Yonkers Insider: Town of Greenburgh Report.

Early voting today starting at noon to 6 PM at Greenburgh Town Hall. Tomorrow from noon to 6 PM. Entertainment schedule on the website: yoga, musicians, food trucks. During the past week Union Baptist Church even provided voters with free refreshments! Our voting site at Town Hall is live streamed on the town website so you can determine when best to vote. During the past week Greenburgh Health Center gave out almost 100 flu shots to voters. There are 3 lines: for everyone: the elderly and the disabled. Those who are disabled don't have to wait on line. Those who want to drop off absentee ballots don't have to wait on lines. You can vote at any early voting location in Westchester - not only Greenburgh Town Hall. It's possible, but not guaranteed, that other lines may be shorter.

Yonkers Insider: Election 2020 Campaign Trail: DO ME A FAVOR VOTE FOR YONKERS CITY COURT JUDGE THOMAS DALY ON ELECTION DAY.

 

Do me a favor, please read and share!   * * * * * * * * * * * I need your help. Election Day is nearly upon us and I'm asking you to support my friend Judge Tom Daly. Judge Daly is currently running for re-election for Judge of the Yonkers City Court. He served as Judge for over 20 years, including 15 years heading up the Domestic Violence part. During his time on the Yonkers City Court, Judge Daly has honorably and fairly served the people of Yonkers. In addition, Tom is a warm and personable individual and someone I'm proud to call my friend. In addition to his experience, you should also know that Judge Daly is the ONLY elected Judge on the ballot, and the ONLY candidate to be nominated and endorsed by all 5 parties.  There has never been a more critical time to choose honesty and integrity, over politics. Judge Daly came up about 150 votes shy in the Primary but you can still find him on the ballot on the Conservative and Republican lines. His tenure as a lifelong Democrat and cross-endorsement by all 5 parties, speaks to his ability to remain non-partisan and rule fairly and administer justice for all who come before him. The phrase "People over Politics" couldn't be more applicable here. So, whether it's by mail, early voting, or in-person on November 3rd, please be sure to make your voice heard and support my friend Judge Tom Daly.   * * * * * * * * * * * Judge Daly - only candidate elected TWICE by the people of Yonkers  Judge Daly - only elected Yonkers City Court Judge on the ballot Judge Daly - only candidate to lead the Integrated Domestic Violence court for the past 15 years Judge Daly - only candidate to be nominated and endorsed by all 5 parties   campaign update endorsements Judge Daly has garnered significant support and official endorsements throughout his campaign.  We are humbled to have received support from such a wide and diverse group of organizations and leaders in our community.

Yonkers Insider Sports Corner: Statement from Fred Wilpon.

 STATEMENT FROM FRED WILPON

“On behalf of the Wilpon and Katz families, we are very pleased with the result of today’s ownership vote. We’d like to thank Commissioner Manfred for his leadership and guidance through this process.

It has been a privilege and honor for our families to have been a part of this great franchise for the past 40 years. We would like to express our deep appreciation for our loyal and passionate fans, who have consistently supported this organization through the years. We’d also like to thank the many great players, managers, coaches, and dedicated employees with whom we’ve been privileged to work with through the years, for their commitment to the interests of our organization, our industry, and our community.

I know that Steve Cohen and his family share the same passion we’ve had for the Mets and for this City. Steve will continue, and will build upon, this organization’s longstanding commitment to the support of our community, and of those in need, which is especially important at this time. He shares the view that Saul, Jeff and I have long held, that ownership of the Mets is a public trust. I know that he will take that as seriously as we always have.

Steve and his family are lifelong Mets fans and we wish them, and our fans, nothing but success on and off the field in the future.”

Yonkers Insider: Election 2020 Campaign Trail: The Yonkers Times puts their support behind Judge Daly!

 

* endorsement alert *   The Yonkers Times  endorses Judge Daly! "...There are many reasons to vote for Tom Daly on November 3. Daly has served on the City Court for 20 years without controversy or incident. A good judge should be seen and not heard nor remembered, but serve by adjudicating the proceedings before him or her fairly, so that both parties at the end of the hearing believe that they got a fair review. Judge Tom Daly has delivered that fairness and that is the primary reason we endorse his re-election. Daly will also serve as the Chief Judge of the Yonkers Court if elected and we want his experience serving as Chief Judge, especially when new judges are coming onto the court."

Yonkers Insider: Election 2020 Campaign Trail: PBA of Westchester Endorses Astorino for State Senate.

 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: POLICEMEN’S BENEVOLENT ASSOCIATION OF WESTCHESTER COUNTY ENDORSES ASTORINO FOR STATE SENATE.

---

Joins Affiliated Police Associations of Westchester Inc.; Dutchess County Deputy Sheriff's PBA, Putnam County Sheriffs PBA; State Troopers PBA, New York State Fraternal Order of Police; Every New York City PBA in Backing Tough-on-Crime Former County Executive Astorino for State Senate Seat. 

Hudson Valley-Oct. 30…

The Policemen's Benevolent Association of Westchester County Inc. has joined with virtually every statewide and regional law enforcement association in endorsing former two-term Westchester county executive Rob Astorino for state senate in New York’s 4oth District.  The PBA of Westchester was incorporated in 1914, making it one of the oldest police organizations in the state.  

 

 The PBA of Westchester joins the Affiliated Police Associations of Westchester Inc.; Dutchess County Deputy Sheriff's PBA, Putnam County Sheriffs PBA; State Troopers PBA, New York State Fraternal Order of Police, and all New York City PBAs in backing Mr. Astorino for the state senate over incumbent State Senator Peter Harckham. 

 

In endorsing Mr. Astorino for state senate, PBA of Westchester President Joseph Giustino said, “The Policemen's Benevolent Association of Westchester County Inc. officially endorses Rob Astorino for State Senate on the November 3rd ballot in 2020. Rob's past record of support for Law and Order and Law Enforcement is what we need in these times of unrest. We have confidence in Rob's ability and judgement to fight for a safer New York. We trust and need Rob Astorino in the New York State Senate to fight for Law and Order. The President and the Board of Directors of The PBA of West. Co. Inc. wishes Rob success in his race for the Senate of New York State.” 

 

“I am tremendously grateful for all the support I have received from New York’s law enforcement community,” Mr. Astorino said. “These are the men and women who keep us safe day and night, and the radical policies of Bill de Blasio and Peter Harkham are hamstringing their efforts and putting everyone in danger. I will defend the law enforcement community in Albany, not defund it, and I will do everything in my power to repeal Mr. Harckham’s dangerous no-cash-bail law that triggered the ongoing crime wave.”

Yonkers Insider: Westchester County Legislator MaryJane Shimsky, 12th District: New Seat Belt Law Effective Nov. 1.

 Dear Friends and Neighbors,

New York State's new seat belt law goes into effect November 1.

Under the new law, all motor vehicle passengers 16 and older must be restrained by a seat belt, whether they are in the front seat or the back seat.  The prior law only required seat belts for front-seat passengers.

I'm proud to have joined all my colleagues on the Board of Legislators in a letter last July urging Governor Cuomo to sign the measure, which he did in August.

A statewide seat belt observational survey conducted in June 2018 showed that seat belt use rate was at a historical high of 93%. Despite these gains in usage, roughly 33% of the front-seat occupants killed on New York State roadways are unrestrained. When unbelted back seat occupants killed are included, the total unrestrained killed percentage rises to approximately 37%.

Increasing seat belt use is the most effective way to reduce crash-related injuries and fatalities.

So please, buckle up.

Sincerely,
