Sarah and Bill's final remarks about helping Dems win off-year elections in 2025 as one way to "do something" is important.

Here in NYS, in district NY-21, there will be a special election later this year to replace Elise Stefanik. The Democratic candidate has already been selected: Blake Gendebien, a 48 yr old dairy farmer and board member of Agri-Mark Cooperative. He is a very appealing candidate, a very good fit for the district.

I live in NY-19 where we were able to flip our house seat to Democrat Josh Shapiro last November despite Trump winning the district. I feel there is a real chance of Dems picking up this seat, especially if folks become disillusioned with Trump. I donated to Gendebien's campaign a few days ago and intend to help in other ways as the election gets closer.

Agree. I donated to his campaign also. He’s impressive, not a color by number politician. Josh Shapiro and Pat Ryan are 2 Ds who are showing everyone else how to win.
