RIP Rose Gargano – Bay Ridge
This is so sad: Yesterday around 3:40 pm, Rose Gargano lost control of her vehicle on 3rd Avenue and 52nd Street in Sunset Park. (Source)
Her 2020 Range Rover crashed into a column. She was unconscious and brought to NYU (Lutheran) Hospital.
It was a bad accident – seen here, here and here Something must have happened on that road that caused her to swerve. The news said it was possibly a medical episode. (Source)
Rose was 70 years old and lived in Bay Ridge. This accident happened about two miles from her home. This is terrible and so sad.
Prayers for Rose Gargano’s sons – they have been through so much. (See here, here, and here).

Republicans Can Rock the Democratic Primary in NYC – New Rules Due to Redistricting
Hey Republicans,
Did you know that you can vote in the upcoming Senate Democrat primary from August 13th to August 21st?
Due to redistricting, you can go to the voting center, change your party THAT DAY and submit an affidavit ballot to vote against the champion of bail reform, Andrew Gounardes. (Information)
You can change your party back the next day.
Now I know for some Republicans, they wouldn’t want to be a Democrat – even for a short time. This message is not for you, Ted.
But I am thinking there are a lot of home owners who would love to vote against Gounardes. For anyone who is tired of Andrew’s broken promises and wants to do something about it….come and rock the vote in the Democratic primary.
Andrew Gounardes voted to gerrymander this community to help him and his friend, Max Rose win their seats. Andrew could have done the right thing and made a fair district, but he joined his friends in Albany and didn’t care about residents in this district.
David Yassky is a moderate Democrat. His responses on social media show he’s rationale and a common sense Democrat. That’s exactly what we need.
David Yassky isn’t going to play on social media and he isn’t afraid to tell Brannan he’s wrong (See here)
On television, one candidate in the upcoming primary was asked how he felt about Republicans voting in the Democratic primary and he was so upset. LOL! I’m a Democrat and I invite you to come Rock the Vote, Bay Ridge!
