Hello, I am running in Albany, New York for mayor for the second time. I am a Democrat who wants to transform how Albany operates from the inside out ; eradicate the issues that anger the residents and rebuild the city internally to eliminate blight. Any questions you can contact me on my direct access line at (518) 253-1028, or leave a voice message on my speak up line at (518) 512-1329.

And I thought it was Jesse Johnson, who ran for president and governor of WV last year!
For a second I thought this was about Gary Johnson, former governor of New Mexico. ;_;
