Lt. Gov. Delgado gets first big endorsement in his bid for governor at Syracuse rally
The race for New York governor came to Syracuse Tuesday as Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado made several stops across the city. The first was a conversation and rally with the grassroots group Citizen Action, where members from across Upstate gathered to show their support. Syracuse volunteer Yvonne Griffin told the crowd the state needs to do more to address serious challenges.
“We have the highest in childhood poverty, the highest in lead cases being taken to court by our Attorney general,” she said. “We need a new direction and that direction, in my opinion, is Delgado,” Griffin said to cheers.
