GOP Lieutenant Governor Choice Is SAFE Act Opponent – GOP candidate for governor Rob Astorino says his choice for a Lieutenant Governor running mate will be the Chemung County Sheriff, Chris Moss, an avid opponent of Governor Andrew Cuomo’s gun control laws.  Moss, who would be the first  African American the state GOP would pick for Lieutenant Governor, is head of the New York State Sheriffs’ Association.  In an interview with the Elmira Star Gazette, Moss called  parts of the gun control laws championed by Cuomo “ludicrous” and a “knee jerk reaction” to the Sandy Hook tragedy.
