Saratoga N.Y. – Today, House Republican Leadership Chairwoman Elise Stefanik released the following statement:
“I am proud to endorse Andrea Dumas to be our Republican and Conservative candidate in the upcoming special election for NY’s 115th Assembly District covering Clinton, and parts of Franklin and Essex Counties.
Andrea is a hardworking and effective local elected official who is well known and widely supported across the entire region.
As a family member of a Correctional Officer, Andrea has been strong and outspoken against Kathy Hochul’s war on our COs. She is strong on Northern border, small business, agriculture, tourism, law enforcement, and economic development issues.
She is a fighter for our veterans and seniors. Andrea is a stalwart supporter of our 2nd Amendment.
I have spoken to numerous committee members, county leaders & chairs, elected officials, the Republican State Assembly leaders, the New York State Conservative Party leaders, the NYGOP, and all are very excited about Andrea’s strong candidacy.
Andrea will flip this seat Republican and defeat whatever Kathy Hochul rubber stamp Democrat is nominated.
I look forward to campaigning with Andrea in the coming weeks.
Congratulations to Andrea! Let’s go win!”
