NORWICH – Anndrea Starzak, Democratic candidate for State Senate, launched her campaign tour through the Southern Tier this week which included a noontime rally in East Park in Norwich on Wednesday.

Starzak announced her candidacy for the senate seat in June, with the backing of the Chenango, Broome, Delaware and Tioga Democratic committees. Starzak said on Wednesday that she plans to use her past experience as a school teacher and Supervisor for the Town of Vestal to advocate for statewide changes in health and education, promote good jobs and fair wages, improve infrastructure, and end corruption in Albany.

“We need a new Senator who works for all of us and who will put the needs of the people above her own,” said Starzak. “It’s time for a change.”
