Bobbie Anne Cox Discusses NYS Governor Campaign - State of Greater Western New York

With the November 3 election just weeks away and early voting starting October 24, attorney and Brownstone Institute Fellow Bobbie Anne Cox is on the campaign trail as a surrogate for Bruce Blakeman, the Republican and Conservative Party candidate for Governor of New York. What’s driving her involvement, and how does her experience fighting government overreach in Albany inform the race against Kathy Hochul? Click the link below for this week’s episode of The State of Greater Western New York Report and hear her take on the issues shaping the campaign.

In the first half of the show, host Chris Carosa welcomes Bobbie Anne Cox, the New York civil rights attorney best known for her successful lawsuit that struck down Governor Hochul’s unconstitutional “quarantine camps” regulation. Cox explains why she joined the Blakeman campaign after years of litigation and advocacy on constitutional issues, parental rights, Second Amendment protections, and government overreach. She discusses Blakeman’s record as Nassau County Executive, the contrast with Hochul’s policies on taxes, energy costs, crime, and immigration, and why she believes the race is competitive enough to matter for Greater Western New York. She also explains why she, as a registered Democrat, has concerns about the current direction of her party.

In the second half, Cox digs into specific campaign themes she’s been highlighting on the trail—affordability, utility bills, public safety, and restoring balance after years of one-party control in Albany. She also reflects on recent developments in the race, including the October 13 debate, and what voters in the 17 western counties should be watching as the campaign enters its final stretch. The conversation ties her legal background fighting Hochul-era policies to the broader case for change on November 3.
