BAINBRIDGE – Assemblyman Clifford W. Crouch announced today that he will again seek re-election to the 122nd Assembly seat. Crouch has served in the Assembly since 1995, and he has proudly represented the Southern Tier for 23 years.

“After receiving such strong support and encouragement from my constituents, I have decided to again seek re-election to the Assembly,” said Crouch. “Serving the people of the 122nd Assembly District has been the one of the greatest privileges of my life. I promise to continue to advocate for common-sense solutions to make the Southern Tier safer for our kids, more dynamic for our families, and more affordable for our seniors."
