This from Democracy for the Hudson Mohawk Region, which is affiliated with the progressive, anti-war group that is similar to the Democracy for America PAC which I’m told was formed from the ashes of the Howard Dean campaign. Democracy for the Hudson Mohawk, though, is not a PAC.
Their platform is:
1. An end to the War in the Middle East and a return of our Troops home;
2. Promoting clean elections and campaign finance reform (good luck)
3. Ensuring fair and accurate elections through paper ballot/optical scan devices
4. Providing access to health care for all either through single payer or an alternative.

Their picks are:
Kirsten Gillibrand -NY 20-running for re-election to the House of Representatives;Tim Gordon –NY Assembly-running for re-election to the NYS Assembly;Mark Blanchfield -NY Assembly 105 seeking to unseat George Amedore;

Bahram Keramati -NY Senate 44 seeking to unseat Hugh Farley; and
Mike Russo –NY Senate 43 seeking the open seat vacated by Joseph Bruno.

Hudson-Mohawk had earlier endordsed Phil Steck who is seeking the Democratic primary nod in the 21st.
