I sometimes wonder how the VP passed the Bar, then I remember it took her two tries:  Kamala Harris Blames Turmoil In the Country On Abortion Bans.  Really, VP Harris? Inflation, out of control government spending, a president that insults half of our nation’s population, closing pipelines that supplied energy independence, illegal immigrants storming our borders as if they were storming the beaches of Normandy to end an unholy war. And you blame the turmoil on abortion bans? Question to you:  how many people’s lives have been improved by the company Apple? How many people have good jobs with Apple Inc.? The first Apple computer was created by Steve Wozniak , Steve Jobs, and Ronald Wayne in 1976;  later in his life Jobs would express gratitude that his mother didn’t abort him.  Despite what you think, VP Harris, nowhere in our US Constitution, did it provide for women to have an abortion and it certainly did not provide that tax dollars be used to pay for an abortion. Overturning Roe v Wade did not end abortion in the United States of America; rather, each state has been given the ability to allow their legislative body to decide if they support abortion. Albeit, personally I wish it had overturned abortion as a right, because I wonder if the aborted baby could have cured cancer, solve agriculture problems, found the best solutions for climate change, among hundreds of other positive ideals, was one of the 63,459,781 (latest numbers) innocent unborn aborted.

Interesting. Spence Brown writes in Townhall.com: Democrats Are Worried That They’re Leading in These Battleground States.

Politico writes Who will control the House? Look to New York. An interesting article that gives an almost positive view of the upcoming Congressional races. We passionately believe that our candidates have a much better chance of winning than Politico indicates as the article isn’t based on polling, nor the mood of the voters. We can and will win in November! Get involved, help your candidates win. Talk to your neighbors, friends and family. Your vote matters! Together, we will take back the House, Get rid of Senator Charles Schumer, fire Gov. Hochul and elect a legislative body that is more in tune with your values. If you don’t know where to begin to help, give us a call and we will get you involved.  Thank you!

Lee Zeldin trails Kathy Hochul by only 6 points in NY governor’s race: poll.  The latest poll continues the good news for Lee Zeldin! “Zeldin split the Hispanic vote with Hochul — usually a reliable Democratic constituency in New York — 41% to 41% with 18% of respondents undecided amid worries about crime and inflation.”  “He also leads among independents — voters not affiliated with a political party — 52% to Hochul’s 38%.”  And where they know the Governor best: “Zeldin leads Hochul on her upstate turf in the western NY/Buffalo region 54% to 38% and is up by 21 points in the central NY/Syracuse region.” NOW is the time to get involved.

Zeldin Closing in on Hochul

 As you have hopefully seen, a new independent poll shows Lee Zeldin within four points of Governor Hochul. That poll, along with a poll made public over the summer conducted by renowned pollster John McLaughlin, shows momentum is on our side with a little under 2 months remaining.

This news does not come as a surprise, you can feel it on the streets, you see it online and you sense at every Zeldin appearance that the tides are changing.

In the past month alone, Lee has raised almost four million dollars, including $1.5 million at an event headlined by President Trump last weekend.

With November 8^th quickly approaching, it is imperative we continue to spread the word about Lee Zeldin and his campaign. We have a real opportunity right in front of us to bring back public safety, and common sense spending while protecting our farmers and making sure congestion pricing never sees the light of day. There is too much on the line to not get involved.

New York Planning to Ban Family Farms

Very few New Yorkers understand the economics behind maintaining a family farm, yet most New Yorkers will tell you family owned and operated farms are businesses worth supporting.

The State Government, through an unelected board, has now proposed a change in overtime rules that will force many smaller farming operations to go out of business which will ultimately lead to the loss of jobs, the ending of family owned businesses and traditions, and finally forever changing the landscape of our rural counties.

The Governor and Democratic controlled Senate and Assembly won’t rest until all of Upstate New York looks like New York City.

The Conservative Party has joined with Senate and Assembly Republicans, Lee Zeldin, and the state GOP in urging the New York State Labor Commissioner to reject the Farm Labor Wage Board’s recommendation.

California Continues To Get It Wrong

 California, a state that is doing a job equal to only New York when it comes to out migration, is set to ban the purchase of new cars after 2035 that are not electric vehicles.

Ironically enough, within 48 hours of that announcement, the need to stop charging your electric vehicle was announced and a pause went into effect because of the state’s insufficient electric supply and their inability to sustain their grids current load. It would make you laugh if it was funny.

New York, apparently not one to learn from other state’s mistakes, is on the verge of doing the exact same thing when it comes to vehicles. The legislature and Governor are close to signing off on a ban of new non-electric vehicles in 2035, even while knowing that fully charged vehicles have been shown to perform poorly in New York’s colder environment.

With power plants being shut, electric prices are expected to rise almost 40% over the winter. Calls by the cyber mining industry for new sources of power are being ignored while alternative energy sources are more of a fantasy then a reality in terms of their ability to meet demand.

It does not take a genius to know that you do not follow someone over a cliff, yet Governor Hochul seems dead set on following the lead of California and Governor Newsom. She won’t stop and she’s taking you over that cliff with her.

Happy Labor Day

In the annals of modern history, few nations can boast about the productivity of its work force more than the United States.

