Yesterday I read that USA Rep Elise Stefanik (R-NY) is dropping out of NY's 2026 gubernatorial race.

This comes a couple weeks after I communicated with the NY GOP about "When's the primary?"

So now we've only got 1 person in the whole state running on the GOP ticket. It's Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman, who seems like a great guy, but
he's old and soft-spoken. Can old and soft spoken defeat a snake/rat/lizard mutant?

But the NYGOP gave me a date for the primary and I'm gonna hold them to it. We can't have only 1 person in the whole state who wants to save it.

You know this guy... Have a listen.

Elise is stepping down because there is noway she can win NY in a General, too conservative. The other guy you are talking about has a chance to win the seat.

Elise is not even going to run for Congress in the fall.

I think they have plans for her, she is a great solder.

I have to admit that I can't copy/paste links from the BBS because of the web-only connection.

The big problem that I see here in NY is that Kathy Hochul has enticed black voters with the hopes of receiving racial reparations, and there's no reason for us to expect NY's black voters to do what's right. The only way this guy can pull it off is if he promises the same thing, and I don't think he'll do that.

This maybe true... I see Kathy is backtracking on some of the climate policies to get the cost of fuel down, or to look like she's trying, so that she might get re-elected.

Republicans need to support each other like Democrats do... Republicans will fight amongst themselves loosing race after race.

2026 may be the most important midterm ever!! Stick together!!!!

Just let it evolve.

I told you that I was "conservative" for most of my life. I became more political later in life.

I recall watching Trump back when her ran for his 1st term and I was almost sick to my stomach when he won the Republican primary.

Not that I cared too much about Trump. I just didn't want Hillary in and I didn't know if Trump could pull it off.

He did and he became a great President where the Deep State, Elites, Political Hacks and Elites, the list goes on and on. They all tried to destroy him. They all tried to throw him in jail and bankrupt him... They even tried to kill him.

I saw this unfold over the last 10 years or so... I have come to see what the other side has to offer.

So, I am America 1st more than a Republican.

I'm for whatever the media is against, and for the time being, they're strongly against Republicans. If that ever changes, I'll change too.
