Capitol Pressroom sits down with Strong & Safe New York: spokesman Chapin Fay says the pro-Blakeman super PAC is running billboards and trying to "complement" a campaign that trails Hochul's war chest even with public matching funds

WCNY's Dispatches from Planet Albany podcast (Sept 11) features Chapin Fay, spokesman for the Strong & Safe New York independent-expenditure committee backing Blakeman, on how the super PAC is trying to close Hochul's fundraising gap with billboards and independent spending. The episode also covers Blakeman's message discipline, his reluctance to lean into pro-choice positioning, and the Republican-aligned McLaughlin poll. No new donor names or totals were disclosed in the episode page; the PAC's identified funders remain the Dolan/MSG money surfaced in August.
