For me, if I really want an understanding of where I think each candidate is going to go; I have been researching their voting records and bills they support. I think it’s a good indication of what I can expect from each candidate in the future and I am basing my vote on a lot of that research I have been doing



Do you honestly really need to do that? You haven't seen what Hochul has done to this state?



Absolutely I need to research each candidate. How else would I be informed to make a decision?




ITA with researching a candidate but with one in office already and seeing how they are doing and what they have enforced, I am not sure how this is not an open and shut case with this election.

I think we all know what we can "expect" from Hochul.
She's made it quite clear where she stands on the issues listed above.

Exactly and if anyone votes for her, they need to open their eyes and listen to the news to see what is going on.

That is like saying I need to research Biden if he runs for a 2nd term. I wonder if the poster also researched Trump to see if they wanted to vote for him again.

What issues listed above?
I can look at Zeldin's record on SALT and his vote on the Jobs Act that capped our property taxes dedcutions. Zeldin also voted the Suozzi bill that aimed to remove SALT.
He voted nay to gas price gouging.
He just voted nay on the Access to Contraception bill along with his stated views on abortion. He voted dismantle ACA
He also voted against protecting a women's right to travel across state lines to seek an abortion.
He voted nay on Assault Weapons Ban and I would like to see continued reform on assault weapons as that is an important issue to me.
I have issue with him being election denier and trying to get votes in other state discarded.
I am look at the leglistaltion he did sponsor that is important to me...gang acts, Quantum infrastructure bill, Veteran's Family needs act to name a couple.

Both candidates have stated that they would review cashless bail in NYS and how it's been implemented.
While Hochul has been governor for the last 14 months - the LIE has been paved out by me. There are improvements with 347. There have been some improvements made to the assess of assault weapons. She has supported the infrastructure bill that would bring funds to NYS for some desperately needed projects. She has allocated money for a Clean Drinking Water bill statewide.
I am opposed to the congestion pricing for NYC. Not crazy about a Bills stadium and who that was handed out.
So for me, there are pros and cons with both candidates.

My main concern -she won't say what she plans to do with mandating that vaccine for children to attend school.
He has.
I couldn't care less about the LIE being paved as comps to forcing that vaccine on my child if I"m being honest.
And honestly, I'm sure he, or anyone else, would have gotten it paved too. She just happened to be in office

The paving was ONLY done for votes. That is not hard to see. Anything she has done recently is for votes.
I think paving is the LEAST of our worries honestly.

NO politician is perfect and will keep their promises but seeing what she has done to the city and ask Zeldin WHY he is so concerned about crime is a no brainer to me.

What has Hochul done to NYC? DeBlasio has more to do with what NYC is going through then any other politician, IMO. And this is an honest question - what is Zeldin proposing that will affect NYC? I haven't been able to find a plan to conquers that because I do agree that NYC has some serious problems.
Are you referring to cashless bail which was implemented in 2019? I question what any governor may be able to do with legislation that has already been passed into law because the veto opportunity is gone.
One thing I do hate is marijuana and the ease at which it can be consumed publicly.

I didn't get to see that debate yet but I know he mentioned the crime in the city and she asked him why does he care. What kind of question is that? You can't even go into the subways anymore without fear of being pushed or stabbed and these people get a slap on the wrist and let go right away.

The marijuana doesn't bother me in the least, except the smell which I detest. I feel it should be legal.

You should watch the debate. I don't think you may have the entire context.

“It is a joke to talk about a crime policy that doesn’t include doing something about illegal guns,” - I think this is the quote you are referring to.

ETA: Zeldin came across well in the debate. I think you would enjoy it.

Once again, doesn’t this scare you? Doesn’t it scare you that he called out for a dead women? As much as I don’t like Trump, you can’t compare that this man is hanging on by a thread.

I can look at Zeldin's record on SALT and his vote on the Jobs Act that capped our property taxes dedcutions. Zeldin also voted the Suozzi bill that aimed to remove SALT.
He voted nay to gas price gouging.
He just voted nay on the Access to Contraception bill along with his stated views on abortion. He voted dismantle ACA
He also voted against protecting a women's right to travel across state lines to seek an abortion.
He voted nay on Assault Weapons Ban and I would like to see continued reform on assault weapons as that is an important issue to me.
I have issue with him being election denier and trying to get votes in other state discarded.
I am look at the leglistaltion he did sponsor that is important to me...gang acts, Quantum infrastructure bill, Veteran's Family needs act to name a couple.

