Dana Balter: Democrats energized in race for Congress against Rep. John Katko

Dana Balter is thrilled to be the designated Democratic candidate in the 24th Congressional District race. But she is more excited by the energy shown by those who are supporting her campaign.

Balter, D-Syracuse, clinched the designation when the Onondaga County Democratic Committee endorsed her to challenge U.S. Rep. John Katko Saturday. She already had the support of the Cayuga, Oswego and Wayne Democrats. The three county committees backed her in early February.
