"I’m so grateful to the Angelica Sweet Shop for this opportunity to share our campaign with the people, and make our case that Austin Morgan for State Senate is the best way to carry on Cathy Young’s legacy in Albany," Morgan said. The candidate and his staff will set up a large, white tent in front of the Angelica Sweet Shop at 44 West Main St. Donations made to his campaign will be rewarded with an ice cream treat, courtesy of the Sweet Shop.
A circle of comfortable chairs will create a casual environment to meet Austin and share your concerns and hopes for the future of the 57th Senate District. When elected, Austin will become a Democratic Majority caucus member and a powerful voice for this region. In Albany, his immediate strength in the decision-making process will have significant economic benefits for our rural towns and villages.
This meet and greet visit coincides with Angelica’s 50th annual Heritage Days event, so plan to take part in the community-wide festivities and make a day of it while you’re in town. See the schedule of events at https://angelicaboosters.com/heritage-days

Austin Morgan is a son of Freedom, NY, rooted in the proud working-class tradition of our region. As a first-generation graduate of Cornell University, an educator, a former business manager, and a former State Senate employee, Austin has the experience and vision necessary to lead the 57th district.
At a time when we are grappling with population and opportunity loss, Austin believes that a fresh perspective and new energy are key to restoring the promise of our communities. "Albany has forgotten Freedom for decades, along with too many of the towns and villages we call home. I am running to change that," Austin said. "It's time to rip out the pages of the political playbook that say to wait in line—we cannot wait any longer. We need a State Senator with a vested interest in our future—someone with the plans and power to create positive growth, not someone who will sit on the sidelines and tow the party line. It’s time to put people over politics and help our counties."
