Golisano Test Tomorrow

A couple of primary races for Senate and Assembly occur tomorrow where Tom Golisano is meddling by throwing his money around and will give a bit of indication if this charade he is involved in is having any impact.

Democratic primaries occur in western New York in both the 144th Assembly race and 61st Senate race. In the Assembly primary between Barbra Kavanaugh and incumbent Sam Hoyt, Golisano's money is on Kavanaugh and in the 61st Senate district a three way primary between "Baby" Joe Mesi, Michele Iannello and Dan Ward, Golisano has his money on Mesi in this race.

Golisano's main man in his "Responsible New York" pac is Steve Pigeon who is former chair of the Erie County Democratic committee and who should know the politics of these races. It will be embarrassing if Golisano picks the wrong horse in either of these races.

I want to see Joe Mesi (that is pronounced may-see) win but it is no sure thing.
