First hour: Tracy Mitrano; Assemblyman Harry Bronson
Second hour: Nate McMurray, 27th Congressional District candidate
We continue our series of interviews with candidates for political office. In our first half hour, we’re joined by Tracy Mitrano, the Democrat challenging Congressman Tom Reed in the 23rd District. She joins us from the WEOS studio to share her platform and priorities. Congressman Reed did not return multiple invitations to appear on the program. In our second half hour, Assemblyman Harry Bronson joins us in studio. He’s the Democratic incumbent representing District 138. We’ll talk with him about what he hopes to accomplish in Albany if reelected; issues impacting the LGBTQ community, including GENDA; and more. Bronson’s opponent, Patsy Iacovangelo, did not return multiple invitations to appear on the program.
Then in our second hour, we sit down with Nate McMurray once more before the election. The Democrat is hoping to unseat Congressman Chris Collins in the 27th District. The race drew national attention after Collins was indicted in August in connection with insider trading. The Collins campaign denied an invitation to participate in this program; businessman Larry Piegza – who is running on the Reform Party line – is not available to join the conversation.
