From Johanna Barr in City Hall News:
If her fundraising totals are any indication, Didi Barrett looks poised to mount a serious challenge against incumbent Stephen Saland in New York’s 41st Senate District [which covers Columbia County]. Barrett [who campaigned throughout Hudson last weekend] has raised $161,196 this cycle. Her campaign also reported that it had gathered more than 3,700 signatures. Marian Rivman, Barrett’s communications director... said the campaign’s goal for this cycle had been to raise more than $132,000, which was the amount of cash Saland had on hand when Barrett first entered the race. Saland is a 20-year incumbent who served in the State Assembly for ten years, from 1980 through 1990, before moving to the Senate. If elected, Barrett would be the first Democrat to hold the seat in 100 years. The last was Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Read the entire story in City Hall News.
