It's one of those Pat Kiernan "Crosstown" things.....
According to a Brannan Tweet this morning: "I lived with @RogerClark41 for the last 48 hours of my
campaign for @patkiernan 's podcast. It was fun.... In our part of Brooklyn,
Dems fight for every vote. The privilege of representing 170,000 of your
neighbors is no joke and a job worth fighting for...."
Here's how Kiernan and the NY1 folks described
their Brannan material:
"... NY1’s Roger Clark followed New York City Councilman Justin Brannan
during the final 48 hours of his reelection campaign. He
got a behind-the-scenes look at last-minute campaigning, poll site jitters, and a
victory speech that might have been given a bit too early — because a week
after Election Day, the race is still too close to call. Pat Kiernan speaks
with Roger and political director Bob Hardt about an exciting 48 hours in city
politics.... Join the conversation using #NY1Crosstown.... If
you like what you hear, share this podcast with your friends and family — it's
free for all New Yorkers and beyond. Leave us a rating and review where ever
you listen...." (See "An inside look at the final hours of a local election campaign"

Is this confidence, hubris or just plain foolhardiness?
ReplyDeleteEnjoy it folks. Its the last time anyone will see Brannen.
ReplyDeleteIf justin actually spent 48 hours in Brooklyn he might have won.
ReplyDeleteUPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "NON-FOX GOP LEADERS" EDITION
ReplyDeleteREPUBLICAN COUNTY COMMITTEE EXECS AND TOP GOP BOE APPOINTEES ARE ALMOST UNANIMOUS THAT BRANNAN WON AND BRIAN FOX LOST --- WHEN THE DEADLINE FOR RECECEIVING ANY MORE ABSENTEE BALLOTS COMES, THERE WILL BE OVER 2000 BALLOTS LEFT TO COUNT, MORE THAN THREE QUARTERS OF THEM SUBMITTED BY DEMOCRAT ENROLLED VOTERS
Even among Republicans, the only ones touting Brian Fox's chances are the ones responsible for his having lost this very winnable race.
keep dreaming gale. numbers this numbers that. justin lost fox won.
ReplyDeleteYet another loss for Liam..hey, at least he still has free room and board!!
ReplyDeleteMy wife just had a screaming argument with Brian Fox because he was blocking the street with his open car door. The entire block was honking and screaming at him and he was oblivious in his red Santa Claus vest. This cat is truly a buffoon. I hope Liam is happy with the money he made off this patsy
ReplyDeleteTheodore (Ted) Ghorra has been telling everyone Fox is going to loose. Apparently Geraldine Kassar hasn't gotten the memo. His fax machine must be out of paper.
ReplyDeletenobody voted for justin.
ReplyDeleteThe paper reflects the actual vote. Justin loses by 650.
ReplyDeleteYour maths are as bad as your knowledge of how this will be going down.
ReplyDeleteIf Fox were really going to be the winner, Liam Ambrose McCabe wouldn't be this pissed off,
How long do we think John Quaglione's twitter bio will include "former NYC Council candidate"
ReplyDeleteCan you say PATHETIC ?
Brian seems to believe the military ballots will come back from Saigon in his favor because he wears a NYPD baseball cap and supports the troops
ReplyDeleteUPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "NOW --- THIS REALLY IS BIG NEWS --- BRIAN FOX SEES DEAD PEOPLE" EDITION
ReplyDeleteBRIAN FOX MAKES CLAIM THAT HE AND/OR HIS CAMPAIGN HAS/HAVE DISCOVERED ELECTION FRAUD
EVEN THOUGH HIS STATEMENT LINKED TO A NEW YORK POST REPORT OF POSSIBLE ELECTION FRAUD >>> FOX MAKES A CLAIM THAT IT WAS HIS "DISCOVERY OF FRAUD"
AMAZING "DISCOVERY" OF TWO DEAD PEOPLE SOLICITING AND THEN RETURNING ABSENTEE BALLOTS OUT OF WELL OVER 3000 ABSENTEE BALLOTS REQUESTED --- AND ALMOST 2000 RETURNED
Here's what Fox said on LIam's FB page, "... [I]n light of our discovery of fraud, I ask [Brannan] to return from Puerto Rico and join me in looking at these ballots with a fine-toothed comb....” Strangely this Brian Fox quote didn't appear on a Fox Facebook page --- it turned up on Liam McCabe's.
