Development in and Around Syracuse Discussion

[rrlbees]

I get up early for work and the local polling place is just down the road so I usually vote on Election day between 6 - 6:30 AM, and I'll likely do the same this year. I was near Clay Saturday afternoon. I took a peak at the line, and said forget that.

Sunday was worse than Saturday

Went to our polling place.. first the machine was down,, then they got it started and the printers were out of ink and they couldnt locate any extra cartridges..

Still the 20 people in line were patient and 30 min flew bye.. the advantage of living in the boonies.

It's nicer now, but I liked it when it was an unpretentious blue collar neighborhood bar that would get unbelievably packed on St Patrick's Day. Had to sneak in through the men's room window to get into the place.

Not Syracuse, but Syracuse-related. Really cool project just announced out here in Buffalo. Matt Fleckenstein, who is spearheading the project, is a Newhouse alum.

Glad to see stabilization work has begun on the old Moyer Carriage building. Don't think there was too much time left before that entire wall was going to crumble to the ground.

I meant to send you a shot of this the other day, I know you've been curious.

Great to see the building stabilized. There was no sand left in the hourglass for this one.

Yeah I know they announced renovation plans but I was wondering when that wall was going to be secured, because it definitely seemed like time was running out on that.

I really hope Mannion is able to beat her with the absentee ballots

Onondaga County absentee ballot counting slowed down by objections

The counting of absentee ballots continues in Onondaga County and final results from the local elections have yet to be completed. Tables with bi-partisan teams, lawyers, and campaign members watch as the absentee ballots are counted. The Onondaga County Board of Elections spent the last few...

"On Thursday, they began counting ballots for Senate District 50 between Republican Angi Renna and Democrat John Mannion.

Dustin Czarny, the Onondaga County BOE Democratic Commissioner, says, “To put in context, we have already surpassed all of the objections that we had in Senate District 53, which is 20,000 ballots, in the first two hours Thursday.”

There are significantly more objections for the ballots in Senate District 50.

Czarny says a large majority of the objections are from Renna’s campaign.

“These objections do not mean that the vote doesn’t count,” said Czarny. “It means that we have to hold aside the vote until the end of the counting and they have three days to go in front of a judge.”

Most of the objections are about the signatures on the ballots and the votes that were received in the ballot boxes on election day.

“If we are talking about thousands of ballots over the next four days then it’s going to delay the certification of this race,” said Czarny. “This is not just about Senate District 50 it’s about the family court race, the presidential race, congressional races, all of these races are on these ballots.”

And Joanie Mahoney has resurfaced ...

Anybody know what the story is with this? I mean, it was obvious that her strange move to step down from the county and become ESF's COO was part of a strategy, but college president? What does she know about academia? Is she as unqualified for this job as some of her appointments were for the county?

Folks I knew at ASU had told me that Quentin Wheeler was going to be a disaster; this seems like a curious replacement after that dumpster fire, to say the least. I get the feeling she's trying to lay low on the political scene while still staying in the game.

She should have flipped parties and run against Catko.

Convert the buildings into marijuana growing facilities to go along with a state-sponsored legalization pilot program.

Convert the buildings into marijuana growing facilities to go along with a state-sponsored legalization pilot program.

I think there are far better sites for an operation like that.

I think there are far better sites for an operation like that.

Definitely, I just like the idea of Republican McMahon trying to sell that idea to his supporters and party. Also hoping the state moves forward on legislation in the near future.
