NY: Green for State Legislature

From Syracuse.com:

Syracuse, NY – A DeWitt attorney is entering the race for the open 119th Assembly District seat as the Green Party candidate.  Michael F. Donnelly, 36, of Downing Road, said people are used to Greens running for office to raise issues and change the course of the debate.

“That time is over,” Donnelly said in a prepared statement this afternoon announcing his candidacy. “In this year in this county I believe a Green can be elected. We can win, we intend to win, and we will win, but we need your help.”
