You can see my response above to propositions. This is common sense measure that makes things easier for people to vote. Nothing more.

Dear Ken,

Your love story almost reads like a cliffhanger! Slow and sweet. Such a nice contrast to whirlwind romances. Happy Anniversary!

It’s so interesting that whenever I read of fraudulent voting, they are mostly found to be Republican. Apparently stefanik and her maga brains cannot digest truth. I loved your Long Island girl story. As a Long Island girl who loves Washington and Warren counties, I myself have amazing love stories which I need to sit down and write. Thank you for yours…. 🫶🏻

Congrats on the anniversary!

Re Stefanik (ugh). Chris Churchill of the Albany Times Union has pointed out that a statewide vote was held (I have no recollection of same but I believe him) and the proposition to allow vote by mail was soundly defeated. He has also pointed out the those opposed (Republicans) put a whole bunch of effort into defeating the prop. Those in favor (Democrats) barely lifted a finger. So. The prop lost. His point was that Hochul ignored the “will of the people.” As a true blue Dem some part of me wants to respond “So what?” Vote by mail is good for democracy. Would I feel the same way if the prop were about, say, relaxing gun laws and allowing 16 year olds to buy AR 15s? Of course not. I would be livid.

Moral of the story: watch those sneaky props, folks!

I think if you asked most people they would not have a problem with voting by mail. You actually have to turn over your ballot and read a long legal paragraph before your vote for or against. Half the time you don’t understand what they are asking. You are right. Don’t trust the props.

House Republicans are in total meltdown and the government will soon be without funding. Glad to see Elise Stefanik has time to play politics by meddling in state affairs.

Not that she cares about any of it. It’s all about what’s good for her. And what’s good for her is continuing to audition for second spot on the Trump ticket. And good luck to her in that. Anyway we can get rid of the tourist from Albany, the better. 🤞

Also, if she really wants to lock up that Veep spot, she better get cracking on expunging Defendant Trump’s impeachments. That was supposed to be done before the August recess. Tick tock ⏰

What’s funny is that if Kathy Hochul was on the flip side and was opposing the voting, Elise Stefanik would be on the flip side, too. It’s politics, not principle.

Happy anniversary Gillian and Ken, the love of your life that almost didn't happen! Here's to enjoying many more anniversary celebrations!

Happy Anniversary. Great story of your courtship. Gillian was the nurse sent by Warren County to check in on me after I had knee replacement surgery in Boston. I enjoyed her visits.

It would be easy to say posTefanik is that dumb

or uneducated like her supporters... but let's face it

she is

a calculating liar

It is easy to say she is ignorant because if you look at her reading list.. when she publishes it

Never Non-Fiction.. hardly ever literature.. mostly fluff

Her stance on the issues never based on facts or knowledge

always a way to trigger her supporters and to cover he lack of policy
