Yesterday, Chris Lee was endorsed by the Buffalo Niagara Association of Realtors. In a ”I am honored to have the support of the Buffalo Niagara Association of Realtors,” said Lee. “We share the common goal of working towards keeping the dream of homeownership alive for working families in Western New York.”
The Buffalo Niagara Association of Realtors (BNAR) is a 3,000-member association of Realtors and Realtors Associates, brokers, agents, appraisers, property managers, mortgage lenders and attorneys. The purpose of the BNAR is to maintain an orderly and efficient real estate market in Western New York.
“With the support of the Board of Directors and our membership, we want to continue to reinforce how important strong, consistent leadership is necessary for Western New York and the region to move forward economically while providing the fine quality of life the people in Upstate New York deserve,” said James Knight, 2008 BNAR president. ”Thanks to Mr. Lee’s background, position on key homeowner issues and vision for this community, we think he is just the man for the job.”
Today we also learned that Chris Lee will has received support from the NRCC:
The National Republican Congressional Committee, despite its economic woes, has put money into Chris Lee’s campaign in the 26th Congressional District.
Lee’s campaign manager, Nick Langworthy, reports that the NRCC, which has a history closely tied to the 26thDistrict, has paid about $84,200 in a television advertising buy in Buffalo. The campaign coordinated the ad buy with the NRCC and paid for the same ad, a bio piece on Lee, to air in Rochester.
Alice Kryzan, since winning the primary on Tuesday, now has the backing of the DCCC, in their Sloppy Seconds Red To Blue program.
