Happy Veterans Day

On behalf of the New York State Conservative Party, I am humbled and honored to have this platform to wish every member who has served in the United States Armed forces a very happy Veterans Day. November 11 is significant as it gives universal recognition to the celebrated ending of World War I fighting at 11 a.m., November 11, 1918 (the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month) and was originally called “Armistice Day.” The first celebration using the term Veterans Day occurred in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1947. Raymond Weeks, a World War II veteran, organized “National Veterans Day” holding a parade and other festivities, to honor all veterans on November 11. It was U.S. Representative Edward Rees of Kansas who proposed the bill to change Armistice Day to Veterans Day. The bill passed Congress in 1954 and President Eisenhower signed it.

It is you, our veterans, who have kept this country the envy of the world. Our nation is promised a tomorrow thanks to your sacrifices. I offer my sincerest gratitude for your service, not just today, but every day. May God continue to be with you, your family, and our country.

Thank You Lee Zeldin and our Statewide Team

Although Tuesday did not end the way we had all wished, we have much to be excited about for the future. I’d like to thank Congressman Lee Zeldin for carrying the torch in New York. Lee was the right man at the right time to lead the 2022 ticket. The excitement he generated was crucial in our down ballot successes. New York is sending eleven Conservative Party endorsed candidates, four of which whose margin of victory was due to the Conservative Party line, to Washington D.C. in January.

As for the Conservative Party, we have surpassed the 305,000 vote mark with more to be counted. This is well beyond our highest statewide vote since 1998.

In the New York State Senate, with the help of the Conservative Party, the veto proof majority was broken.

In the NYS Assembly, Republicans, with Conservative Party endorsements, increased by a minimal of six seats. In King County, the Conservative Party played a key role in flipping three seats. Nothing like this has ever happened before.

I want to personally thank Lee Zeldin and Alison Esposito for running for Governor and Lt. Governor. We will always remember how dedicated Lee and Alison were to Saving Our State and look forward to supporting them in whatever they choose to do next.

We also thank Joe Pinion, Michael Henry, and Paul Rodriquez for their arduous work and outstanding efforts they put forth this election cycle.

How Zeldin’s Loss Is Making New York’s Republican Party Ambitious Again

Happy 246^th Birthday to the United States Marine Corps!

Thank you for always protecting the United States of America

Guy Benson wrote in Townhall.com National Republicans Should Be Thanking Lee Zeldin.  Just part of what Benson said, “But for a statewide campaign to actually be competitive in a place as blue as New York, the awfulness of the Democrat isn’t enough.  The Republican also has to run a smart, aggressive, spirited campaign.  Lee Zeldin did that.  Republicans across the state, and the country, should be grateful.”  We couldn’t agree more!

Lee Zeldin on why he has ‘zero regret’ after losing to Gov. Kathy Hochul.  We have no regrets either, Lee Zeldin and his team ran an excellent campaign.  He was straight forward and honest, reached out to all who would listen to his message, ran for all the right reasons and understood that New Yorkers love New York and want it to be safe, have better economic growth, real help for the homeless and mentally ill, and return to an Empire State that rejects pay-to-play, and removes elected officials who have their own agenda and not do the job they were elected to do.  Thank you, Lee Zeldin, Alison Esposito and your entire team, for making us proud to work with you on your campaign.  We stand ready to join you again!

The NY Post writes: Thank you, Lee Zeldin, for starting to build a viable NY Republican future.

Madison County write-in campaign for judge easily overwhelms controversial candidate.  Kudos to Madison County Chairman, Christopher J. Kendall, who helped to  spearhead a campaign when a sitting district attorney and judicial candidate had a terrible lapse of judgement.  Thank you, Chris, for having the integrity to fight for conservative values.

Congratulations to all who carried the conservative torch and will be going to Congress and the state legislature to be the voice of the constituents who placed their faith in you.

And a very special thank you to all who cast their vote on Row C!

Thanks to you, we will remain on Row C.

Lee Zeldin can win NY’s governor race — you just need to turn up and vote.  He needs one thing and one thing only: You

Krazy Kat denies crime’s a problem — but Hillary Clinton lets the truth slip “It was one of those late-campaign events where the hype is thick, where the rhetoric is hyperbolic and where the facts don’t really matter. How very odd, then, that Hillary let the truth peek through.”

Zeldin doesn’t let hecklers get in way of anti-crime remarks at site of NYC rape. During a news conference near the scene of the Thursday morning rape of a tourist jogging in Hudson River Park, Zeldin said, “It is important that we are doing everything in our power to make our streets and our subway safe.”

Hochul and Albany would rather keep jails empty than have innocent victims live. “Hochul tries to blame “the system,” whatever that means. But in reality, she is “the system.” She is the governor of New York state and the leader of the New York state Democratic Party, which single-handedly passed these laws. She was the lieutenant governor when these laws were passed and signed.”

Hochul appeals for women’s votes on the heels of a horrific Midtown rape.  ““From the very beginning, we have asked for changes to the bail-reform law,” NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell told The Post this week. Instead, Hochul fought the Legislature to fund subsidies for the Buffalo Bills’ billionaire owner, and her own slush funds.”

Where Lee Zeldin is targeting in NYC to pull off stunning upset against Kathy Hochul in gov race.

