Might Assemblywoman Lifton be vulnerable to a 2016 primary?

Should Members have the ability to get bills voted on in committee and on the floor if there is broad support among colleagues? Lifton's district, though, pretty much screamed reform in September, when Zephyr Teachout thrashed Governor Cuomo 3464-1415 in Tompkins County, the bulk of her district, and 444-304 in Cortland County, of which Lifton represent a part. To put it another way, Teachout got more votes in a Governor's race with low turnout than Lifton got in Tompkins County in the 2002 primary that began her legislative career: 3340 .
