Ed Cox Gears Up Campaign Against Jeanine Pirro
Markos at Daily Kos wrote yesterday that Jeanine Pirro has not sewn up the Republican nomination for the New York Senate race. Ed Cox previously has said he's still in the race. Monday, he issued this press release, which shows he considers himself a serious contender.
Cox's schedule will be a combination of private meetings with party leaders, as well as appearances at public and political events for the Republican and Conservative Parties. He will also be taking time to meet with local media in each location.
In addition to Jefferson County, Cox is slated to visit Wayne, Livingston, Wyoming, Erie, Broome, Ontario, Onondaga, Monroe, Steuben, Genesee and New York counties as well. By the end of the week he will have visited nearly half of New York's 62 counties this summer.
Many will say Jeanine made a mistake in choosing to run for the Senate instead of for New York Attorney General. She's a prosecutor and the AG's spot would have made her New York's top cop. Instead, she's positioning herself in a no-win situation: She's too centrist for Republicans, and not as popular as Hillary. It's early, but this is shaping up to be a fun race to watch.