Both candidates have stated that they would review cashless bail in NYS and how it's been implemented.
While Hochul has been governor for the last 14 months - the LIE has been paved out by me. There are improvements with 347. There have been some improvements made to the assess of assault weapons. She has supported the infrastructure bill that would bring funds to NYS for some desperately needed projects. She has allocated money for a Clean Drinking Water bill statewide.
I am opposed to the congestion pricing for NYC. Not crazy about a Bills stadium and who that was handed out.
So for me, there are pros and cons with both candidates.



My main concern -she won't say what she plans to do with mandating that vaccine for children to attend school.
He has.
I couldn't care less about the LIE being paved as comps to forcing that vaccine on my child if I"m being honest.
And honestly, I'm sure he, or anyone else, would have gotten it paved too. She just happened to be in office




The paving was ONLY done for votes. That is not hard to see. Anything she has done recently is for votes.
I think paving is the LEAST of our worries honestly.

NO politician is perfect and will keep their promises but seeing what she has done to the city and ask Zeldin WHY he is so concerned about crime is a no brainer to me.



What has Hochul done to NYC? DeBlasio has more to do with what NYC is going through then any other politician, IMO. And this is an honest question - what is Zeldin proposing that will affect NYC? I haven't been able to find a plan to conquers that because I do agree that NYC has some serious problems.
Are you referring to cashless bail which was implemented in 2019? I question what any governor may be able to do with legislation that has already been passed into law because the veto opportunity is gone.
One thing I do hate is marijuana and the ease at which it can be consumed publicly.



I didn't get to see that debate yet but I know he mentioned the crime in the city and she asked him why does he care. What kind of question is that? You can't even go into the subways anymore without fear of being pushed or stabbed and these people get a slap on the wrist and let go right away.

The marijuana doesn't bother me in the least, except the smell which I detest. I feel it should be legal.



You should watch the debate. I don't think you may have the entire context.

“"Anyone who commits a crime under our laws, especially with the change they made to bail, has consequences. I don't know why that's so important to you,"...".It is a joke to talk about a crime policy that doesn’t include doing something about illegal guns,” - I think this is the quote you are referring to.

ETA: Zeldin came across well in the debate. I think you would enjoy it.

For me, if I really want an understanding of where I think each candidate is going to go; I have been researching their voting records and bills they support. I think it’s a good indication of what I can expect from each candidate in the future and I am basing my vote on a lot of that research I have been doing



Do you honestly really need to do that? You haven't seen what Hochul has done to this state?



I think we all know what we can "expect" from Hochul.

Pretty sure his point was that there are more crimes not involving guns that she is not taking care of.

I agree but the way you stated it above gave the impression that Hochul was asking that because she did not care about crime in NYC.
Cashless bail isn't to let those out that are accused of committing violent crimes. Cashless bail should not be afforded to them.
In regard to the bail reform, I think the reclassifying of crimes to be classified as non-violent crimes is a real issue. NYS has gone through lessening crimes and status to appear to be safer for years and years. I do believe that needs to be addressed.

The marijuana doesn't bother me in the least, except the smell which I detest. I feel it should be legal.

I quite literally can’t believe there is anyone left in NYC who will defend bail reform. It’s not working. Period.

He also voted against protecting a women's right to travel across state lines to seek an abortion.
He voted nay on Assault Weapons Ban and I would like to see continued reform on assault weapons as that is an important issue to me.
I have issue with him being election denier and trying to get votes in other state discarded.
I am look at the leglistaltion he did sponsor that is important to me...gang acts, Quantum infrastructure bill, Veteran's Family needs act to name a couple.

Both candidates have stated that they would review cashless bail in NYS and how it's been implemented.
While Hochul has been governor for the last 14 months - the LIE has been paved out by me. There are improvements with 347. There have been some improvements made to the assess of assault weapons. She has supported the infrastructure bill that would bring funds to NYS for some desperately needed projects. She has allocated money for a Clean Drinking Water bill statewide.
I am opposed to the congestion pricing for NYC. Not crazy about a Bills stadium and who that was handed out.
So for me, there are pros and cons with both candidates.



