NY-21 primary update

January 1, 1970

When I look at the Democrats’ field in NY-21, Marty Huggins famous campaign slogan comes to mind: “Bring your brooms because it’s a mess.”

Via Sun Community News:

The seven Democratic candidates running for the North Country’s lone congressional seat have raised a collective $1.4 million ahead of the June nominating content.

That’s roughly what Mike Derrick, the party’s nominee in 2016, raised during this entire 18-month campaign cycle.

That’s a real problem for Democrats looking to unseat Congresswoman Stefanik. While Stefanik has united four political parties and surpassed $1.3 million cash on hand, the seven Democrats will have to empty their anemic war chests just to escape the crowded primary…

There’s only one thing we can say with certainty: The eventual Democratic nominee will limp into the general election bruised and broke.
