Gov. Paterson, who has increasingly become involved in helping Democrats try to take control of the Senate, will be Buffalo on Saturday to campaign for Sen. William Stachowski, D-Buffalo, aides said.
Paterson will join other prominent Democrats, including Sens. Hillary Clinton and Chuck Schumer, who have headed to Buffalo to help Stachowski as he tries to beat back a challenge against Republican Dennis Delano, who Republicans are still confident is going to win.
There was talk that Paterson would also head to Rochester to campaign again for Democrat Richard Dollinger, who is close with Paterson, but it doesn’t appear likely, aides said. Paterson held a fundraiser in Rochester for Dollinger recently, and transferred money from the state party to his account.
Here’s Schumer today talking up Stachowski.
