    FOR SOME REASON, THE SPEAK UP SYSTEM WILL NOT PERMIT ME TO UPLOAD SIDE TWO OF THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY'S MAILER ON THIS THREAD.
    It is unfortunate that you are unable to post the second side of the mailer. The public needs to repeatedly hear and see who the ‘real’ endorsed Conservative Party candidates are.

    Highway Superintendent Dan Amatura requested Conservative Party endorsement, received an interview, was ‘vetted’ by the party committee and did not get the endorsement.

    Wozniak, a recent registered conservative did not seek Conservative Party interview / endorsement. Rudz is a registered Republican.

    Amatura and Wozniak are primarying the ‘real’ endorsed Conservative Party candidates:

    John Pilato – Highway Superintendent
    Adam Dickman – Council (incumbent)
    Mark Burkard - Council
    Anthony Cervi – Justice (incumbent)


    As stated earlier, the ‘Conservative Leaders for a Better Lancaster’ mailer was deceptive – but not without merit as it did what political BS mailers do, obfuscate and deceive some voters.

    As the one Conservative Party’ mailer did not come from the Conservative Party, ‘what’s your point’ I asked. This mailer did not market the candidates as ‘endorsed’ Republican candidates, but as registered Republicans primarying endorsed Republican Party candidates, some of whom are not registered Republicans.

    It was A post identified as ‘Republican mailer’ because it identified Republican candidates primarying the endorsed Republican Party candidates. An innocuous mailer in comparison to the deceitful deal-making politics taking place in Lancaster this year.

    This year’s primary begs the question:

    Which candidate is the real Democrat?
    Which candidate is the real Republican?
    Which candidate is the real Conservative?

    Can any candidate endorsed by all parties serve in the best interests of all parties or the community? Or is that candidate’s best interest their own agenda?

    Such purity, how noble!

    Is this the "New Normal" political process in Lancaster?

    What has happened to the traditional political process here; an embrace of the trending national Cancel Culture?

    Good grief, what is the purpose of a political party primary if not to assess the candidates who hold the more genuine party philosophy and credentials?

    IMHO, this entire bunch not only wants to realize electoral success, but they seek to discredit and cancel all with opposing viewpoints.

    Perhaps if these 2021 political circumstances are the prototype for future elections, and this type of mentality keeps up, it may be wise for all of the rest of us to just send in our tax checks and await decrees from the powerholders?

    Don't write. Don't talk. Don't think, just submit, eh?

    No comments, no challenge, and no choices are not the earmarks of our traditional political system, or so I understand.

    What's next, a demand that the Public Participation forums at Town Council and Village Board meetings become a public Amen Corner?

    A politically purified Lancaster today, and maybe a purified America tomorrow?

    If the former is the case, I believe that to be untrue. If I am wrong, someone straighten me out.

    If the latter is the case, was not the Erie County Democrat Committee required to approve the Rudz, Wozniak and Amatura endorsements?

    Cleverly written, or deceptively written?

    Party bosses who do not live in Lancaster is a week attempt to distract from the real faux message that these candidates are the 'real' conservative leaders, despite not being the 'real' endorsed Conservative Party candidates. Excepting Amatura, Wozniak and Rudz did not apply for Conservative Party endorsement. Wozniak could have because he is a registered conservative. Rudz is not and unable to seek Conservative Party endorsement or primary the endorsed Conservative Party candidates – candidates endorsed by a Conservative Party that officially announced its candidates long before the colluded Republican and Democratic Parties announced theirs.

    There is another conservative who had received enough petitions to make him eligible to be on the ballot – an interloper who had petitions garnered by Republican and Democratic Party committee members and other vested operatives. Why do we not hear about or from Mr. White? Is he not a conservative leader that deserves mention?

    Where are these mailers coming from and who is fronting their costs?

    Amatura’s being featured on this ‘team’ mailer is enigmatic, but the claims are credible. It most likely features Amatura to present qualifications to offset his not getting the Conservative Party endorsement, positioning himself to get endorsements from the liberal Democratic Party, the conservative Republican Party, the far-left Workers Party, and registering as a conservative at the eleventh hour to make him eligible to primary the endorsed Conservative Party candidate, John Pilato.

    With fusion voting in Lancaster, the Conservative Party wields influence in the election outcome. Having not received the Conservative Party endorsement there appears the need to paint Amatura, Rudz, and Wozniak as ‘conservative leaders’ because they were endorsed by a Republican Party that failed to endorse a single endorsed Conservative Party candidate. In fact, a Republican Party that failed to endorse two of its own incumbents seeking re-election.

    On the flip side, the endorsed Conservative Party candidates, all registered Republicans are primarying the endorsed Republican Party candidates. The conservative candidates well understand they can't win an election without major party endorsement. They were denied Republican Party endorsement thanks to a party organizational and chair change, resulting animosity and vindictiveness toward the former chair and committee. membership, resulting in deal-making collusion with the Democratic Party.

    Less than a month to election time. The stuff is about to hit the fan!

    This Is The Working Families People's Charter:

    The People’s Charter is our roadmap out of our current state of crisis, and to an America that works for the many, not the privileged and powerful few. Americans are coming together to care for each other like never before — but our government isn’t caring for us. It doesn’t even seem to care about us.

    Three events have rocked our country: a global pandemic, an economic collapse, and a reckoning with the history of systemic racism against Black people. Across the country, communities have been caring for one another through these crises. Grocery clerks and farmworkers keeping food on our shelves. Nurses saving lives while risking their own. Neighbors delivering supplies to those most vulnerable and sharing what they have with people who need it. And millions of people have taken to the streets in grief and anger to demand an end to police killings and all racial injustice.

    Our politicians, again, rushed to bail out corporations and billionaires. But they’re playing games with unemployment insurance, leaving families to skip meals, go without medication, or fall behind on rent or mortgage payments. They seem to care for billionaires a lot more than they care for working people.

    It doesn’t have to be this way. We can heal the wounds from the pandemic, the economic depression, and a history of racism. And we can do more. Working people can come together to make a nation that cares for all of us.

    Repair historic harms and end systemic racism.

    Shift resources away from policing, jails and detention centers, endless wars and agencies that separate families. Shift resources into schools, housing, healthcare and jobs, to enable all people – especially Black and brown people, immigrants, and Indigenous people – to thrive.

    Eliminate restrictive local zoning rules that keep housing and schools segregated by race and class. Aid Black families, and other people of color harmed by redlining in buying homes.

    Respect the sovereignty of Indigenous Peoples and Tribal Nations.
