Local activist Mary Finneran announced on social media that she is running for state Assembly District 102 as a Democrat. Republican Chris Tague is currently the incumbent in the district that covers all of Greene and Schoharie counties. Finneran says she is not taking any money, "from corporations and lobbyists" during the campaign. In 2021 Finneran spoke about cryptocurrency mining in front of an Assembly environmental committee that included Tague.
