DeSpirito Formally Backs Levy for Governor

To follow up on an earlier post, Onondaga County GOP Chairman John DeSpirito is now officially backing Democrat-turned-Republican Steve Levy for New York State Governor. No surprise. It was very clear that the fix was in when DeSpirito stood with Levy and State GOP Chairman Ed Cox at Levy’s announcement that he was joining the race. DeSpirito originally supported Erie County Executive Chris Collins, who never took the plunge, before endorsing Rick Lazio two months ago.
