So, you’re a political party committed to working class people and ensuring their needs are addressed by society. Where do you deploy your City based troops on election day?
Right in the NYC area, there are worthy candidates for Congress like Steve Harrison, David Mejias, and John Hall; State Senate hopefuls like Jimmy Dahroug, Brooke Ellison, Matt Titone, and Michael Kaplowitz; Assembly candidates like Janele Hyer-Spencer and Shelley Mayer. Surely all could use as much help as possible. Moreover, phone banks can provide essential help to progressive candidates in tough races all across the state and nation.
So what better place to put your most precious election day resources than in front of polling places in pinot sipping neighborhoods lacking any real contests, like Brooklyn Heights and Cobble Hill, in an effort to get voters already adding superfluous votes to Eliot Spitzer’s landslide to do so on a different line?
WHEN IT COMES TO SQUANDERING RESOURCES, AND WASTING ENERGY, THE WORKING FAMILIES PARTY IS THE POLITICAL EQUIVALENT OF A HUMMER!
Actually, this is a good thing; otherwise Bertha Lewis would be sending these troops to Yonkers to help in ACORN’s effort’s to help re-elect the Republican State Senator Democrats have the best chance of ousting.
VOTE FOR SPITZER ON THE DEMOCRATIC LINE!
