Although The Free George does not endorse political candidates, we do strongly believe in the right of all candidates to be heard. Most media outlets today refer to third-party candidates as unnecessary or “fringe”; we disagree with this assessment & feel it is important to give them a platform. With 58% of Americans supporting the need for a third party, our coverage of the NY Gubernatorial race will focus on some of these viable third party candidates.
