Choose or Lose, Snooze or Booze. Part 1


OK, let's have a civilized discussion - just kidding.
Whom do you hate more and why?
Congress
John Hall vs Nan Hayworth
State Senate
Bill Larkin vs Harley Doles
State Assembly
Nancy Calhoun vs Roxanne Donnery
Next up: County Wide and State Wide

Voting against every incumbent

Well, Doles sleeps with KJ as does Hall and Donnery is under Sheldon Silver's thumb. So, what's the choice here?

Donnery is under Silver's thumb? Says who, Nancy's mailer? Oh, please.

Anyone who knows anything about Roxanne knows she's not a party-line hack. She has stood up to her caucus countless times in the county and I'm confident she will continue to do the same if elected.

And guess who KJ has endorsed in the Hall-Hayworth race this year. I'll give you a hint: it's not Hall.

hayworth is no price...but hall = tax & spend.

I would thank Roxanne for serving as Chairman of the County Legislature but what did she do for the people of Woodbury??

Anonymous said...

Donnery did more in 1 year as Chairwoman than Nancy did in 20 years in the Assembly.

KJ Pipeline? Inspector General?

Is there a single bill in 20 years that Nancy has introduced that has become law? None that I know of, would love to hear if there's one.

If you have to ask what Roxanne has done for the people of Woodbury, you're clueless.

don't forget the county actually passes budgets on time! what a concept!

still waiting on one bill in the last 20 years Nancy has introduced and passed.

Im not convinced when Donnery talks about "knocking out wasteful spending" while she is sending out hundreds and hundreds of the same expensive campaign flyers again and again. Im getting two or three at a time.

nancy = sends out taxpayer-funded, franked mailers from her assembly office during campaign season

roxanne = sends out mailers from her campaign. no taxpayer expenses.

and who is wastefully spending out tax dollars?

We'll all vote our conscience, and then everything will remain status quo. Got any other ideas?

Legalize pot?

Fornario's support of Roxanne (and Nancy's response to it) sold me.

I've been voting for Nancy for 18 years, but not this time.

Roxanne is one of the town's greatest allies. She's been representing her AND Amo's district for years, since he doesn't give a hoot about most of Woodbury. She's championed every pipeline/water issue for years on our behalf, asking KJ to respect the law, same as everyone else.

I understand she's behind us on the serious Water Authority risks facing our town and asking all the right questions.

I admit I was a bit torn. I'm sure she'd do a great job- but losing her would be a great loss for Woodbury, and much of Orange County.

Nevertheless, after all she's done for Woodbury I think she certainly deserves my vote to follow her dream of serving us at the state level. There are good ways she can bring awareness of Woodbury and Orange County's issues to the State.

With her party in the minority locally, it seems like building a new generation of bi-partisan people educated on the issues is most vital- unfortunately with Fornario and McLaughlin gone, their power team was already weakened. We need new people on both sides of the aisle, and folks willing to support campaigns with vote and hard work. I plan to, even though my vote may have to switch depending on where I end up in my work situation after this year.

No one in a union household or who has a loved one up in Valley View should support Roxanne Donnery, she does not question the need to lay off 39 care givers at the facility. Dont believe me go here...it is from Roxanne's appearance on the radio.

That's pathetic, Calhoun Camp. Wow, how convenient you cut off the audio there...I bet that's not taken out of context.

Look at the facts and what Roxanne has done to defend Valley View - actions speak louder than words. There's a reason why Valley View employees held a rally for Roxanne today.

Nope sorry to disappoint you but it is Roxanne's words straight from the radio. The only reason why they held a rally for her today is because they dont know any better. Now they do!!!
