I'm in Kirsten Gillibrand's former district, NY-20 until now. She was very popular here and she's proven to be a terrific senator. But I wish I knew where you got your bumper sticker. I've had three, I think, but the first one fell apart and the other two fell off somewhere... 
Unfortunately, we're now redistricted, and I was looking forward to voting against teabagger Chris Gibson again. I worked for Scott Murphy, Kirsten Gillibrand's replacement in Congress, on both of his campaigns. He was smart, sincere and did a lot for the district, Agriculture and Armed Services Committee, farmers and veterans, and agreed with Gillibrand on most issues. 
I was at his debate with Gibson and a lot of the voter disapproval seemed to come from his vote in favor of health care reform. There was a sea of red shirted senior citizens, figure they had to have been bused in, who were very vocal and rude towards Scott. I called them "senior citizens against health care..." 
I'm just north of GF, so we're no longer NY-20. The Democratic candidate for Congress is now Bill Owens from Plattsburgh, while Scott Murphy lived right in town here. I don't know much about Owens except that he voted with the Republicans to censure Eric Holder, while most of the Democrats walked out. I'm voting for him, since the alternative is much worse, but I'm not happy.
Here's to voting more Democrats into the House!
