“Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it”-Ronald Reagan
Brooklyn, NY – Nov. 1…The New York State Conservative Party today announced that it is airing a 60-second radio commercial statewide in support of Rep. Lee Zeldin for governor.
The spot, titled “The Accidental Governor” can be heard here. It will run through Election Day on stations across New York.
Editorial: Another ethics flub/What part of “distance yourselves from the people you oversee” is unclear? Thankfully, the Albany Times Union chose to report this Hochul debacle.
State of ‘denial’: Hochul calls crime woes GOP ‘conspiracy,’ NYers say it’s real. It is unbelievable what the Governor of New York said on MSNBC’s “PoliticsNation,” Sunday. To call the horrendous videos a GOP conspiracy tells the listeners that the pain and anguish the victims are experiencing means absolutely nothing to her; except if it happens in Buffalo where she exploited it to raise funds. What Kathy Hochul said is reprehensible.
It is a good thing our government is run by We The People and not elected officials: Fetterman Fades in Post-Debate Poll. And it is imperative that candidates debate each other, even if they are only willing to debate once.
This should be interesting: Biden, Harris to make rare campaign appearance as duo to help Fetterman. The disconcerting thing about this, is that it shows how democrats think. After the debate between Fetterman and Oz, all most everyone reached the conclusion that Fetterman would have serious problems on the Senate Floor as a result of the stroke he suffered in May of this year. Yet, Biden and Harris will campaign for him to win. That fact tells me that constituents do not matter; the only thing that matters is keeping democrats in the majority.

Brooklyn, NY – Oct. 26…The New York State Conservative Party today called on New York governor Kathy Hochul to halt all non-essential hiring in her administration, citing the potential turnover of governors after Election Day and New York’s looming multi-billion budget deficit.
Conservative Party Chairman Gerard Kassar said that the Party is making this call after learning about recent hires by the Hochul Administration that included highly-political communications personnel.
“New York State is facing a massive budget deficit, and there’s a toss-up election occurring in less than two weeks,” Mr. Kassar said. “Hiring new non-essential employees now makes no sense for taxpayers, especially when there’s a good possibility that Congressman Lee Zeldin will be elected on November 8th. Besides, Mrs. Hochul is already running the most bloated administration in state history, and New York families are struggling to pay for that. They can’t afford a nickel more.”
Mr. Kassar warned that retiring administrations sometimes create protected patronage jobs for campaign volunteers and contributors who can stay on the state payroll for years.

Brooklyn, NY – “I had the pleasure of attending last night’s debate at Pace University, and I was struck by how Governor Hochul lacked basic answers about major challenges facing New York families. Mrs. Hochul had no answer about her $600 million taxpayer giveaway to a billionaire sports team owner; she had no answers about the crime epidemic caused by no-cash-bail — she even expressed surprise that crime is such an important issue to New Yorkers! — she had no answers when asked about her very Andrew-Cuomo-like pay-to-play practices, and she had no answers on the nursing home scandal that left thousands of New Yorkers dead.
“Lee Zeldin, in contrast, was informative, crisp, and passionate, offering clear solutions to New York’s woes. Mr. Zeldin offered specific policy steps to lower crime, reduce New York’s nation-leading tax burden, and to cut mandates to grow the economy.
“With 12 days to go before the election, it’s clear that challenger Lee Zeldin has the vision, backbone, and integrity to guide this state forward. Governor Hochul has nothing.”
Debate Night! The one and only debate will be on Spectrum New 1 tonight at 7:00 PM. For Spectrum nonsubscribers, download the Spectrum News app, available to Android and iPhone users, then tap “Live” on the menu bar at the bottom of the screen to view the debate. (I guess a small screen is better than no screen.)
Wow, talk about being out of touch with the real world; I guess one forgets what it is like when they have a security detail for protection. Kathy Hochul dismisses NYer concerns on violent crime wave as ‘sense of fear’. Hochul on Monday became the latest Democratic politician to downplay New Yorkers’ worries over subway and street crime amid a surge in violent attacks — chalking it up to a few “high-profile” crimes that have “created a sense of fear in people’s minds.”
Seriously, Mayor Adams…have you forgotten the platform you ran on? Adams tones down bail reform talk. “Adams’ pivot away from bail reform contrasts his previous focus on the issue.” Maybe his real interest in running for Mayor was the night life that he certainly takes time to enjoy.
Three New Yorkers Ordered Cocaine From the Same Delivery Service. All Died From Fentanyl. Unbelievable. A delivery service for cocaine that people just call to order…I must be very naïve; it just never occurred to me. Of course, it never occurred to me to even think that people would try it as the hazards of doing cocaine are well known. It breaks my heart how many people have succumbed to illegal, harmful drugs and it really is mindboggling how readily available they have become. And yet, every day the drug cartels bring more and more into our country at an open border that the Biden Administration refuses to close down.
NY hotel industry showers Gov. Kathy Hochul with campaign cash following bailout plan. “A key element of the recovery plan included a $100 million Tourism Worker Recovery Fund that provided a one-time payment of $2,750 to up to 36,000 hotel workers and other tourism industry workers whose unemployment benefits expired.” Reminder, those are your tax dollars giving the hotel workers a one-time payment of $2,750 and did other workers who ran out of unemployment benefits get a one-time payment or just hotel workers whose industry showered Gov. Hochul with campaign cash.

