Hochul Campaign Statement Ahead of Tonight’s Second Primary Debate

Published: June 16, 2022

NEW YORK – In tonight’s NBC primary debate, Governor Kathy Hochul will take the stage again, sharing her vision to build a safer, fairer, more affordable New York for all. After a strong performance in last week’s debate and receiving major endorsements from The New York Times and Mayor Eric Adams just this week, Governor Hochul will continue to demonstrate to New Yorkers why she is the only candidate prepared to lead this state forward, ahead of the June 28 primary.

“Governor Hochul looks forward to taking the stage tonight, and will once again stand head and shoulders above her competition — if only figuratively,” said Hochul Campaign Spokeswoman Jen Goodman. “With a 30+ point lead, endorsements from nearly every major union and elected officials from across the state, and widespread support for her gun safety and abortion rights packages, Governor Hochul is the clear choice for New Yorkers.”
