    some other numbers to call:

    NY Senate Republican Campaign Committee, 518-436-3865

    List of local Nassau Co. Republican Clubs with contact information:

    Original message:

    (Kaminsky voted for the SAFE Act. McDonald is a Democrat and member of Mayors Against Illegal Guns. Call Joe Mondello and tell him she is unacceptable - 516-334-5800.)

    http://www.newsday.com/long-island/politics/spin-cycle/add-mcdonald-vilardi-to-potential-gop-field-for-skelos-race-1.11354068

    Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan met Friday with Nassau County Republican leader Joe Mondello to discuss the race for a key vacancy as two other potential candidates emerged, sources said.

    Republicans are considering Malverne Mayor Patricia McDonald and Hewlett Republican Club President Jim Vilardi to run on the party's line to replace ex-Sen. Dean Skelos, the Rockville Centre Republican
    who was convicted on corruption charges last month.

    They are among a half dozen GOP names that have been discussed, including Assemb. Brian Curran (R-Lynbrook), Hempstead town councilman Bruce Blakeman, and Nassau County legislators Howard
    Kopel, of Lawrence, and Denise Ford, of Long Beach. 

    No decisions were made about the potential Republican candidate, despite the meeting between Flanagan and Mondello, sources said. 

    Nassau Democrats already have endorsed Assemb. Todd Kaminsky (D-Long Beach) to run for a seat that is essential to the Republicans' razor-thin majority in the Senate. Kaminsky has reported raising
    $332,000 to run for the seat.

    Both parties are expecting Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo to call a special election to fill the Skelos vacancy, possibly for April 19, the day of New York's presidential primary. However, Nassau Democratic Chairman Jay Jacobs has said potential voting machine complications could warrant a different date.

    Gun control supporters clear losers in yesterday's elections

     

    SAFE Act supporters lose their jobs across the state

     

     

    ALBANY, NY (11/05/2014)(readMedia)-- From Long Island to Buffalo yesterday's election results are a repudiation of gun control. Here are the results.

    On Long Island:
    * SAFE Act opponent Lee Zeldin defeated New Yorkers Against Gun Violence endorsed incumbent Congressman Tim Bishop in District 1.
    * SAFE Act supporter Assemblyman Ed Hennessey was defeated by pro-gun Dean Murray in District 3.

    In the Hudson Valley:
    * NYSRPA endorsed Sue Serino defeated New Yorkers Against Gun Violence endorsed incumbent and SAFE Act supporter Senator Terry Gipson in District 41.
    * New Yorkers Against Gun Violence Board member and endorsed candidate Justin Wagner was defeated for the second time in Senate District 40.

    In the Capital District:
    * NYSRPA endorsed George Amedore defeated incumbent SAFE Act supporter Senator Cecilia Tkaczyk in District 46.

    In the North Country:
    * SAFE Act supporter Assemblywoman Addie Russell lost to NRA endorsed John Byrne in District 116.

    In Central NY:
    * NRA endorsed John Katko defeated antigun incumbent Congressman Dan Maffei in District 24.

    In Western NY:
    * NYSRPA endorsed Peter Lawrence defeated New Yorkers Against Gun Violence endorsed Gary Pudup in Assembly District 134.
    * New Yorkers Against Gun Violence endorsed incumbent and SAFE Act supporter Senator Ted O'Brien lost in District 55.
    * New Yorkers Against Gun Violence endorsed incumbent and SAFE Act supporter Senator Mark Grisanti lost in District 60.

    "While Rob Astorino was unsuccessful in his gubernatorial bid, much of his loss can be attributed to the lack of support by the Republican establishment," said NYSRPA President Tom King. "Elsewhere, in elections across the state, gun control supporters were the clear losers. In fact, loss of the numeric Democrat majority in the State Senate can be directly attributed to the current administration's gun control policies."

    King concluded, "If the Republicans were smart they would learn from this. If not, they should consider this as well: In spite of the fact that Senator Martin Golden fully supported the so-called SAFE Act, New Yorkers Against Gun Violence still came out and publicly endorsed his opponent."

If the incumbent voted for the so-called SAFE Act and is rated "FS", vote for their opponent no matter who they are or what their grade is. They do not respect your civil rights."
