Ms. Teachout, who rose to prominence after she unsuccessfully
challenged Gov. Andrew Cuomo in the 2014 Democratic primary, announced her candidacy on Twitter after

«We find that we're often
challenged to disclose things that other companies wouldn't be in the position of having to consider at all, so we have to kind of find that balance between adhering to our obligations as a
publicly traded company — which we must do of course — and trying to respect the
decisions of the regulators and the request to keep things confidential,» Dunlop says.
