The Missing Candidate

I attended a candidates forum in Amherst tonight, it was well attended (I would say about 50 people or so) and featured many candidates, including those seeking to represent Genesee County in Congress and the State Senate. Here's the Rundown:

Alice Kryzan: Check

 Joe Mesi: Check

 Mike Ranzenhofer: Check

 Chris Lee: MIA

I can say that Chris Lee's absence did not play well among the crowd tonight. I overheard one woman, who said that she's a life-long Republican, say that she's voting for Kryzan because she felt that Lee didn't care about her vote enough to show up....ouch.....

 I give full credit to the rest of the candidates, even Mike Ranzenhofer (whom I've been very critical of) for at least showing up, without getting into the merits of their issues, they at least came to present themselves. Where in the world is Christopher Lee? *Crickets Chirp*

I guess that as he is running on the Republican line its automatic he will be elected. I was also on the fence but
he has lost my vote. As my wife had her job sent overseas
I am a bit prejudiced. Maybe he can run for Congress in
China.

Douglas: We spoke to Chris Lee about the China job issue. He calls the DCCC attack ads against him totally inaccurate. You can read more here.
