Hawkins and Dunlea to Kick Off General Election Campaign in Binghamton on Friday, September 21 at 11:30 AM



Howie Hawkins will kick off his Green Party Gubernatorial campaign for the general election with a news conference on Friday, September 21 at 11:30 AM at the Peacemaker Stage, 7 Court St., Binghamton.



Hawkins will be joined by Mark Dunlea, the Green Party candidate for Comptroller, who will talk about divesting the state pension fund from fossil fuels and cracking down on corruption.



Hawkins will outline why he is Plan B both for the 500,000 who recently voted for Nixon and the better choice for liberals who presently think Cuomo is their candidate.



Hawkins will discuss his agenda on climate, housing, single payer healthcare, criminal justice reform, upstate cities, job creation, and replacing Cuomo’s property tax cap with increased state revenue sharing with local governments.





Hawkins will also address the sentencing of former Cuomo aide Joe Percoco and the 1st anniversary of Hurricane Maria hitting Puerto Rico.
