The upstate county that bucked the blue wave

ONEIDA OUTLIER: When in Rome, vote Republican if you want to do as the locals do. As the blue tsunami crashed over the country last week, a comprehensive list of silver linings for New York Republicans could fit on a post-it note. But it was a great night for the party in Oneida County. Assembly candidate Mike Gentile flipped the seat that covers the cities of Utica and Rome and has remained stubbornly blue for decades. The Assembly seat was the only GOP pickup in the state Legislature’s 213 districts on a night when Democrats managed to flip 23% of the 69 seats that Republicans had won in 2024. Meanwhile, Republican Jared Pearl ousted the county’s Democratic Sheriff Robert Maciol. A four-term incumbent, Maciol won his 2022 race with 79% of the vote. And the county was responsible for electing Republican Anthony Constantino to Congress. Democrat Blake Gendebien flipped the rest of that district. While Republican Elise Stefanik won the district’s 14 non-Oneida counties by 69,000 votes two years ago, Gendebien won them by 1,500. But Constantino won Oneida by 6,800 last week. The GOP congressional campaign focused on driving up turnout in the candidate’s home turf, a corner of

Adjusting to hot weather deer hunting amid a warm fall | Column

Hopefully, the hot weather archery season is over, and we can get back to some normal temps. We expect cool and sometimes cold temperatures during bow season. Most deer hunters in the northern states imagine their time in the woods to be in cool, if not frigid weather. We dress for it, plan on it, discuss and buy our camo and gear for colder temperatures to be able to deal with the cold days in the woods. But things have changed. October of 2026 had to be one of the warmest on record here in the Northeast, specifically Western New York. It rained at the end of the first week of the bow season, and then was bone dry well into November, despite the prognostications of the weather experts that since we are in an El Nino year, our autumn would be warmer (they got that right) and wetter than usual. Wrong on the latter. Didn’t rain for almost a month! Yes, there are those of us who yearn for cool ... some call it cold weather. We've had enough of the summer heat, don't mind scraping frost off our windshields in the morning, and glad to say good riddance