Sooo in other words u’re voting for hochul, lol! U could have just said that and save some time. Lol!

No I haven’t made my mind up yet. I have reservations about Hochul as well. Very uncomfortable about Buffalo Bill Stadium and the quid pro quo with that
I also believe that Zeldin has a better understanding of the downstate needs then Hochul has. Being that he lives here and we are his constituents. He may have a better understanding of the taxes that are burden to us that is solely unique did downstate

For me, if I really want an understanding of where I think each candidate is going to go; I have been researching their voting records and bills they support. I think it’s a good indication of what I can expect from each candidate in the future and I am basing my vote on a lot of that research I have been doing



Do you honestly really need to do that? You haven't seen what Hochul has done to this state?



I think we all know what we can "expect" from Hochul.
She's made it quite clear where she stands on the issues listed above.


What issues listed above?
I can look at Zeldin's record on SALT and his vote on the Jobs Act that capped our property taxes dedcutions. Zeldin also voted the Suozzi bill that aimed to remove SALT.
He voted nay to gas price gouging.
He just voted nay on the Access to Contraception bill along with his stated views on abortion. He voted dismantle ACA
He also voted against protecting a women's right to travel across state lines to seek an abortion.
He voted nay on Assault Weapons Ban and I would like to see continued reform on assault weapons as that is an important issue to me.

My main concern -she won't say what she plans to do with mandating that vaccine for children to attend school.
He has.
I couldn't care less about the LIE being paved as comps to forcing that vaccine on my child if I"m being honest.
And honestly, I'm sure he, or anyone else, would have gotten it paved too. She just happened to be in office




The paving was ONLY done for votes. That is not hard to see. Anything she has done recently is for votes.
I think paving is the LEAST of our worries honestly.

NO politician is perfect and will keep their promises but seeing what she has done to the city and ask Zeldin WHY he is so concerned about crime is a no brainer to me.



What has Hochul done to NYC? DeBlasio has more to do with what NYC is going through then any other politician, IMO. And this is an honest question - what is Zeldin proposing that will affect NYC? I haven't been able to find a plan to conquers that because I do agree that NYC has some serious problems.
Are you referring to cashless bail which was implemented in 2019? I question what any governor may be able to do with legislation that has already been passed into law because the veto opportunity is gone.
One thing I do hate is marijuana and the ease at which it can be consumed publicly.



I didn't get to see that debate yet but I know he mentioned the crime in the city and she asked him why does he care. What kind of question is that? You can't even go into the subways anymore without fear of being pushed or stabbed and these people get a slap on the wrist and let go right away.

The marijuana doesn't bother me in the least, except the smell which I detest. I feel it should be legal.



You should watch the debate. I don't think you may have the entire context.

“It is a joke to talk about a crime policy that doesn’t include doing something about illegal guns,” - I think this is the quote you are referring to.

ETA: Zeldin came across well in the debate. I think you would enjoy it.



Pretty sure his point was that there are more crimes not involving guns that she is not taking care of.



I agree but the way you stated it above gave the impression that Hochul was asking that because she did not care about crime in NYC.
Cashless bail isn't to let those out that are accused of committing violent crimes. Cashless bail should not be afforded to them.
In regard to the bail reform, I think the reclassifying of crimes to be classified as non-violent crimes is a real issue. NYS has gone through lessening crimes and status to appear to be safer for years and years. I do believe that needs to be addressed.



I quite literally can’t believe there is anyone left in NYC who will defend bail reform. It’s not working. Period.

What do you base that statement on? When you look at recidivism from 2019 to 2020 there’s only one percent difference.
I think the increased crime and reporting of crime in the city has to do with Covid and another extreme lack of services. People that have little means go to the places it’s easy to get to which would be large cities like New York City. I don’t think that a revision of cashless bail is going to solve a crime problem. I think it would be great if cashless bail reform did dramatically drop crime rates. I just don’t think that’s realistic or will stand the problem
