Golisano Takes To Airwaves

October
7

Tom Golisano is delivering messages directly to the camera in a latest round of ads supporting
Senate candidates endorsed by his Responsible New York campaign.

Here are two that are running in support of Rochester-area Democratic candidates Richard Dollinger and David Nachbar.

They carry the same theme: The incumbents are entrenched and haven’t done enough to help the upstate economy.

He’s expected to do similar ones around the state.

“I’m Tom Golisano: One more New Yorker who is tired of the dysfunction in our state Legislature,” the one ad says. “That’s what we founded Responsible New York and that’s why we are supporting Rick Dollinger for state Senate.”

As for the Nachbar one, Golisano says: “David Nachbar is a businessman who is challenging the career politicians who have made Albany dysfunctional.”

Golisano aides have said that he would take a more prominent role in the ads down the stretch of the campaigns. After all, he’s spending $5 million of his own money on them.

But initially, Golisano didn’t have a presence in the ad pieces, in particular the controversial ones that ran before the September primaries.

Here’s the latest ones:
