Matt Doheny said he's going to keep on keepin' on, regardless of whether the Conservative Party chair likes it or not.

Statement from Matt Doheny 21st Congressional Candidate on Chairman Long's Call for Surrender

Matt Doheny proudly carried the Conservative Party banner in 2012,  is endorsed by five county committees and in 2014 one of every five conservatives throughout the district signed his petition. Matt is a true conservative philosophically, on the issues and most importantly in the hearts and minds of the people of the North Country. 

Last Friday, after thwarting the will of rank and file conservatives throughout the North Country, State Conservative Chairman Mike Long told the Glens Falls Post Star that "They’d rather see Mr. Doheny not run, so there’s a better chance of winning the general election."  

Essentially, Long on behalf of the Washington insiders who want to control this seat, was asking Doheny to surrender - to which we offer the following reply:

 "To Chairman Mike Long: Nuts! North Country Conservative, Matt Doheny."
