<description><![CDATA[ (Mar 9, 2012) Veteran North Country Republican Teresa Sayward, who won&apos;t seek another Assembly term, says she&apos;s leaning toward voting for President Barack Obama in the 2012 presidential race. Sayward made the surprise statement during an interview on YNN&apos;s program &quot;Capital Tonight.&quot;Sayward has been an advocate of gay rights and supported same-sex marriage in New York, describing it as a &quot;civil rights issue.&quot; During the interview with YNN, Sayward complained that Republicans on the national stage are pushing a religious agenda that, in her view, meddles too far in people&apos;s private lives.Sayward, a former town supervisor from Willsboro, served 10 years in the Assembly as a Republican.  A race is now underway to fill her seat, with at least seven candidates considering a run.
