Utica Uprising has a good piece on the Oneida County Executive’s race between incumbent Republican Anthony Picente and Conservative Rodger Potocki. Along with outgoing Utica Mayor David Roefaro, Picente has been a cheerleader for MAIG’s gun control proposals in upstate. It would have been nice if the Democrats put up a candidate because it will be very difficult for Potocki to defeat him only on a minor party line.
