Yesterday President Summers announced a historic endorsement of Bruce Blakeman for Governor.

The endorsement vote was conducted directly among NYSCOPBA’s statewide membership, marking the first time in the organization’s history that its members have been given the opportunity to participate in a statewide gubernatorial endorsement vote.

President Summers joined Mr. Blakeman, Republican candidate for Attorney General Saritha Komatireddy at the endorsement rally.

In addition, Officer Wade Carey spoke about the recent assault at the hands of two inmates which left him knocked unconscious and with a broken rib, nose, teeth at Gouverneur Correctional Facility last month
