Have some pity for the people in the Town of Hempstead, who are the hardest hit. We are one of the last bastions of Republicans on Long Island. You would almost think it was a conspiracy.

Give me a break! Hempstead is north of the Southern State, not anywhere near the hardest-hit coastal communities, nor did it have entire neighborhoods burn to the ground.

According to LIPA, 1,087 customers are still without power in Hempstead.

In the Rockaways it's over 31,000 households and customers in these areas have been completely taken off the outage map because they are unable to receive power safely.

I said THE TOWN OF HEMPSTEAD not HEMPSTEAD TOWN. Two different things.

I live in THE TOWN OF HEMPSTEAD, but not in HEMPSTEAD TOWN.
I live SOUTH of the Southern State.

Oceanside, one of the hardest hit towns is in THE TOWN OF HEMPSTEAD.

I hope you enjoyed the civics lesson.
