2pelo Honey Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 What did anyone do to help City Republicans? Sad to see City Council taken over by PLOT flakes. I had hoped the recent redistricting would've helped keep them more to a minimum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad to see City Council taken over by PLOT flakes. I had hoped the recent redistricting would've helped keep them more to a minimum. Yard signs, got word out and voted; all that could be expected from an average voter. But what about supposed “leaders”? Remember when that creeping cockroach Dave Hamlin ( then GOP county chair) dubbed Rich David a “leader”? So, what leadership qualities did he demonstrate this election cycle in the city for which he surely would say he cares so much? Whatever it was, if anything at all, was pathetically insufficient, and certainly not demonstrative of “leadership”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solak Supporter Posted November 11, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2023 Surely the politically astute “leader” knew of PLOT’s plans for City Council. Surely he would do everything in his power to help his successor avoid facing a veto-proof Democrat City Council. So, what did this “leader” do to help GOP candidates, and his successor?

SU75 Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 I don't think blame goes to Rich David. He did very well with council elections during his tenure as mayor. He won back the Republican majority in 2015, and they retained the majority gaining the east side seat to increase the majority in 2019.

The GOP leadership is responsible for their City Council candidates being shut out. Surely someone that was mayor as recently as 2021, that was the party’s state senate candidate last year, and who could be their county exec candidate next year, qualifies as a local GOP leader. That he did well while he was mayor is all the more reason he should have been out there in a big way for those 2023 GOP candidates. But he was too lazy, and didn’t do it. He left those candidates, and his succesor hanging. Consequently, the city is at the mercy of hard-bitten leftists. He and his fellow “leaders” are to blame.

Not a matter of hate. It’s a matter of fact. The GOP leadership - of which last year’s state senate losing candidate is part - failed this year’s Binghamton City Council candidates. You would think someone wanting to run against an incumbent county executive next year, would want to be seen working hard this year, showing he was a true team player. But no, he was too shortsighted, too entitled, and just plain too lazy. Jason will annihilate hiim. He will trot out the same lame excuses, and there will be plenty of conformist dupes, saps, and suckers ready to believe him, because that is far easier than admitting being had by an imposter like him.

Word is your opinion is shared, and that having served the political cock block purpose he was intended to serve, he is longer wanted or needed by local GOP powers that be. Plus, Donna Lupardo and Leah Webb have teamed up and shown they can put a one-sided ass whuppin’ on the GOP in the City of Binghamton. So, illusory GOP support, and well coordinated Dem opposition may equal the end of the political career of the “businessman”, “developer”and “entrepreneur” in 2024.

2pelo Honey Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 I don’t believe Donna or Lea are capable of that. I think the libs got lucky with timing, b/c of that damn trial. It polarized the snowflakes and got them out to vote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the trial was that energizing Matt Ryan would have been a lot closer, or would have won the DA race. The Dem Committee campaign mailings were much better than the GOP’s. They incuded Donna and Leah prominently, so they had some hand in it, some money, and some obvious coordination with Binghamton City Council Dem candidates. They supported their candidates more strongly in a visible way. The local GOP’ s effort was lackluster and lackadaisical. The results show it, and the City of Binghamton will suffer for it, unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not as if the GOP leadership had no idea the trial was coming, could’nt have accounted for its impact in advance. Dem mailers were superior. Dem organization and coordination were superior. GOP was lazy, and lost all 2023 Binghamton City Council races because of laziness, just like Rich David lost to Leah Webb in 2022, because of laziness.

Masty Huba Posted November 27, 2023 Report Share Posted November 27, 2023 What did Tipsy Joe Mihalko do to help the candidates? He's a former member of city council, and he currently holds office. He can do more than Rich David could have done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both will be on next year’s GOP ticket, unless they bow out, or are successfully primaried. Even if they lose a primary, the leadership will undermine the winner. They don’t like candidates they haven’t handpicked. They would rather lose with someone they control, than win with someone they don’t control.

Solak Supporter Posted December 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2023 Who will be the Murderers Row 2024 slate chosen by the same local GOP leadership that went 0 for 7 in the Binghamton City Council races? Is Rich David demanding accountablity from anyone on that 0 for 7 performance? Given the predicament into which such an lop-sided loss put his successor as Mayor of Binghamton, shouldn’t he be doing so? After all, then County GOP leader Dave Hamlin dubbed Rich David “a leader” when Rich dutifully re-entered the Binghamton mayor’s race to act as a political cock block for the criminal Libous political machine. Where was this “leader” in 2023 when he was needed? PR-ing his way through the day and partying through the night? When 2024’s music stops he won’t have a seat.

Solak Supporter Posted December 11, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2023 January 15 Rich David has to file his New York State Board of Elections campaign finance report, unless he dissolves his committee before then. Word is he’s got next to no money, squandering most of what he had left from 2022 on polling. The polling results had him losing a 2024 Broome County Executive race against incumbent Jason Garnar by a significant margin. Local poltical musical chairs for 2024 has started. When the music stops November 5, 2024, Rich David will have no chair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