Finding two possibly fraudulent absentee ballots out of more than 3200 ballots requested is a stisitically amazing accomplishment by Brian Fox --- one reelly must ask him how he did it.
No Gale its 11 out of 47 ballots that were cast by dead people.
ReplyDeleteAND THE PLOT THICKENS BY THE HOUR.
Unemployment will be the least of justin the losers problems.
absentee ballots can’t be counted until november 15th by law but Brian Fox wants Brannan to come home and help him move out of his apartment
ReplyDeletejustin told his bros to just say they were interns when they filed the dead ballots.
ReplyDeleteit aint just Liam putting together justins ballot stuffing scheme. justin said a bit much in PR.
ReplyDeleteThe press is on this & the plot thickens.
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "MAN THAT MADE NO SENSE BEFORE THE ELECTION MAKES EVEN LESS SENSE AFTER THE ELECTION" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO ANYBODY THAT LISTENS TO THAT MAN --- AND THEN THINKS THAT IT ALL MAKES SENSE TO THEM.....
ONE SUSPECTS THAT SOMETHING LIKE A MASS HALLUCINATION SPARKED BY ERGOT TAINTED GRAIN MIGHT BE INVOLVED --- MAYBE IT'S SOMETHING IN THE WATER
LIAM MC CABE SAYS THAT HE IS PISSED OFF >>> AND BRIAN FOX AND EVERYBODY ELSE SUPPORTING FOX GO CRAZY AND SAY ALL KINDS OF CRAZY THINGS
Here's the deal --- the incomplete count stands with Fox ahead by 255 votes..... When the vote count resumes, there will be about another two thousand ballots to count, with a large majority of them being from Democrat-enrolled voters.
There have been some irregulrities thus far; and there still might be more..... The BOE will complete its count, evaluate the irregularities, issue its report and certify the election reults --- with either Fox winning, Brannan winning, or a dead even flatfooted tie. Thereafter, either one or both candidates can bring everthing that they thinks proves that they are the righful winner into court.
Hopefully, this is decided by the one holiday event that matters in this case --- New Year's Day. And let's pray that Liam doesn't stay pissed-off that whole time, because that makes everybody around him act as crazy as he is. Imagine having to live with all that until New Year's Day.....
No the issue is not "some irregularities". It's the ballots being cast last year and this year by the same dead people.
ReplyDeleteNews is reporting that the 2 dead people voted for Brian Fox. Now that is embarassing!
ReplyDeleteThere will be a lot more than the usual drinking by Liam this holiday season
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "MOST OF THESE COMMENTS ARE SILLY --- BUT SOME OF THEM ARE VERY INTERESTING SILLY" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 12:09 PM" & "... AT 12:11 PM"
IF THIS STUFF IS TRUE >>> THEN IT'S A VERY, VERY SILLY TRUTH INDEED
LET'S BE PRACTICAL ABOUT THIS DEMOCRATS' ELECTION FRAUDS THING --- IF THAT'S WHAT THEY NEED TO DO TO DEFEAT BRIAN FOX --- THEN WE'RE ALL-IN FOR IT.....
AS FAR AS WE'RE CONCERNED IT'S A WIN-WIN FOR THE BROOKLYN GOP --- FIRST, WE DODGE THE BULLET OF BRIAN FOX ACTUALLY BECOMING AN ELECTED PUBLIC OFFICIAL ON THE GOP LINE --- SECOND, IT WILL BE ANOTHER LOSS FOR LIAM MC CABE AND THE BENDER THAT GOES ALONG WITH THAT --- AND THIRD, AS GOOD AND MORAL GOP ACTIVISTS, WE CAN BE ALL SELF-RIGHTEOUS ABOUT WHAT CHEATS THE DEMOCRATS ARE.....
Just imagine the bathic levels of self-loathing and disgust with themselves certain Brooklyn GOPers would have to endure if Brian Fox actually were to become a GOP member of the NY City Council.....
The Brannan folks can cheat all they want if that's what's necessary --- the Brooklyn GOP-types at the BOE really aren't lookin' very hard at what's going down during the lunch, coffee and overnight breaks.
I heard Liam and Fox had a big falling out because Liam demanded a "win bonus"
ReplyDeleteLets Go Brannen !!!
ReplyDeletecan justin re-open his district office now that he cant be speaker?
