Six Democrats and one who is not affiliated with a party are vying for the chance to unseat freshman New York Republican Congressman John Faso of the 19th District. Democratic Greene County resident Brian Flynn joined the race in the first half of 2017. This is the third of WAMC’s Hudson Valley Bureau Chief Allison Dunne’s interviews with the candidates.
Flynn says he has been an advocate and activist for decades, and running for public office is taking this to the next level.
Brian Flynn is one of six Democratic candidates looking to run against Faso in what is considered a swing district in the national spotlight. A seventh candidate is unaffiliated. The primary is June 26th.
