    Readers want more proof the crooks at the BOE are the biggest threat to democracy? Ralph Mohr's minions were out collecting petition names for the new Mayor Brown Buffalo party. Is it the Republican Party Chairman that sent them out there or the Fatman? Does it take anymore than common sense to see the absolute conflict of interest Mohr has created? Zellner and Mohr should be run out of their positions of power. They are traitors to the voting rights of all Erie county citizens.
    So it's fine to collect names on petitions for the opposing party while suing your own party member candidates in Lancaster? You are a CRUDEBALL of a politician Ralph Mohr.
    All those who have taken anything from Mohr are under his control. Every sitting politician of the Republican party is now under suspicion of crooked and dark doings by accepting his poisonous approach to winning. As long as you stay with him and keep him relevant, you will have to run against someone.
    Conservatives are going to start to bring the heat to the FAKE republican RINO regime of the Fatman. Not just in Lancaster Ralphy, but throughout the county.

    Hey Blunt,

    This is all so confusing.

    If I understood yesterday's Buffalo News article correctly, I thought that Mohr joined with Zellner in support of Walton?

    Republican Elections Commissioner Ralph M. Mohr proved a key vote in the federal case, joining with Democratic Elections Commissioner Jeremy J. Zellner in observing that new deadlines and confusion resulting from the earlier decisions would prove "untenable."

    Now your insights suggest that the Republicans are collecting petitions for Mayor Brown, correct?

    If true, what gives with those guys and their seeming Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde imitation(s)?

    Please, enlighten us readers!

    Mark, indeed they are, and at the Fatman's orders. Anyone can find that in public records. Keeping the citizens in the dark is the best thing for crooks like Mohr and Zellner. There is only one thing they are afraid of, actual votes against them and their clones. Lancaster has shown the way. I would expect every republican chairman in every town to start calling Mr. Sojka for his advice. I would also suggest that each republican committeeman that gave Ralph their proxy vote to re-elect himself again better get ready to defend his dirty way of doing business. You all are going to be pointed out as the RINO's you are. Just as happened in Lancaster, can and will happen in many towns. A very big change is coming to the political landscape of Erie county. I am confident that from top to bottom many are about to face the music.

    Mark:

    Confused or just outright angry that Mohr has been playing voters for years and getting away with it – much more so in Lancaster, his hometown. His candidate win record has been dismal in Lancaster from the time he was Lancaster Republican Chair up to the present when the party kingmaker chose his new lackey chair.

    Mohr is a true RINO and has been coordinating with the Lancaster Dems to select candidates for office for years. His recent party influence and collusion with the Lancaster Democratic Party to cross-endorse candidates in the primary led to all their candidates loosing handily.

    Unless the victorious primary ‘Real Republican’ candidates and same victorious endorsed Conservative Party candidates don’t trip over their tongues, they should be victorious in the November election. If they are not, Mohr, Zellner, and the county bosses have once again played the clueless voters.

    The following posts should be heeded:

    So it's fine to collect names on petitions for the opposing party while suing your own party member candidates in Lancaster?
    All those who have taken anything from Mohr are under his control. Every sitting politician of the Republican party is now under suspicion of crooked and dark doings by accepting his poisonous approach to winning.
    How any Republican or Conservative could accept the support of the Working Families Party is beyond my comprehension.
    Republican Elections Commissioner Ralph M. Mohr proved a key vote in the federal case, joining with Democratic Elections Commissioner Jeremy J. Zellner in observing that new deadlines and confusion resulting from the earlier decisions would prove "untenable."

    The ‘Real Republican’ and Conservative Party victorious primary candidates:
    Justice – Anthony Cervi (incumbent)
    Highway Superintendent – John Pilato
    Adam Dickman – Council (Incumbent)
    Mark Burkard – Council

    My understanding is that the winning Republican candidates will not return to the Republican Party fold. Good move, they have nothing to gain by associating themselves with a party spurning their endorsement petitions, and where two Republican Party incumbents were passed over. The candidates don't need the Republican Party, the Party needs them for regaining legitimacy and integrity!

    I am both confused and angry, Lee, and not just for the political machinations that have taken place this year, but for the conduct of some actors apparently connected with the current Lancaster Town Republican Committee leadership.

    Was not the 2021 REPDEM slate purportedly created for the purpose of serving the interests of political harmony in Lancaster?

    "McCracken said he and his Republican counterpart, Gregg Smith, in January began discussing whether to endorse the same candidates for office "in an effort to turn down the heat, relative to politics." The two committees agreed on a slate that left out a sitting Town Board member and town justice."
    Reference: https://buffalonews.com/news/local/l...gHzrVc7koYZDnY

    Regrettably, that representation notwithstanding, I direct your attention to these words which were written by the eloquent Lancaster Town Republican Secretary:

    In fact, such language is not limited to the Lancaster Town Republican Secretary.

