Pressure has been building over the past few months as the Tax Revolt has gone into full swing here in Erie County New York.
We are spreading out and are now in Niagara County, and Western New York. Our focus is to come down on Albany like a ton of bricks.
Incumbents are starting to fall like dominoes!
New York PING!
Erie County and Niagara County ping!
Finest Ping!
Good, go back there.
Thank You for the update. Good luck to you, Mayor.
The pressure got to him. Swanick saw the writing on the wall. He doesn't have the *******s to cut stuff and bargain with the unions. Now I know why...he's a union member!
Mayor - my money is on you for the win!
Thank you Ma'am..
Thank you!
I only hope the republicans don't put someone else up..
Even so, I stand a good chance of winning. Ianello is as inside as they come, just another political hack.
This district is evenly split between Dems and Repubs but there is a big Conservative and Independent base.
There is no slowing me down Bob..
That explains why Swanick was so adept at railroading things through the Legislature for so many years...
Good Luck!
This is big for the county. Why? Because this could spell the beginning of the end of the stranglehold of corruption that has taken over this county. We are in a fiscal meltdown because of corruption - mismanagement, patronage, and unfunded mandates have converged to result in a bankrupt county that has had to go to an austerity budget - spending only on those items required by state law or county charter.
Now, maybe that doesn't mean much to you - but for those of us here, this is big. It means this county still has a chance.
Could very well be..
This story has been around for a couple months, I am still waiting to hear it from his mouth.
I will be at the Legislature meeting tomorrow and everyone till election day.
Hi, the post was removed, newbie, looks like a troll.
I looked at some of the posts in the forums and it won't be long before he/she is gone.
Good luck!
