Astorino Finds Support at Sullivan Co. Friends with Firearms Gun Festival – When Rob Astorino campaigns in rural upstate communities, he knows talk of repealing the New York Safe Act is like music to the electorate’s ears. “What day do you want to repeal the NY SAFE Act because we are going to get rid of that thing,” he said during a a campaign stop at Hannofee Park. The legislature would have to vote to repeal the law before any governor could take action. Though trailing in the polls, Astorino found a warm and welcoming crowd at the Sullivan County Friends with Firearms Gun Festival. “It turned regular citizens who are legal owners into criminals overnight,” said Astorino.
