 2A supportive Democrats to take action:
“New York’s Syracuse region is home to a congressional district that has long tantalized Democrats, but their efforts to win it have — in recent cycles — ended in failure. President Joe Biden carried what is now New York’s 22nd Congressional District by nearly 8 points in 2020. Two years later, Republican Brandon Williams, a Navy veteran and political newbie, won the seat by a few thousand votes. Now, with control of the U.S. House of Representatives potentially running through the Empire State next year, the party is eying the seat once again … Several Democrats have already launched their campaigns … Utica associate professor Clemmie Harris, a former state trooper and aide to Gov. David Paterson, is also making a bid … He lists combating gun violence among his top priorities … He argues the AR-15 should not be available for domestic purchase and says gun violence should be treated as a matter of public safety and public health …”
This guy’s a stinker. 2A wins if he loses the primary. Make it so.