Tiny turnout for Hochul NYC campaign event in stark contrast to Zeldin throng

MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle confronts Gov. Hochul on NY crime: ‘We don’t feel safe’. “Crime in New York City has spiked across the board since Hochul became governor last year, and critics say the surge is fueled by repeat offenders sprung time and again because of the state’s 2019 bail reform law.”  I’m pretty certain, Gov.Hochul  never expected this from Stephanie Ruhle

Hochul’s running on fumes in her desperate final hours.  “Her campaign is about nothing. If Zeldin wins, he has a clear mandate on crime and the economy. If Hochul wins, we guess that’s a license to . . . keep up the pay-to-play?”

Rest assured there will be more neighborhoods like this one if Gov. Hochul wins:  Gov. Hochul’s funding, progressive drug policies transform East Harlem into Zombieland

Michael Goodwin writes: New York Red Wave is coming ashore.  “To this day, she continues to flirt with the ridiculous idea that crime isn’t as bad as Zeldin says, which is tantamount to telling people that what they see isn’t true and their fears are groundless…Her mishandling of Public Enemy No. 1 raises two other features of her performance. She doesn’t appear to have a great passion for the job, nor does she display evidence of any special competence.”

Remember:  Early to bed; early to rise, makes men and women, healthy, wealthy and wise enough to vote on the Conservative Line (Row C)! 

You’ve heard it before, “this is the most important election of our lifetime.” That phrase sounds good, it creates the urgency—but for perhaps the first time, there is no truer statement.

New York is at a crossroads, and it is time to try something new, something different, because if we remain on the current trajectory, I am sorry to say that I believe dire consequences will follow. On November 8^th, I humbly ask you to vote based on your current situation, your circumstances, and your experiences around the City and State of New York.

As many of you know, I am a lifelong Brooklyn resident. I have quite literally seen the worst of times and the best of times. I know the difference, I’ve lived it, and I am living it again.

Every day the front pages of our newspapers, TV and radio news and certainly the internet is filled with stories of violence and crimes against New Yorker’s. Even cop killers, in fact 37 cop killers, have been released by the Cuomo/Hochul parole board.

IMAGINE, 37 COP KILLERS HAVE BEEN RELEASED INTO OUR STREETS.

Non-violent crimes, such as grand larceny auto are at record levels. I know of no one who is comfortable taking the subway in NYC these days.

Fatal shootings are up across New York State:  shootings are up 26% in Rochester and incredibly 80% in Binghamton, and 100% in Troy. Yes, 100%. Buffalo has some of its worst violence ever.

IMAGINE, CRIME HAS GONE UP 29% IN NYC.

If you won’t take it from me, take it from Allie Forest, a Rochester resident and mother who recently said her final goodbyes to her 16-year-old daughter before burying her, something no parent should ever have to experience. “Bail reform is terrible, and it has made the criminals too confident, they are laughing at the police.” Forest said. “If politicians like Governor Hochul lived on the dangerous streets we do, we wouldn’t have bail reform.”

We have a slate of candidates for offices from Governor to the New York Legislature that can turn this state around. The new crop of conservative congressional members certain to emerge in New York State will be decisive in removing Nancy Pelosi, AOC, Jerry Nadler and the entire bunch of liberals from power in Congress.

Lee Zeldin for Governor, Alison Esposito for Lt. Governor, Joe Pinion for U.S. Senate, Michael Henry for Attorney General and Paul Rodriguez for Comptroller are the ticket to change in New York State.

Early voting has buoyed my confidence in victory on Tuesday. Be sure to cast your vote on the Conservative Party Line; your vote on Row C, will make the final difference.

You ignored the obvious and blamed others, and now the voters will have their say!

Then there are businesses who donate for all the right reasons! It’s no secret why crime-besieged Latino grocers are flocking to Lee Zeldin for gov. Shoplifting in the city is up a whopping 65% this year, through July 31, on top of a 36% spike last year over 2020. Thanks to the bail laws Hochul claims are working wonderfully, serial criminals — like Harold Gooding, who’s been arrested and released more than 100 times — are free to prey on the innocent with virtual impunity.

Gov. Hochul, you’re the real ‘data denier’ on surging crime “Master manipulators,” she said Sunday, “have this conspiracy going” to “convince people in Democratic states that they’re not as safe.” But “the safer places are the Democratic states.”

Fed up with a surge in shoplifting, a coalition of mostly Latino supermarket owners across the New York City area are raising $70,000 to back Republican gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin in the last days before the election, The Post has learned.  Latino supermarket owners back Lee Zeldin with $70K fundraiser as crime surges

Why NYC Democrats are supporting Republican Lee Zeldin for governor.  “We no longer identify with the Democrats. They are out of touch with the middle class and the people in the community. They all have agendas, thinking that it’s all about just being like, liberal. They think everybody’s liberal like that, but we aren’t. Our values align much more now with what conservatives want.”

Lee Zeldin will provide the leadership New York is missing from Kathy Hochul.

The Democrats may be splintered, but certainly not ready to throw in the towel as evidenced by this:  Lee Zeldin surge in New York governor race prompts Democrats to create Hochul super PAC.  The Democratic Party has already given Hochul $69,700 and the State Democratic committee another $219,800.  At this time, it is unknown how much the DGA (Democratic Governors Association) will contribute to the super PAC.  What we do know, is we must keep up the momentum!
