Reports this morning have it that Congressman Bob Turner (Republican, NY-9) is being “touted” to run against U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand who is up for a full term in November 2012.
But sources tell GestetnerUpdates.Com that instead of being “touted” to run, Mr. Turner is looking to warn the Albany bosses that they should not dice and slice him out during redistricting. If yes, the signal is ‘Turner will be willing to use the broad support he gained in the Special Elections just months ago to build an effort to upset Gillibrand next year; a Senator of whom only 41% in a Marist poll a month ago said did a good or excellent job.’
Said one activist who worked tirelessly to help Turner win, “We didn’t work day and night; we didn’t raise and spend thousands of dollars to have Mr. Turner get cutout just because some senior politician someplace in New York has other math and interests on his mind. We will fight all the way to protect it!”
