The costly battle being waged for state senate majority

Grant Reeher, professor of political science and director of the Campbell Institute for Public Affairs in the Maxwell School, was interviewed by the Niagara Gazette for the story “Costly battle being waged for state senate majority.”

From the article:

“Governor Cuomo has cautioned it may be more prudent for the federal government to craft a ‘Medicare for All” system rather than have New York try to blaze trails.

‘This could really put the governor in a complicated position,” said Grant Reeher, director of the Campbell Public Affairs Institute at Syracuse University. “If he does become a presidential candidate (for the 2020 election cycle), it’s not clear he would want to run on single payer. It would push the state further to the left, with higher taxes than we already have.'”
