Lee Zeldin Needs to GO!!!!

For NO reason at all, invited local reporters were kicked out of (R) Lee Zeldin’s (NY 1) rally in Smithtown, NY. The crowd let their disdain toward the reporters show as they left. A planned stunt. Add to that the Trump-like branding of the Democratic opponent, Perry Gershon, “Park Avenue Perry”.

Not only is Zeldin in lock step with Trump, but he is also borrowing from the same play book.
This district had a dem rep not too long ago (Tim Bishop) who was badly smeared for nothing. We really need to stop this madness.


What is happening to our countries ry?!

There was a good, positive counter rally with Zeldin's opponent, Perry Gershon. Perry's got an uphill battle- Zeldin is pretty popular in the red area of Long Island, but he's a smart guy. I kicked in some bucks to his campaign today, and set up a recurring donation. Zeldin is a Trump ball-washer, and he needs to be defeated. I'd encourage everyone here on DU to kick in a few bucks to Perry's campaign. Thanks!
