I have decided to finish the job we have started here in Erie County.
For more than two years, I have had the unique and humbling experience of serving as Erie County Executive. And in that short time, we have made tremendous strides in reforming Erie County and running government like a business. I am proud to say that the results speak for themselves – multi-million dollar surpluses, streamlining of government and establishing a strong foundation for renewing Erie County’s economy.

TOWNSEND AND TASK FORCE: CUT COSTS RESPONSIBLY FOR STATE'S JAILS
Assemblyman David Townsend (R,WF-Sylvan Beach) visited Vernon-Verona-Sherrill High School Wednesday evening to take part in a presentation about cost-containment at New York State's correctional facilities. Assemblyman Townsend listened to testimony and gathered information for the task force's official report, to be issued in Albany in the near future. Safety and staffing for prison employees were discussed as well by representatives from NYSCOPBA. A spokesman for the group noted that while corrections staff working directly with New York’s prison population has declined by 2,500 over the last decade the number of administrative staff personnel has doubled, resulting in high operating costs for state taxpayers.

Lackawanna Council candidate says: Those Who Stand For Nothing, Fall For Anything
"Whenever an election is coming up, all the politicians come out and give you the same
song and dance about the same issues, all the way up until they get elected. Then you don't hear anymore from them until they are up for election again" says Third Ward Council Candidate Dennis Mulqueen. "I believe people are tired of this. There is a great need in our city government right now for honesty. All you have to do is research what a candidate puts in the paper and make sure what they say is true and actually call them out when it isn't."

Ricchiazzi Endorses Kearns
Don't let this year become just another footnote in the history of Buffalo's long decline. Although I will not be on the ballot for Mayor this year, a vote for change is still possible. But it's only possible this Tuesday in the Democratic Party primary. I'd like to take a few minutes of your time to explain why I believe that Councilman Mickey Kearns is our best hope at this juncture of our City's history, and why I'll be supporting him during the remainder of this election cycle.
