ADRIENNE ADAMS, the Democratic candidate for New York lieutenant governor, was the special guest at the Nassau Women’s Democratic Caucus April meeting.

Running mates Governor Kathy Hochul and Adrienne Adams, the former Speaker of the NYC Council, form the historic first all-female gubernatorial ticket for a major party in New York.

Adams stressed how she and Governor Hochul are the strongest candidates for affordability, safety, and more in New York.

Then she encouraged everyone to pitch in to help get out the vote for New York State’s Democratic ‘Governor – Lieutenant Governor’ ticket: Kathy Hochul – Adrienne Adams.

And, at the end of the meeting, many did indeed add their names to the volunteer ‘GET OUT THE VOTE’ sign-up sheets they passed in front of on their way out.
