Endorsements and DA race preview Our general-election coverage is in two parts this year. In this issue are our endorsements for Monroe County executive, County Legislature, City Council, and the Rochester school board. There’s also a preview of the district attorney race. In next week’s issue (November 2) will be interviews with the contenders for county executive: Democrat Sandra Frankel and Republican incumbent Maggie Brooks. (Brooks’ schedule determined how we planned our coverage.) In the races for school board and City Council, we urge you to keep the incumbents in office. In the

races for county executive and County Legislature, we urge you to vote for Democrat Sandra Frankel and to return the Lej to Democratic control. Frankel has good ideas for addressing the county’s most pressing issues, and she has significant experience as an elected executive. She’s also shown that she can turn a government’s finances around. But Frankel will need a Democratic Legislature to make the dramatic changes the county needs.
