Ok, OK I know I can talk a lot! So we decided to let some other leaders from around the 44th Senate District speak instead. Thank you to Supervisor Minita Sanghvi, Councilwoman Laura Garrant, Former State Senate Nominee Thearse McCalmon, and my former Mayor Frank Tatum for speaking about what we have done together!

Who has the best chance of beating Jim Tedisco? We must answer this in June’s Primary Election for State Senate. I am a Progressive Democrat elected to serve a strongly Republican community and I have delivered genuine progressive results.

Door knocking usually involves handing out a few leaflets and shaking some hands but, in Clifton Park, we saw a neighborhood organize a makeshift wildlife rescue squad. If our community can mobilize this fast for a couple of owlets, imagine what we can do for each other when it comes to childcare, healthcare, and our community’s future. Clifton Park, you’re top-tier. Thanks for the reminder of what community actually looks like. #NelsonForNY #Wildlife #CommunityFirst #Healthcare #Childcare

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
