It's likely as been pointed out before, the New York Conservative Party is no fly-by-night organization. It has a history.

In 1970 William F. Buckley's brother James Buckley was elected to the U.S. Senate as a Conservative Party candidate.

William F. Buckley was the Conservative Party's candidate for mayor of New York City in 1965 -- but insisted upon a recount when he won. The recount showed that he actually lost -- just kidding. Buckley said that the first he'd do if elected is insist upon a recount. :)
