Klinkner Quoted in Rochester Democrat and Chronicle

Philip Klinkner, the James S. Sherman Associate Professor of Government, was quoted in a recent Rochester Democrat and Chronicle article concerning the Conservative party's candidate for United States Senator. The Conservative party said they would endorse Long Island ophthalmologist Marilyn O'Grady instead of Orange County Assemblyman Howard Mills. According to experts, Mills was trailing incumbent Charles Schumer by more than 55 points. Klinkner said that the Conservative party believed Mills was a "goner anyway" and that if the race were closer he may have received their backing.
