LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF THE TWIN TIERS...THIS TUESDAY IS ELECTION DAY IN CORNING AND THE BIG RACE IS THE MAYORAL SQUARE OFF BETWEEN DEMOCRAT FRANK COCCHO AND REPUBLICAN RICH NEGRI.
COCCHO HAS TWENTY-ONE YEARS OF SERVICE UNDER HIS BELT AS AN ELECTED OFFICIAL IN CORNING--AND THAT INCLUDES TWO YEARS AS MAYOR. NEGRI IS NOW IN HIS SIXTH YEAR ON THE CORNING CITY COUNCIL. MY PREDICTION IS THAT NEGRI IS LIKELY TO WIN BECAUSE HE IS A REPUBLICAN IN A REPUBLICAN CITY.
THAT SAID, I THINK THAT DEMOCRAT FRANK COCCHO IS THE BEST MAN FOR THE JOB. YOU SEE... ALTHOUGH COCCHO AND NEGRI ARE BOTH GREAT GUYS WHO BOTH LOVE CORNING...COCCHO HAS A LOT MORE EXPERIENCE THAN NEGRI AS BOTH AN ELECTED OFFICIAL AND FORMER MAYOR.
COCCHO'S EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE WILL SERVE THE PEOPLE OF CORNING WELL. IN MY VIEW, FRANK COCCHO ALSO HAS THE CHARM, CHARISMA, GRAVITAS, LEADERSHIP, AND KNOW HOW TO SHINE AS THE MAYOR OF CORNING.
THE BOTTOM LINE: RICH NEGRI IS LIKELY TO WIN BUT I THINK THE UNDERDOG FRANK COCCHO IS BY FAR THE BEST MAN FOR THE JOB.
WITH COMMENTARY...I'M DR. STEPHEN HURRICANE COLEMAN THE THIRD...THAT'S MY OPINION...WHAT'S YOURS?
