Another candidate has announced their bid to try and unseat Republican 21st District Congresswoman Elise Stefanik in 2022.
On Wednesday, former Olympic speedskating hopeful Bridie Farrell posted a campaign video on her Twitter account announcing she's entering the race, joining fellow Democrats Matthew Putorti and Ezra Watson. After her athletic career ended, Farrell founded an organization that advocates for survivors of child sexual abuse. A Stefanik spokesman released a statement calling Farrell a Far-Left New York City Democrat who only registered in the district a few weeks ago.
