Assemblyman Espaillat's predecessor Brian Murtaugh promotes Mark Levine for NY State Senate

Former NYS Assemblyman Brian Murtaugh tells us why he is supporting Mark Levine for the NY State Senate (31SD). Levine is in a close race against Assemblyman Adriano Espaillat both of whom are seeking to replace Senator Eric Schneiderman. The incumbent is not seeking re-election and is instead running for Attorney General.

The interview was performed by our friends at THE UPTOWN CURRENT, northern manhattan now, a Washington Heights / Inwood blog that has declared it's support for Mark Levine. It's re-posted here unedited by us. We will add our 2 cents at the bottom in the comments section.

Murtaugh is fascinating. I can see him as an effective college teacher.

Do you believe in the one man one vote form of government?

Attorneys SD-59 Domagalski, SD-46 Breslin, SD-6 Hannon, SD-41 Saland, SD-50 DeFrancisco, SD-54 Nozzolio, SD-61 Ranzenhofer, SD-34 Schneiderman (as do others in the Senate live in the house for free(That would be their Law firm, their sponsor)) well not exactly for free but they have a sponsor and that sponsorship is worth far in excess of what a single contributor could give via the election laws.

If this were college football, the free car (ride) would ban University of Hiscoc & BARCLAY (and the others) from the game!

Unlike an unsponsored individual, a candidate that is sponsored always has money in his/her pocket and time to donate to local candidates and civic activities. With this edge, they are able to rapidly gain political momentum and before you know it a newcomer such as SD-59, Jim Domagalski of Hiscoc & BARCLAY is upon stepping down from being Erie County Republican Chairman has their endorsement and Walla, Hiscoc & BARCLAY have another NYS Senator, joining Assemblyman William Barclay and SD-46 Neil Breslin.

Perhaps the only reason there are ONLY 20 attorneys in the NYS Senate is that there just are not enough attorneys willing to step into the political arena!

This isn't exclusive at all to Hiscock & BARCLAY, current AG candidate Eric Schneiderman has been living under the roof of even larger 1900 Multi-national K & L Gates.

I'm convinced K & L Gates, the Barclay’s and the others don't believe in the one man one vote system of government and am voting for Kathleen Rice for AG & Luke Martland SD-46!

Do what you will with the rest!
