Why did voters fail to give majority support to their neighbors, Tom DiNapoli, Robert Zimmerman, Anna Kaplan and Chuck Schumer?
Were their opponents offering solutions to perceived problems like crime on the NYC subways or inflation and fuel costs which are all declining?
Why weren’t the points made regarding freedom of religion and a women’s right to choose? Confronting hate and jealousy paramount in our decision-making? Are these points less important than what goes on in New York City? Are we that comfortable in our environment?
Why would our community abandon the very people they supported in the past? Do they not value the same values you hold? Have they not earned your support for reelection? Have they not worked hard enough to have your continued support?
Have they personally failed you as elected officials in their respective positions as U.S. senator and majority leader, as comptroller of State of New York, Â as your New York State senator?
As a resident of Nassau County, what occurs in New York City is beyond the provenance of those that represent us as our elected officials. Further, in the case of state Senate, they are only one of over 60 other elected senators.
Freedom was on the line! Freedom of religion, freedom of choice.
Democracy was on the line. If your freedom is taken away, what are you left  with?
Most of the United States chose freedom. Sadly the majority of Great Neck turned their backs on Freedom.
Our country is based on liberty, freedom and choice.
