Today's D&C race story contains this quote from a NRCC spokesman:
Officials at the National Republican Congressional Committee said they are standing by to support Reed.
“We’ve always been impressed by Tom Reed,” said spokesman Tory Mazzola.
In a few congressional districts, the NRCC has backed a second GOP candidate prior to a primary, Mazzola said.
Maggie Brooks has already met with the NRCC. I'd have expected the NRCC to keep quiet if Brooks were seriously considering a run.
That story also adds a couple possibles to the Democratic field: Canandaigua Mayor Ellen Polimeni, state Assemblywoman Barbara Lifton of Ithaca and Elmira Mayor John Tonello.
WGRZ reports that State Senator Cathy Young has repeated her vow not to run.

Sean's also got up one up today about our very own DA running, Mike Green. Of course, that's another Rochester-not-downstate bad idea, unfortunately.
