Marc Molinaro, the Dutchess county executive and Republican candidate for governor this fall against Andrew Cuomo, could be seen on Main Street, Cooperstown, a few minutes ago. Here, accompanied by Hartwick Town Republican Chairman Joe Marmorato, he chats with Andrew Vilacky, proprietor of Safe At Home Collectibles, who said he was favorably impressed by the GOP standardbearer. The candidate said he stopped by en route home from Utica, where he ran in the annual Boilermaker this morning. He said he’ll be back in the county Aug. 1 as keynoter at the county Republican Women’s Club annual fashion show at The Otesaga. (Jim Kevlin/AllOTSEGO.com)
