Preliminary election coda

On: By: admin

Preliminary election coda. Republicans appear to have knocked out the following incumbents all of whom were antigun.

Congress:

State Senate:

State Assembly:

This is a surprise considering the Republicans have no leadership or agenda in the state. They even were eclipsed by “no party affiliation” in voter registrations. Despite this bounceback, they are still in the minority and have no ability to block the Democrats agenda or advance one of their own.

Reminder for Republicans

On: By: admin

Yet another reminder for Republicans: Voting for gun control crap like Sue Serino did with “red flag” does not prevent gun control advocates from endorsing your opponent in the general election.

Why?

On: By: admin

Why did someone bother to do this in a county where registered Democrats outnumber Republicans about 6 to 1 in a state where Democrats outnumber Republicans about 2.3 to 1?

McMurray is a loud and proud antigunner

On: By: admin

Nate McMurray is a loud and proud gun control advocate running for Congress in CD-27.

The Buffalo News writes:

“Nate McMurray approaches his third election night as a congressional candidate as the same proud progressive who lost his first two such campaigns … He’s a gun control supporter who has challenged, rather than placated, the gun owners of rural Western New York … McMurray explained that while he’s been engaged in an ongoing Twitter battle with gun rights supporters, he’s been around guns his whole life and knows a lot about them. Knowing what he knows, McMurray said the sale of new assault weapons should be banned; he says they are dangerous and unnecessary. He said background checks should be expanded to cover gun shows, and Congress should strip gun manufacturers of their liability immunity …”

Hopefully after three strikes he’s out.
