LETTER: Kavanagh Supporters Go Negative

Published in Hudson Valley One on October 18, 2023

I recently had the pleasure to meet Manny Nneji, candidate for Ulster County DA. He is impressive and charismatic, with over 30 years experience as a prosecutor. The story of how he lifted himself up to where he is now could be the script for a Hollywood movie.

I have always believed in positive campaigns, where each candidate shows who they are, and we the people then decide who we prefer. It is therefore unfortunate that some of Mike Kavanagh’s supporters have chosen to go negative against Manny Nneji. Even worse, the attacks are based in lies. I guess when there isn’t much positive to say about your own candidate, then you take the low road and attack.

Manny Nneji gets my vote.