    Here on Speak Up, if its words are to be taken at face value, the commenter Libslayer, seemed to suggest that it had an influential tie to Town Council candidate Paul Rudz:

    Among other negative comments, these are the words of Libslayer to a taxpayer and resident of Lancaster:

    Just a hunch, but comments such as "irrelevant" and "poop stain," directed to a life-long Lancaster taxpayer and resident, may not cast a favorable light on the commenter, its candidate, or its party's leadership, eh?

    Yea Lee, confused and angry.


    Indeed, it would appear that these Blunt words may have merit:

    Judges’ rulings open door for at least three potential candidates to circulate petitions

    By Robert J. McCarthy

    NEWS POLITICAL REPORTER

    More candidates for mayor of Buffalo are emulating Byron W. Brown’s last-minute efforts to qualify for the general election ballot, raising the possibility of a crowded November field that elections officials say could produce “chaos.”

    At least three potential candidates are now circulating designating petitions for mayor, said Erie County Republican Elections Commissioner Ralph M. Mohr, who predicts a spate of election law litigation could stem from the recent rulings by U.S. District Judge John L. Sinatra Jr. and State Supreme Court Justice Paul B. Wojtaszek. Both qualified Brown’s Buffalo Party for the ballot after missing state deadlines.

    “This is the problem with the judges’ ruling,” said Erie County Democratic Elections Commissioner Jeremy J. Zellner. “It allows for open chaos in the state.”

    Indeed, one of the write-in candidates competing in a Thursday mayoral debate with Brown and Democratic primary winner India B. Walton said Friday that he will circulate designating petitions at tailgate parties prior to today’s Pittsburgh Steelers-Buffalo Bills contest at Highmark Stadium, as well as in city bars during the game.

    “Judge Sinatra’s ruling found there was no deadline and opens the window for other candidates,” said attorney Benjamin S. Carl- See Electionon Page C2


    Write-in effort could be complicated

    ELECTION • from C1 isle, who anticipates little difficulty in gaining the 750 required signatures in coming days and the advantage of a place on the ballot versus the complicated write-in process.

    The possibility of candidates for various races across the state filing for office as a result of the Brown case, Zellner said, prompted the New York State Elections Commissioners Association to file a brief in support of the Erie decision to appeal. He noted, however, that the Erie County ballot – except for the contest for Buffalo mayor – has been certified and no other candidates are expected for other offices.

    In 2019, the State Legislature moved the filing deadline to appear on the ballot to no later than 23 weeks before the Nov. 2 election, or May 25 this year. The previous cutoff was 11 weeks before Election Day, which the Legislature changed in 2019 after the date of the primary was moved from September to June.

    On Sept. 3, Sinatra granted a preliminary injunction (later stayed by the U.S. Court of Appeals 2nd Circuit) prohibiting Erie County elections officials from enforcing traditional deadlines for petitions, and requiring them to put Brown’s name on the ballot. The Erie County Board of Elections voted last week to appeal the Sinatra decision, while Mohr and Zellner split their votes on the Wojtaszek ruling that resulted in no further action.

    Brown’s name remains on the ballot until the board’s appeal and another filed by the Walton campaign are considered in coming days.

    In the meantime, other ballot questions are clouding the process of electing a mayor of Buffalo on Nov. 2. The possibility of rulings qualifying Brown for the ballot could complicate the campaign that had been urging voters to write in his name after losing the June 22 primary. Brown’s “Write Down Byron Brown” signs have appeared on supporters’ front lawns throughout the city in recent weeks. But elections officials note that if Brown’s name appears on the Buffalo line of the ballot, a write-in vote will not be counted.

    “The focus of the campaign should be one or another; the law is very straightforward,” said state Board of Elections spokesman John W. Conklin. “If there is a write-in for a person whose name is on the ballot, that should not be counted.”

    Mohr, however, said much of the intent behind the write-in law stems from the days of lever voting machines and the effort of raising a panel at the top of the ballot to enter a vote. He said New York law emphasizes “intent of the voter,” and that concerns over double votes on the old machines have been eliminated under the new system based on paper ballots.

    “There is absolutely no reason why we need that law with paper,” Mohr said.

    “I think we will again end up in litigation,” he added.

    Mohr also said he may reconsider his own vote not to challenge the State Supreme Court ruling depending on the law established in any pending appeal. Brown’s attorney argued that Walton’s appeal should be rejected because she had no standing in the case, he noted, as opposed to the law’s constitutionality.

    “If the court says it will not hear the case because India Walton does not have standing because it’s not an election [law] case, the board may reconsider,” Mohr said. “We look to have a decision made on the merits and not on some procedural grounds.”

    Sources in the mayor’s campaign say it met the Legislature’s new deadlines while other candidates may not. And it anticipates no problem in educating voters about a possible new ballot line rather than the write-in process, possibly even switching out the “Write Down Byron Brown” signs.

