It just doesn't get much better than this. I've been a Dem committee member (city, county and, more recently, state) for some time, and I never thought I would see the day that a Democrat could possibly take this Congressional district.
Here's some links to the latest:
1. Channel 2 (WGRZ-TV) is hosting a debate between Hochul and Corwin this morning.
"Two On Your Side and the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle will host a debate between two major candidates for the 26 Congressional District seat on Thursday, May 12th.
Republican Jane Corwin and Democrat Kathy Hochul have agreed to take part in the debate.
Independent candidate Jack Davis orginally agreed to participate in the debate, but backed out Wednesday..."

The Erie County GOP sent out an email last evening with a Youtube link alleging Davis assaulted one of their volunteers. The 14-second clip doesn't definitively show Davis touching the volunteer (and, in my opinion, the Republicans certainly have enough money to hire better actors - check out the clip), and so far they have refused to release the full video, or the one taken by another volunteer standing farther away. I'm sure this story isn't played out yet - I can't wait for the rest!
