We discuss what's next for the Republican primary in the 133rd State Assembly District after the death of Assemblyman Bill Nojay. Nojay was pursuing re-election when he died by suicide last week.
His challenger in the Republican primary is Rick Milne, Mayor of Honeoye Falls. Milne will not automatically be granted a spot on the ballot in November. Instead, Nojay's name will remain on the primary ballot, and if he wins, the party chairs will select a candidate to replace him in the November election.
We talk to Milne about how the race will move forward, his campaign, and his thoughts on the tragedy.
