Feeling Blessed

I know my faith has gone stronger over the last few years, but I never knew it would be strong enough to hold me up until I realized I didn’t fall.

While the world is in an uproar over the new president, we are feeling blessed over unrelated news.

Nicole Malliotakis – 10,000 People Would Rather Not Vote than Vote for Her

Nicole Malliotakis Assemblywoman

While Nicole Malliotakis pats herself on the back and continues to get paid for doing very little, in the back of her head she has to wonder how over 10,000 people would rather vote for NO ONE than her.

 

DO SOMETHING MALLIOTAKIS – ANYTHING…..Really anything.

 

Like Hillary Clinton, people have no faith in Nicole Malliotakis. When I heard from many friends that they didn’t vote for anyone for Assemblywoman, I knew the numbers had to be high.

 

Everyone has seen years of the nonsense press releases that Nicole loads our newspapers with.

 

Three hundred and seventy-nine people wrote in candidates. I hope we get to see a list of the write ins.

Like Hillary, People Didn’t Want to Vote for Marty Golden

Over 25,000 people went to vote, but they didn’t want to vote for Marty Golden. If he was an effective leader, he should have won with over 85% of the vote.

 

Like Hillary Clinton, people didn’t want to vote for Golden – 22,000+ people chose to leave the line blank rather than vote for him. The non-votes and the write-ins are votes against him. People made their voice heard!  Even though Marty doesn’t hear them, Golden’s wife isn’t blind to these results. Look at the number of write-ins – 985 people had creative write ins.

 

marty-golden-results

 

 

Although Marty Golden’s Senator activities have been quiet and mild these past two years, no one has forgotten that he initiated a huge bill to give tax break to Manhattan developers and he votes with the Upstate Senators. Golden isn’t doing much for Bay Ridge and the people have made their voice heard.

Why Does Marty Golden Run Unopposed?

Everyone wants to be a district leader, but no one actually does the job of Democratic District Leader in Brooklyn South.

 

Today Marty Golden runs unopposed. 

 

Sigh.

 

Bay Ridge has a enough Democrats and even a lot of  Republicans who are tired of the Golden Era of Politics, but we have no candidate on the ballot.  It’s time for the district leaders in Bay Ridge and related areas to step aside – you don’t have the needed clout to find a candidate or the energy to seek out a candidate.

 

How about reaching out to the community and asking if anyone would be interested in running?  There are plenty of people looking for jobs and I am sure one wouldn’t mind going to Albany.  Post the information on Facebook and I am sure the community will have a lot of ideas to share about who would like to represent this community.
