Democrat Rachel Barnhart says she has the nominating petitions she needs to put her name on the ballot for a primary to replace the late Louise Slaughter in Congress. Barnhart says she’ll decide if she wants to make the run or not in the next several days.
Much of the Democratic leadership has come together behind Assemblyman Joe Morelle for the 25th District Congressional Seat. Rochester City Councilman Adam McFadden and Brighton Councilwoman Robin Reynolds Wilt are also in the race.
Nominating petitions must be filed by April 12th.
