After two decades in Albany, Pataki says he’s “disappointed” by corruption

Apr 23, 2015 — Yesterday we heard that former Governor George Pataki — who spends part of each year on his farm in the North Country — is seriously considering a run for the White House.

One part of Pataki’s political record is that he served two decades in Albany, one of the most corrupt state capitals in the country. He served as an Assemblyman, a state Senator and finally for three terms as governor.

This week, our Adirondack reporter Brian Mann asked Pataki about the latest round of scandals. Pataki says he doesn’t think Albany’s scandals will affect his own reputation or his shot at a presidential bid.
