Women For Tedisco

January
30

Trying to drum up support among women for his congressional bid, Assembly Minority Leader James Tedisco’s campaign is holding this event tomorrow:

“”Women for Tedisco,” a grassroots group of Republican women supporting Jim Tedisco (R,C,I-Schenectady-Saratoga) in his bid for the 20th Congressional District will hold a rally TOMORROW at noon in Saratoga Springs.”

Democrats are eying a variety of candidates for the 20th District seat, but are certainly interested in putting a woman up for the position as a successor to Kirsten Gillibrand, who was appointed to the U.S. Senate and was able to win Republican votes in the heavily Republican district that stretches from the Hudson Valley to the North Country.
