If Turner is the Republican nominee, somehow a deal will be worked out, to assure him the Conservative line as well.

Gillebrand, at this point, is a prohibitive favorite, but to have any chance to defeat her, the GOP and Conservatives MUST have the same candidate. Next case!

“Gillebrand, at this point, is a prohibitive favorite, but to have any chance to defeat her, the GOP and Conservatives MUST have the same candidate.”

I agree on both points, although I think that Gillibrand’s support is very soft and that Turner could be competitive.

If Turner wins the GOP nomination on June 26, how can he get the Conservative line as well? Remember, Hoffman had to stay on the ballot as the Conservative nominee in 2010 even after he ended his campaign and endorsed Doheny. And didn’t Rick Lazio have to get nominated as a judicial candidate in the Bronx in order for Paladino to be given the Conservative Party line?
