A reader forwarded this Facebook post (actually re-post) from state Comptroller Tom DiNapoli’s campaign that describes his head-to-head against Republican Harry Wilson as “the most competitive statewide race in New York this year!”

The campaign is seeking interns (apparently unpaid, although school credit is available) to “support an honest and hard-working candidate.”

Wilson, a former hedge fund manager who has never before either run for or held elected office, is widely viewed by many Republicans as their best chance at statewide victory this fall. It seems DiNapoli agrees.

Although the playing up of one’s weaknesses to build excitement and rally the troops is a time-honored campaign tradition, this description might actually be real.
