Blakeman plans 'Fire Kathy Hochul' rally at Elmira Elks Lodge Oct. 28
New York Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman will bring his down-to-the wire campaign to Elmira on Wednesday, Oct. 28. The two-term Nassau County executive seeking to oust Democratic governor Kathy Hochul will headline a GOP rally at the Elmira Elks Lodge, 300 E. Gray St., at 10:30 a.m. Blakeman will be accompanied by Republican Rep. Nick Langworthy at the Elmira event, which is being billed as a “Fire Kathy Hochul Rally.” With early voting already underway and election day in about one week, Oct. 28 will be a busy campaign day for Blakeman and Langworthy. In addition to Elmira, the Republicans are also scheduled to hold “Fire Hochul” gatherings in Owego, Hornell and Olean on Wednesday. The Blakeman campaign has touted putting "New York state First," with proposals to cut state income taxes, reduce utility bills and reverse what he calls "soft-on-crime" bail laws. At a campaign event in Syracuse on Oct. 9 that featured President Trump, Blakeman called New York state "number 50 in economic outlook" under Hochul's leadership. "We have to create good jobs, good benefits to keep our young people here," Blakeman said. "We have to look at business not as the enemy but as a partner.