Brooklyn, NY – “The New York State Conservative Party commends today’s State Supreme Court decision that rightly preserves Election Day voting as an option for absentee ballot voters. Absentee ballot voters have had the right to amend their votes on Election Day for decades, and cynical attempts by Governor Hochul and the Democrat Party to strip them of those rights were wrong. This decision helps uphold the integrity of the electoral process, a major victory for New York voters and the rule of law.”
Our Fall Reception marking the Party’s 60th Anniversary was a great success. We returned to the Glen Island Harbour Club in New Rochelle; a beautiful venue nestled on the waterfront.
We were honored to have Newsmax’s White House Correspondent, John Gizzi, as our Ronald Reagan Journalism Award recipient and Larry Kudlow as our featured guest speaker.
The gathering, coming on the heels of excellent statewide and local polling, was highly energized. You could feel the momentum in the room. US Senate candidate Joe Pinion, Attorney General candidate Michael Henry and Comptroller candidate Paul Rodriquez each took a few moments to deliver remarks. Gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin was a part of every conversation from the podium to the reception floor. We are just 18 days away from saving New York. We must keep this momentum moving in the right direction.
It was also very clear that Chairman Emeritus Mike Long, the Chairman for almost half of the party’s history, was on many minds, as one would expect at the 60th Anniversary event. It was a fine evening remembering Mike and telling the story of the Conservative Party’s history and his enormous role in it.
It has been an honor for me to chair the Conservative Party these past few years. I am keenly aware of the history that brought us to where we are today. It is my sincere hope that in 2022 we will write a new page for a great political party and a fine group of people who make the party what it is today.
Big November Wins on the Horizon
News coming out of Washington indicates late summer/early fall numbers that showed momentum for Conservatives and Republicans had slowed, or even stopped, have returned to levels not seen in decades.
The US Senate is once again in play for the GOP with places like Pennsylvania and Arizona showing great promise. The House always expected to move into GOP control looks like it could once again see large Republican/Conservative gains.
In New York I expect to see 9, 10 or even 11 Republican/Conservative members of Congress. Currently, that number sits at 8.
The State Senate is poised to see many GOP/Conservative gains as well. And a shocker for many is the likelihood that the Assembly Republicans will see their greatest number of wins since 1994.
As much as the strong efforts of our party and its candidates are responsible for the pending gains, much credit should also, sadly, go to the Democratic Party. Their policies and candidates who gave us out of control inflation, unsafe streets, porous borders and a foreign policy that has made the United States unable to project the influence of a great power, have led to a New York State and America clearly on a decline. Look no further than the New York Post article in which a City Hall staffer admitted the Eric Adams Administration has no idea what to do with illegal immigrants flooding into NYC.
It is my continued ask that we do not get complacent, we must work hard and get out every single vote either through Absentee Ballot, Early Voting, or on Election Day November 8th. We’re almost there!
Early Voting October 29 through November 6
Early voting as you know is in person voting. Our voters should take advantage of this nine day opportunity to cast their vote early. It helps ensure our vote is coming out in large numbers. To win in New York State we need every person who thinks the way we do, or believes the state is heading in the wrong direction, to get out and vote!
If we lose, it will be because we did not vote. Conservatives and Republicans who don’t vote do one thing—elect Democrats. The Democratic Party has such a large voter advantage, we cannot afford to leave votes on the table. Of course, if for some reason you do not vote early, make sure you make a plan for you and your family to vote on November 8th.
Early Vote and Election Day Volunteers
If you are not already committed to local Conservative Party efforts, I ask you to contact the State Conservative Party at 718-921-2158 or by E-mail at nyscp@aol.com in order for us to make you part of our final GOTV and ballot security efforts.
Of course, you will be assigned to your local community. The point simply being that we need to get the vote out and can take no chances with the integrity of our elections.
Michael Goodwin’s column on Wednesday: Lee Zeldin has real shot to defeat Kathy Hochul in modern David vs. Goliath showdown. Mr. Goodwin notes in his column that “… something important has happened on the way to Hochul’s expected coronation. More and more, voters are waking up to the fact that one-party Democratic rule in Albany has been a complete disaster.”
Turn the heat up; now is not the time to believe we are on the verge of FIRING Hochul. We must continue to talk to our friends and family and make certain they get out and vote on November 8, 2022. Donate, if you can, volunteer to make phone calls, walk your neighborhood and do everything you can to Save Our State. You are the only one who can FIRE Hochul. Don’t wake up on November 9 and wish that you had done more!!
