““To add insult to injury, the vendor hired to collect qualifying signatures to secure ballot access for the Republican Party nomination in the June 2020 Primary, violated New York State election laws. The vendor was hired in good faith, yet ultimately prevented Murray from qualifying to be on the Republican Primary ballot for the June 2020 Primary,” the campaign said in a statement.”

Perhaps she trusted the wrong people, the NY Republican Party.

NY politicians are ALL IN against America.

"NY politicians are ALL IN against America."

When you are a politician of most foreign countries, you must be "all in against America" to get elected...

Probably just as well.

I don’t know if New York has an open primary or not. If not better to register Dem and primary crazy woman out.

No republican is going to win that district.

If there’s any chance of defeating her, it will probably have to be Michelle Caruso-Cabrera in the primary.

AOC will get reelected in a landslide. Her district is mostly new immigrants who think Republicans are anti immigrant.

“John Cummings, a retired New York Police Department officer, remains in the GOP race.”

AOC district is mostly new immigrants with a distrust of police and who suck of the gov’t teat in housing and social services. Guy does not stand a chance.

I used to listen to Michelle Cabrera on CNBC. She didn’t seem like a flaming Bolshevik. May be the best we can hope for as no R will win there.

Run as a Republican in her district and see how far you get. What I said is factually true. New immigrants nearly always tend to vote democrat. I read the stats of her district. 70-75% are on some form of gov’t assistance whether it is food stamps or housing or Medicaid.

A conservative republican does not stand a chance in that district.

You know you could have added more content and not making people to click on the link. Like:

Her campaign said she faced “hurdles” including “a corrupt political establishment working to silence her.”

“To add insult to injury, the vendor hired to collect qualifying signatures to secure ballot access for the Republican Party nomination in the June 2020 Primary, violated New York State election laws. The vendor was hired in good faith, yet ultimately prevented Murray from qualifying to be on the Republican Primary ballot for the June 2020 Primary,” the campaign said in a statement.

The campaign said it is taking the case to court to ensure “no other candidate is likewise taken advantage of.”

The federal lawsuit alleges, among other mistakes, that the vendor used a registered Democrat to be the “subscribing witness” for Murray’s petition, which violates state law that requires the subscribing witness be a Republican in order to get on the GOP primary ballot, the New York Daily News reported.
