Liberty candidate for special election in NY to replace Rep. Weiner?

[AlexMerced]

If anyone can point me in the right direction as to where I file the paperwork, I'll start this weekend

 

[AlexMerced]

Alex, with respect, that's not the kind of attitude that will garner support. If you're going to do it. Then do it. If you are unsure and don't think it is something you can handle, then don't do it.

I think if you tried, you'd be surprised at how much you can get done, while keeping your day job.

lol, good point, I'll do it

I have to be a citizen of NYS for 7 years I've been here since 2008, does anyone know if they are usually pretty strict about that?

I have no idea where to file the paperwork, but if you start asking people who are involved with Federal politics I bet you'll find out. Have you asked Glen Bradley what he had to do? Although he's a state rep, he may be able to point you in the right direction.

Think of yourself as a boat captain. You are in Spain and your job is to get to New York. You have no map, just a ship, the sun, moon, and stars. Get in your boat and go "that way"! You'll figure it out!

What about calling up Rand Paul's office and talking with one of his staffers?

OH, it's seven years a citizen of the united states, I was born here so then I'm good, I thought it meant a resident of NYC

 

[Vessol]

Go for it Alex, you're smart and well-spoken. We have to throw a moneybomb for you like we did for Glenn if you decide to run.

 

[Tom in NYC]

Hey Alex - there are plenty of folks here in NYC like myself who will help you out. I'm in Maloney's district, but we should get in touch and make this happen.

 

[One Last Battle!]

I believe in you, Alex!

you can't gather signatures until the time period is defined. there are official forms you need to use; make sure its blue or black ink, no felt tips. signatures need to be exact as on the voters list (you buy these from the county election board) .

they can also help with assembly districts. you have 40 days. get the signatures early as soon as the election is declared, as someone can only sign once and the first one is the one that counts.

think of a good party name (I would pick dog lover, with a puppy as your symbol)

I am county Chair of the LP of Queens County (LPQC), and have already PMed Alex with the following message about this. Local Queens supporters of Ron Paul are invited to come down to the county LP meeting in July (7/9), where we will be meeting with Tea Party and Queens CFL people to endorse a coalition liberty candidate to run in the special election for the seat vacated by Rep. Weiner. It's a 75% Democratic and Jewish district, so it's going to be a tough but quick campaign. If anybody has the funding and the workers to do a summer campaign for Congress, you are invited to make your case, and you may just end up getting the endorsement! PM me for details if interested.

Good luck Alex.

Merced for Congress!!!!!!!!

You'll have to become a Jew, visit Israel, attend an AIPAC conference, and apologize to the ADL for not being born a Jew before you have any chance of winning that seat.

 

[Esoteric]

Alex, you'd have to delete all the youtube videos you have where you claim you're essentially an anarchist. They will use whatever they can to paint you as an extremist.

 

[Aratus]

don't alarm him about how uphill climb it is! he won't know until he tries.
john dennis took on nancy pelosi and lost, however 'frisco
may be worse than brooklyn + queens!