From the mighty creator of the fortress of democracy, to the industrial revolution, the progression of electronics, to cyber technology—the “Made In America” label is what consumers value, and nothing compares to American ingenuity.

Labor Day is about the men and women who made, and continue today, to make American great. From America’s inception to the modern day, New York was built by those who worked hard in pursuit of the American dream for their families. The nearly 2 million members of New York’s Labor Unions continue on that journey today.

We must focus on advancement, not regression. The current President and his administration are more interested in hand outs, not hand ups. They have fostered in a new generation of entitlements and giveaways, not hard work and opportunity. We must return to what made us, as Ronald Reagan said, “the shining city upon a hill.” At our core, we are a people who indeed still value hard work. We must work to foster those same principles to those who are following in our footsteps.

These are the best pollsters, and they are telling you this is ours to lose! Congressional Ballot Tightens, Time for GOP to Play Offense. This is the last summer weekend, and it is time to roll up your sleeves and get to work. Our candidates have been campaigning for months; standing up for all of us who want to keep America and New York with the values – challenging work and not depending on government – that created the greatest nation and the empire state. We work for what we want and don’t depend on government handouts, because what government gives to you and can take from you.  Government does not sell a product – other than letting you believe it has a source of income other than your paycheck- and when government runs out of your money, you will be the loser, not the elected officials who will continue to live like the oligarchs they have become. We need to elect people who understand that our freedom is what made America and New York great, not our dependence on government. We certainly do not need our Governor telling us to move because we dare to disagree with most of her policies; we need a governor firing DA’s that refuse to abide by the oath of office they chose to take. Government officials are not elected so they can become enriched by the system they exploit or use their inside knowledge to enrich themselves, or their spouse.  As of today, November 8, 2022 is 70 days away; we can and will elect our statewide team – For Governor and Lt. Governor Lee Zeldin and Alison Esposito, Paul Rodriguez for Comptroller, Michael Henry for Attorney General and Joe Pinion for US Senate and of course, your local legislators.  (Check with your county chairman to find out who is running.) You earned what you have; don’t let the current government take it and give it to those who think they are entitled to your earnings. And it isn’t only your earnings they want; New York lawmakers seek better tracking of gun purchases.

Tomorrow, you plan to address us again, this time  by going prime time to spotlight fight to protect democracy following jabs at ‘MAGA Republicans’, Mr. President, your words mean absolutely nothing…they are words written by others in the hope that you can hold on to your position and keep the democrats in control.  Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice shame on me.

Tuesday’s Election Results

 Although the Conservative Party did not have a perfect Election Day, the overall results this past Tuesday were good. Our lone loss in New York 19 was a hotly contested race which saw Marc Molinaro fall just short. Hindered by high turnout due to multiple Democratic primaries, I fully expect a different result in the 19^th District this November that will result in a Molinaro victory.

However, all six of our endorsed candidates running in Republican primaries for Congress won. This is huge news and ushers in a unified Conservative and Republican ticket.

In the 22^nd Congressional District (Onondaga/Madison/Oneida) Conservative Party candidate Brandon Williams overwhelmed Steve Wells, who outspent Williams many times over, and had support out of Washington DC.

In the 17^th Congressional District, Mike Lawler won both the Conservative and Republican primaries that resulted from the twists and turns of the redistricting season.

In the 23^rd Congressional District, Conservative Party candidate for congress Nick Langworthy won a nationally watched primary and is now poised for victory this November.

They join our many other Congressional candidates from all corners of the state that are pushing back against the Biden, Pelosi, and Schumer progressive DC agenda. We would like to congratulate Nick LaLota, Nicole Malliotakis, Claudia Tenney and Andrew Garbarino on their strong victories.

To close out the federal elections, congratulations are in order to Congressman Elect Joe Sempolinski who won the Special Election in the 23^rd District and will be finishing the remainder of the retiring Tom Reed’s term.

Several Assembly candidates moved up to Senate nominations creating vacancies that will be filled for Assembly over the next few weeks. Additionally, a few State Senate primaries saw GOP/Conservative endorsements becoming aligned in two cases, and in one case a registered Conservative winning a Conservative Party primary in the Cayuga/Onondaga area creating a three-way race in November.

The players are now in place for November. The readers of this wrap-up are our first line in a battle that will affect our state and nation. If you are not already involved call our Conservative Party State Headquarters at 718-921-2158 so we can put you in touch with a campaign or party leader.

Hochul Wants You Gone

 “Just jump on a bus and head down to Florida where you belong, OK?” That directly from the mouth of unelected Governor Kathy Hochul to anyone who disagrees with her. These comments came as Hochul stumped in NY-19 for Democrat Pat Ryan who emphatically shook his head in agreement with Hochul.

Strong words from Governor Cuomo’s rubber stamp who is only in the position she is in because the former disgraced Governor couldn’t keep his hands to himself. New York has lost over 1.5 million residents the last decade and now the Governor is telling over 5 million more to get lost. Someone should tell her that New York and her 220 billion dollar budget can’t afford to lose more taxpaying residents to the likes of Florida, Texas, or North Carolina.

New York City residents pay the country’s highest combined state and local income tax rate and now, according to Hochul, your money isn’t even good enough for New York if you consider yourself in any way Conservative.

 Governor Hochul owes millions of New Yorkers a sincere apology. Read my full statement on her comments here.
