Incumbent Republican Councilwoman Inna Vernikov won her re-election despite her recently being charged with carrying a firearm in a “sensitive location.”
This proves yet again that gun control is not the hot issue advocates say it is even in places like New York City.
Support James Asmus for Nassau County Legislature.
His incumbent opponent Arnold Drucker co-sponsored a number of gun control bills last year plus a mandatory storage resolution back in 2018.

Going to plug these candidates:
Assorted antigun candidates running:
Nassau Co.:
Rockland Co.:

I have not investigated their background so this is FYI only.

I am honored to be named a Gun Sense Candidate by @MomsDemand Action. As the leader of a community struck by a terrible mass shooting, I will always fight for common sense gun reforms to better protect all.

Reporting at the Long Island Press identifies 3 candidates running for Nassau Co. Legislature this fall attended this dog-and-pony show: Alexis Pace, District #4, Seth Koslow, District #5 and Weihua Yan, District #10. Vote for their opponents no matter who they are.
