Why I’m choosing Matt Castelli

To the editor:

The Democratic primary for U.S. Congressional District NY-21 is Aug. 23, 2022. (Early voting begins Aug. 13, 2022.) I will be voting for Matt Castelli, a former CIA officer and counter-terrorism official to run against incumbent Elise Stefanik.

Stefanik’s positions are alarming and divisive, her support for democratic principles questionable and she’s been voting consistently against legislation that brings funds to the North Country. (One example is the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, just recently, with $3 million for Plattsburgh International and $1 million to Adirondack Regional airports.)

Matt is my choice because of his practical ideas, the fact that he speaks to the community without denigrating others, and most importantly, Matt has a positive, can-do attitude that is contagious!

I hope you will consider voting for Matt Castelli first as the Democratic candidate and then in November as Congressman for NY-21.
