- Gail Evans Zuchowski Does any one ever use the "Write-in" option? It's rather useless unless a MULTITUDE of like-minded people write in the same name. They'd probably figure out a way to void that action, like not any signatures on a petition, blah, blah... Again, why is the write-in an option?

  I volunteered as a poll worker years ago and was horrified how easy it would be to rig an election (Gore won)... I swore I would never vote again but then Obama and Hillary ran. I had to vote for one of them. It was a difficult choice betw...een two brilliant people making history.
  I actually felt sorry for republicans left with McCain and Palin as their choice. They were so sad to pull that lever.
  Oh well. Cuomo will be better than lazio too. Poor republicans.
  They just can't get a break and get some honest, charismatic leadership again like Bush...See More

- Frank E. Tamalenus ‎@ Roger.... State and Local Government Employees got to keep their jobs. ( They called that "Saving Jobs"... Too bad they are jobs that only consume wealth and NOT produce it.) That's where the bulk of Stimulus money went. Just what we needed. Right? It was borrowed money to boot.

  I HAVE A FEW IDEAS TO RUN IT PAST YOU: 1. INCREASE IN CHILD SUPPORT PERCENTAGE,2. STRICTER PENALTIES FOR SECOND OFFENSE IN FAILURE TO PAY CHILD SUPPORT(WHEN DEAD BEAT FATHER'S QUIT/FIRED FROM JOB AND GO TO LOWER PAYING JOB WITHIN 3-5 MTHS O...F COURT DATE. THE DEAD BEAT FATHERS SHOULD GET A INCREASE OF $20.00 TO $50.00 FOR EVERY TIME THEY TRY TO HAVE CURRENT SUPPORT LOWERED.)3. PUT DEAD LOCK ON ALL LAND AND SCHOOL TAXES, NO MATTER IF THE PROPERTIES IS UNDEVELOPED LAND OR HAS HOUSES ON IT. 4. IF HOME OWNERS HAVE NO KIDS LIVING AT HOME OR GO TO SCHOOL THEY SHOULDN'T PAY SCHOOL TAXES PERIOD, 5.NY STATE SHOULD ALSO PUT DEAD LOCK ON ANY INCREASED TAXES FOR LIQUEUR,CIG.'S,GAS, FOOD AND CLOTHES.
  
  many OF UPSTATE RESIDENCE ARE THINKING OF LEAVING NY STATE BECAUSE IT IS HARDER TO AFFORD TO RAISE THE FAMILIES HERE. BUT, MANY ARE LEAVING RIGHT NOW FOR BETTER JOB FORCE,LOWER TAXES,AND BETTER WAY TO RAISE THEIR FAMILIES.See More
