WESTFIELD – A Westfield resident is announcing her intention to run as the Democratic Candidate for State Assembly in the 150th District.
Westfield’s Judith Einach announced earlier this week she is running against Republican Andy Goodell, who’s served the past four terms in the State Assembly.
The 150th District includes all of and only Chautauqua County and Einach said she is running because she wants to use her experience so she be a voice for county residents in Albany.
“This is an extension of what I’ve done in the past. I have a lot of experience in a wide range of fields, including agriculture, and I think I’m well suited to work on the needs and wishes of Chautauqua County,” Einach recently told WRFA.
Einach holds a Masters from the Harvard Graduate School of Education where she focused her studies on community problem solving and decision making especially around youth issues.
In 2002 she directed a successful micro enterprise development project that created almost 100 new businesses, many of which continue to this day and have grown into business that create jobs.
Einach is the daughter of Victor Einach, one of the great civil rights leaders in WNY and in the State. Her mother Irene was eleven when women won the right to vote. She grew up learning from adults talking principles and politics.
“I’m honored to have been asked to run for the Assembly. I’m ready for this. I’m ready to restore Chautauqua County’s good name in the NY Assembly,” she said.
