    Erie County Democratic Party won'r be endoseing any candidates

    Chairman Jeremy Zellner released a statement today regarding Assemblywoman Wozniak.

    The endless stream of scandal from Albany has created nothing less than a crisis of confidence in state government. The people of the 143rd Assembly District have now had to endure two such disgraces in a row, and it is time for political parties to fight back against such indefensible conduct.

    Our party has always sought to recruit and run individuals of the highest caliber, and it has been our tradition to carefully consider candidates on the basis of performance of duty and personal integrity.

    It will now be the official policy of the Erie County Democratic Committee to deny the endorsement of candidates who are under investigation or sanctioned for ethics violations.
    If necessary, we will withdraw our endorsement if such information comes to light after the committee has voted.
    Seriously, how hard would it be for any opposition party to get an ethics investigation started of just about any candidate. I'll bet Jeremy pulls this one back and eliminates the "under investigation" criteria.

    Hell, there isn't an incumbent that someone couldn't find something to justify filing a complaint and starting an investigation.

    Have they cancelled all fundraisers for Hillary until her FBI investigation finally ends?

    Has Jeremy reached out to Bernie because I think that's the only candidate left for them

    He was careful to state "for ethics violations" - that is about the only investigative group that hasn't started investigating her so far. If their are no apparent "Ethics" how can they be investigated ?
