After weeks of campaigning and candidates wooing voters across NYS the final hours of nail biting came to an abrupt end with the overwhelming victory of Carl Paladino candidate for Governor.
Greg Edwards’ equally important win, on the Lt. Gov line ensures that Western NY has a complete ticket to ride into Albany on a Train of Change bound east.
Also with Dan Donovan as our Attorney General, Harry Wilson as our State Comptroller, Tom Reed as our member of Congress , Catharine Young, NYS Senator and Joe Giglio as our Assemblyman our Albany team will be complete and the hemorrhaging of New York State will stop. We will recover, we will be stronger and New York State will thrive again.
Primary days are difficult for any party. But in this particular year, when the Republican Party and the nation as a whole have so much to gain from our victories in November, we need to constantly remember we have more similarities within our whole than we do differences. We cannot achieve these victories split and tattered, bloody and weakened by inner fighting and personal posturing.
We are excited and energized by each other. Get the signs, go to events, sign on to volunteer and let us know what you need to accomplish the work for our candidates throughout Cattaraugus County and New York State.
Make sure you get your reservations in for the Fall Dinner at the Old Library Restaurant on Friday September 26th at 6 PM where you will see our NYS Republican Committee Chairman Edward Cox along with other guests who will address the issues of the historical year in NYS Republican politics.
I look forward to seeing your there. Onward!
