Letter from Jeanne Dewey Stefanik Does Not Put Upstate First I’m glad you’re highlighting political candidates and their positions on important issues. Having real information to base one’s vote on is key to making an informed decision at the ballot box. The problem is, candidates can say anything they want, whether it is true or false.

A moderate and progressive respectively, whoever is tapped will set in stone the…
