Patricia Doxsey in The Daily Freeman reports that it may be June before Columbia County voters have any representation in the State Assembly, after current 103rd Assembly District rep Marc Molinaro becomes Dutchess County executive on Jan. 1. Gov. Andrew Cuomo would have to call a special election to fill the seat -- and his office is not returning Doxsey's queries.

That would mean that no one represents Columbia and Dutchess county in the State Assembly during the next legislative session. And they might have two elections on the same day -- filling in a temporary replacement, and choosing primary candidates for the office's regular election in November. Meanwhile, “I’ve gotten permission to keep my office open so, while I won’t be there, staff will still be available to provide constituent services,” Molinaro told Doxsey.
