Richard Hanna may be retiring from Congress in a couple of weeks but he is giving some thought to seeking another job closer to home.
The Oneida County Republican has been a member of the House of Representatives for six years. He did not run for reelection this year.
Hanna previously has said he had been asked to consider running for governor in two years.
During an interview Tuesday on WNBF Radio’s Binghamton Now program, Hanna said “a bunch of people” have urged him to think about being a candidate in 2018. He didn’t identify those who’ve been pushing a possible run.
Hanna indicated he is giving greater consideration to the possibility. He said “the more I think about it, I’ve got time, I’ll work through it.”
Hanna said he’s “not a big fan” of Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo. He said he believes there are “a number of things” Cuomo has done “that are thoroughly offensive to just about everybody in the state.”
