2018 NYS Gubernatorial challenger Larry Sharpe calls Cuomo out for his hypocritical disrespect towards women

Press Release

Larry Sharpe (L) is excited for the November 1, 2018, debate hosted by the League of Women Voters of New York State, and the opportunity it is supposed to provide the voters in seeing all of their gubernatorial candidates sharing their plans for New York State. But to this date, incumbent Governor Andrew Cuomo has ignored the invitation and his responsibility to the New York voters.
“How long will the nominee representing the Women's Equality Party ignore the League of Women Voters of New York State? His continued silence is appalling and an insult to women voters everywhere,” said Sharpe. “I am a Marine, I am not afraid of a debate. I look forward to taking part in the November 1st debate, with or without King Cuomo.”
Sharpe the only candidate in the Governor’s race to have held campaign events in all 62 counties, and continues to demonstrate his commitment to offering voters an alternative to more of the same in New York State. Sharpe has crisscrossed the state over the past year to share his messages of eliminating the state income tax, repealing the SAFE Act, innovative education options, localizing more government decisions, relieving over-regulated farmers, saving Main Street, family court reform, and stopping the population exodus from NY.
“This is the only campaign that gets Democrats, Republicans, Independents, and those who don’t vote,” said Sharpe. “We’re bringing people together from all over the spectrum with this grassroots movement.”
The debate is from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on November 1, 2018, at The College of Saint Rose in Albany. Tickets are sold out, but more seats may be made available.
