Oswego, NY – A north country Congressman has a challenger, even though the next election is 19 months away.
Twenty-eight year-old novelist and substitute teacher W-L Swarts is mounting a campaign to unseat republican John McHugh, who's been in office since 1992.
The independent candidate is from Oneida County. WRVO's Chris Ulanowski asked Swarts about his candidacy.
