AUERBACH TAKES LEAD IN COMPTROLLER'S RACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Elliott Auerbach has taken the lead in the race for Ulster County Comptroller. Elliott is leading Quigley by 74 votes with 5 districts left to be counted. Keep thinking positive my friends, the worm has turned!!
Ironic how Woodstock got the votes for the charter to pass and Woodstock is the same town that ended up taking Quigley out. Apparently, Woodstock does not like Jim Quigley and his politics.
When I asked Auerbach by email "How many votes were cast for you on the Working Families line?" he replied "3,139 out of 38,828."
While it's possible -perhaps even likely- that those votes would have been cast for him on the Democratic line, his "photo-finish" race really illustrates the value and importance of a third party line. In elections all across the state, WFP votes are often the margin for a winning Democrat candidate.
The race is not over yet! And, yes the Working Families party has been extremly important in this race, no question. Just as important as the Ind and Con line has helped Quigley.

This is a nail biter!
No comment about Jacobs being bounced?
Jacobs bounced? Perhaps the most influential pug in gop circles is none other than Mr. Blaber himself!
Row A all the way!!!

Is this a good time to spend $2 million re-decorating the 6th Floor? We voted for a leader not a King.
