(ELMIRA, NY) - Chemung County Committee Republican Chairman Michael Krusen endorsed Buffalo businessman Carl Paladino for Governor of New York. Chairman Krusen joins a growing trend of seven Republican County chairmen endorsing Carl Paladino as the candidate who best represents the interests and values of their constituents.
"I enthusiastically endorse Carl Paladino for Governor of the State of New York," said Michael Krusen Chemung County Republican Chairman. "As a businessman and attorney, Carl knows how to make New York's government work for the people again. Carl has the passion, knowledge and ability to make the tough decisions that so desperately need to be made in New York."
"Chemung County Republicans need to vote for Carl Paladino on September 14th," said Krusen.
"I am thankful to receive the endorsement of the Chemung County Republican Chairman Michael Krusen," said Paladino. "This election is about changing the way Albany works and I will lower taxes, cut spending and reform the status quo. As Governor I will do what it takes to bring New York back as the Empire State," Paladino said.
Krusen joins a growing list of Republican County Committee Chairs endorsing Carl Paladino, including Richard Siebert of Genesee County, Ed Morgan of Orleans County, Cherl Heary of Cayuga County, Michael Norris of Niagara County and Nick Langworthy of Erie County. More County GOP leaders are contacting the Paladino campaign every day and announcements are imminent of other endorsements.
Carl Paladino, a successful Western New York real estate developer and attorney, declared his candidacy for Governor of New York in April. He and Tom Ognibene, a candidate for Lieutenant Governor, have petitioned their way into the Republican Primary and canvassed to create a Tea Party-inspired line: the Taxpayers Party.

This makes the 7th county BUCKING THE NEW YORK GOP and switching away from their hand-picked Loser, Lazio
If Carl Paladino wins the GOP primary in New York State, then there will actually be some excitement in that race
If Lazio wins then Cuomo will sleep walk to a victory
Lazio has only $400,000 to spend- Cuomo has $20million.
If Paladino wins the primary- he brings $10million of his own money to the table, AND SOME EXCITEMENT!!!
This could generate a huge republican turnout, and get rid of both Chucky Schumer AND Hillary Place-holder SENATE SEATS!!!
Thats a pickup of two from NY alone, and could turn NY Republican in 2012
NEW YORK STATE PRIMARY SEPT 14 *VOTE *VOTE* *VOTE*
Lets not get ahead of ourselves. I would much better like to see Paladino run the Lazio the Loser. But he has very little chance of winning. The Ground Zero Mosque definitely gave a boost to his campaign, but it probably won’t be enough to get him much above 40 percent in the general.
Lazio is no where in the polls
If it is Paladino vs Cuomo Paladino comes out HUGE in all the internal polling
This is the year Republicans could take over NY - ust like everywhere else
No one is excited about cuomo, but they are even less excited about Lazio
A palin endoresment of Paladino would send a shock through new york
New York Governor RACE PING!!!
Why do you think that? Democraps are NOT going to be motivated to vote for Cuomo
Paladino said that Obummer has no religion; “He worships himself.” -on TV interview
Heee hee... that’s funny :
