Excerpts~
State Senate candidates are entitled to their own opinions, but not their own facts. The latest round of mailers and television ads from both sides aren't faring well under scrutiny.

A Democratic State Committee mailer in residents' mailboxes this week distorts the facts about Republican David A. Renzi's state pension. And Mr. Renzi is misrepresenting state Sen. Darrel J. Aubertine's obligations to the state after hiring his sister. He's also using outdated information to mislead voters about what Mr. Aubertine, D-Cape Vincent, stands to receive from a private wind power contract.