    “The mayor’s campaign remains confident in the two rulings issued last week and that the mayor’s name will appear on the ballot,” said spokesman Conor Hurley, adding that he expects Brown’s supporters to be sufficiently committed to cast their votes via any method.
    Very bizarre!

    Does this not resonate with Lancaster's political machinations?

    Readers, I see "mohr" trouble heading toward the Erie County BOE. Things have gone on in the last couple of years that are way past ethical. There was grime all over that building. They all sleep in the same bed of shame. The focus of the leaders of each party is about self-service and not the voters' right to have a fair and OPEN election. There is plain and direct language within the BOE directives and bylaws stating a date certain to file. It says failure to file on time is a FATAL flaw. It's pretty clear.

    There is something else going on behind the curtains. Why would Mr. Zellner not make sure that the sitting democrat Mayor of Buffalo was in time with ALL that he needed to not have this problem??? Mr. Zellner holds the positions of both Dem Party Chairman and BOE Dem Commissioner. How in the world could he let his SITTING candidate for Mayor of Buffalo get into such a weak position? And why would Republican Commissioner Mohr send his minions out to collect signatures for the Brown campaign? Why would Mohr drop his second appeal when he knows what the rules are?

    The people of this county are being played by two scoundrels who are co-ordinating the "chaos" they both keep saying will happen. These two crooks need a public spanking. It must be hard to enforce the rules you need to when you don't always enforce ALL the rules ALL the time

    Stop playing politics from the BOE building and these things would not be happening. Political Party's should be led by the party Chairman, not the Commissioner of the BOE. It's that simple. Time to take a high pressure hose to that place and clean it up

    Well Readers,......whoopeee.....They're out "The Three Musketeers" without the "missing" Judge candidate on a new collectible campaign mailer. And I mean "collectible!!"

    First, on a more serious note, we have a missing Judge Candidate in the TOL fall election. Has anyone seen the Democrat candidate for the position of Town Judge?

    I remember a RINO Republican guy who ran a primary against an incumbent judge who already held the republican and conservative endorsements. I'm pretty sure he was on the democrat slate in the early spring of this year.

    So instead of "the Four Horsemen", we have " the Three Amigos", "the Three Musketeers" or more aptly "the Three Stooges"

    Think of it.... Paul Rudz, this is the man whose picture you will see when you look up RINO in the political dictionary. Another RINO willing to run against an incumbent republican! And to put a point on this, he actually took a call from the Democrat leadership and accepted their backslapping enforcement!!!!!!
    That gets you highlighted in the political dictionary as a RINO.
    But really there's more. Running on a slate that gladly accepts The Working Families endorsement, Paul Rudz, without hesitation stated during his interview at an endorsement meeting with the Conservative Party, he is for ending the Lancaster Police Dept to be replaced by contract with the Erie County Sherriff's.

    On the Great Democrat slate is the affable Mr Wozniak. A man who openly and proudly stated at his interview, with a RINO filled room at the republican endorsement meeting, " I am not comfortable being a Democrat because they as a party have gone way too far liberal for me"
    This is a guy who has not a very good track record so far as an elected official at getting big things done. His special talents were supposed to be in construction and building costs and the process involved within that endeavour. If he had been as busy at finding every penny available for the small project he was in charge of instead of securing jobs for all of his friends and family members, that building would already be there.

    On top of not being able to jump that low bar, Mr Wozniak continues to cover up for Golden Boy Amatura. The Third Stooge is Danny.
    Spending money left and right has been a way of life for the last few years for the Highway and Recreation departments. Mr Amatura has stepped on an awful lot of toes throughout his time in office. He is old school in every approach he takes on everything he does. He can't help himself. He is still the bully he has always been. It doesn't play well in today's environment. Here's a guy who said at his Fake Republican endorsement interview," I don't believe in all these R's and D's and C's and whatever".
    He doesn't believe in that kind of stuff? What made him change affiliations weeks before the deadline last year to Conservative after years of being a Democrat?
    He's as political as they come. He plays as dirty as he can get away with. It's starting to finally wear on people.

    What a slate. An old Highway Superintendent caught up in a "dump for campaign donation" scheme with many questions being asked about his actions during his daily duties.
    We have a Village Trustee Rudz who is causing trouble for innocent victims while trying to promote his campaign for a Town Board seat. A position he will use to study how to save money by getting rid of the paid Town Police force and modernizing it with a contracted Erie County Sherriff's force.Something the Working Family Party would wholly support.
    What a Shining Light of Leadership they would make together!

    Hey Blunt, I think that Rudz said that he would have been a fool not to accept that endorsement, did he not?

    The distinction between the Libslayer quote and the Lincoln quote is what separates a RINO from a Real Republican, eh Mr. Blunt?
