Blake Gendebien Targets NY-21

Dairy farmer Blake Gendebien has won the Democratic nomination in New York’s 21st District, defeating businessman Stuart Armoriell with 66% of the vote. Though he initially aimed to fill a special election vacancy, Gendebien now eyes November’s general election to represent this traditionally Republican-leaning district — the last Democrat to hold the seat was back in 2012. He’ll face whoever wins the GOP primary between Assemblyman Robert Smullen and Sticker Mule CEO Anthony Constantino. With national political winds shifting and local support from agricultural groups, Gendebien’s campaign is gaining momentum as Elise Stefanik, the 12-year incumbent, steps aside. November 3rd: the date to watch. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
