I attended the Clinton County Democratic Party meeting tonight at the American Legion and it was a packed house. Democrats from all around Clinton County were in attendance, including a large majority of the Committee members reaching well over quorum. Following the standard business the floor was opened to nominations for the 114th Assembly District, and Andy Brockway was nominated. No one made any other nominations and the vote was held giving Andy the unanimous support of the Committee.
Obviously Andy has a strong base of support in Clinton County and no other Democratic candidate has support of any significant amount in Clinton County. Hopefully the rest of the Democrats in the 114th District will consider this and Andy will be able to proceed without a Primary. If that is not the case Andy will still be sure to win a Primary and I am confident he will be our next North Country Assemblyman.
Congratulations Andy, and thank you Clinton County Democrats, you know a future Assembly member when you see one.

Andy lost a narrow Franklin County vote tonight by a count of 39-30...not bad for a Clinton County resident. So I guess that means that 75% of the leadership supports Brockway and the other 25% supports Nichols.
I know I will be working for the candidate that the majority supports!
Don't be discouraged by the Franklin County vote tonight! Its basically a 50/50 split.
