Syracuse, NY – With Election Day only four weeks off, three candidates for major offices will bring their campaigns to the Syracuse area today.
Syracuse resident Howie Hawkins, the Green Party candidate for governor, will meet the media at 11 a.m. to talk about his plan to reduce property taxes. The news conference is in front of the Onondaga County Courthouse on Columbus Circle if the weather is good, or at local Green Party headquarters, 2617 S. Salina St., if it’s not.
Joe DioGuardi, the Republican/Conservative candidate challenging Democrat Kirsten Gillibrand for her U.S. Senate seat, plans a news conference at 11 a.m. at Rural/Metro Medical Services, 488 W. Onondaga St., followed by a meet-and-greet at 12:30 p.m. at the Dinosaur Bar-B-Que, 246 W. Willow St.
Gillibrand will follow him at 3:30 p.m. with an appearance at SRCTec Inc., 5801 E. Taft Road, Cicero. She plans to talk about how to spur manufacturing job growth and move toward clean energy production, including bills that would provide grants and tax credits to manufacturers whose products go into alternative energy projects. Gillibrand also has the Independence and Working Families lines.
