Yeah I know Balboni was in on it. I remember he was part of the corrupt Nassau County Tammity Hall Gullotta years.

So the Republican count was 38-0.

I just can't belive the upstate senators who are usually the only voices of sanity all brought into this crap. I am going to let my senator (Little) hear from me big time (My assembly member voted against it).

This bill if it's not overturned means doom for us. My area depends almost entirely on tourist which a large percentage comes down from Quebec and we all know how the French like to smoke, Well they will be going to Vermont now (Yeah they have a smoking ban but it is weak) and during winters there are few tourist and everybody just eeks out a living and going to restaurants/bars is a luxary, People aren't going to take not being able to smoke and are just going to choose to stay home.

THis is just unbelievable, I am still in shock, I had an accident last weekend while hiking and I broke my nose badly and I been taking painkillers and I am really hoping that all this is just a drug induced nightmare.

My Assemblyman (Fitzpatrick) also voted against the measure. I have called his office to thank him for his vote.

Still haven't heard from Flanagan, but that's OK...the longer he makes me wait, the angrier I'm going to be, and I'm already pretty ticked off as it is.

In related news, keep an eye on RINO Senator Ken LaValle...he's the genius trying to push through legislation that will allow NYS to collect taxes on ALL internet purchases. I've got a call in to his office, too.

One of the other posters on this thread commented on how we here in New York truly have no choice but to vote third party -- there is literally NO difference between the GOP and Dems -- and ten bucks says nobody will be able to show me proof otherwise.

Regards,
