Senator-elect Tom O’Mara was put in an interesting position during Monday’s special session. He spent part of the day in his current role as an Assemblyman and the rest of the day was spent on the other side of the capitol, conferencing with the Senate Republicans, whom he’ll be joining in January.

Tom O’Mara defeated his Democratic opponent Pam Mackesey in the race to replace Republican Southern Tier Senator George Winner, who decided not to seek a third term.

Liz Benjamin caught up with the Senator-elect to get his take on the special session and his transition from one chamber to the other.
