About George
I was born and raised in Lyons, New York, where my family has proudly owned and operated Dobbins Drugs, Inc. since 1942. Growing up in this close-knit community instilled in me the values of hard work and looking out for your neighbors—values that still guide everything I do. My wife and I moved to Washington, D.C. while I was studying law at Georgetown University. We then made the deliberate choice to come home and raise our family in Lyons because this is the place that shaped us, and we want that same upbringing for our kids.
Before law school, I had the privilege of managing Brian Manktelow’s 2016 state senate campaign, which gave me valuable insight into state government and deepened my commitment to conservative principles. Now, with Brian stepping aside, I’ve decided to run for the New York State Assembly in the 130th District as a Republican. I’m honored to have earned the endorsements of both the Wayne County Republican Committee and the Wayne County Conservative Committee, as well as Brian himself. For me, this isn’t about ambition; it’s about giving back to the community that has given me so much and stepping up at a critical time for New York’s future.
As an attorney commuting from Lyons to Rochester each day, my practice is focused on commercial real estate and business. I work daily alongside developers, and investors, and job creators, based in upstate New York and across the United States. For me to be effective at my job, I have to understand all aspects of my clients’ businesses—why they do what they do, how they do what they do, what they want to accomplish today, and where they want to be in the future. That is the skill I will use when representing the 130th District.
My campaign is built around the things that keep hardworking families up at night: good jobs, strong schools, and public safety. We must fight to conserve the principles that made this country great—life, liberty, free enterprise, and rugged individualism—while delivering practical solutions at home, from Lyons to Webster. As a husband and father, I’m driven by the desire to create a prosperous, secure New York where our children can build bright futures without the burdens of overregulation or mismanagement from Albany. If elected, I pledge to be a strong, conservative, independent voice for the working people of this district, fighting every day to make sure our values and our way of life are protected and strengthened.
