Thoroughly enjoyed the forum tonight. Wonderful turn-out of candidates, though would have appreciated more Democrats. Thank you so much for organizing it!
Jeff, Tom and Tim, great job! Well done. Just what the Albany area needed in the way of good old fashion politics. Keep up the good work.
We were glad to put it on. I only wish it had been better attended.
