GEDDES, N.Y. -- Republican gubernatorial candidate for governor Marc Molinaro stopped by the Fairgrounds, to give that sausage sandwich a taste.

Part of his tour of the fairgrounds took him to Gianelli's Sausage.

The state fair focuses on New York's agricultural community.

Molinaro says many farmers are in need of help.

"I think too many farmers are struggling too hard. I've met so many upstate that feel disrespected and disregarded by this administration. Who don't feel the governor has done enough to lower cost, lower regulation and open up new opportunities,” Molinaro said.
