Zephyr Teachout and U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand
Matt Ryan



It's the last full day of campaigning for candidates all across the state including Zephyr Teachout, who hit the trail Monday with U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand. 

The Democratic congressional candidate is in a tight battle with Republican challenger John Faso to replace the retiring Rep. Chris Gibson.  The last Siena College Research Institute poll showed Teachout down by six points, after all previous polls in this race showed a virtual dead heat.

We caught up with her today in Troy, where she stopped at a local diner and campaign headquarters, to ask her about the barrage of negative ads coming from both sides in the campaign and if she is worried about the latest polling in the 19th District.
