The Reform Party of the United States, its State affiliate, the Reform Party of New York State and its recognized local organization, the Reform Party of Nassau County, herewith offer their unencumbered support and endorsements for the City of Long Beach, New York’s, City Council election this November 5, 2019.
When considering this election, the Reform Party decided that in order to best fight the: corruption; tremendous financial mismanagement; huge debt (in excess of the entire City budget of $100million) associated with two lawsuits that the taxpayers are responsible for; the crumbling infrastructure; the unbalanced budgets hidden behind fakery; the probable huge increase in taxes; and the treatment of the Taxpayers as a piggybank for certain officials; that the Reform Party would seek to endorse one slate of candidates to – hopefully!- act as a concerted group to turn around Long Beach before it is too late.
Therefore, after much consideration, the Reform Party herewith wholeheartedly endorses the following candidates for election for Long Beach City Council:
Karen McInnis: Karen is a financial analyst executive: Her depth, background and experience with tough financial situations are desperately needed by the People of Long Beach RIGHT NOW. Karen’s commitment to find, employ and utilize the honest and correct financial direction for LB is urgently needed RIGHT NOW!
Liz Treston: Liz is recognized as one of Long Beach’s outstanding, tireless community activists. The Long Beach Herald named her Person-of-the-Year for her dedication to improving LB for all of the People, and her knowledge of the City and understanding of the citizens and taxpayers is without peer.
Ron Paganini: Ron dedicated his life to serving others, including all of LB’s taxpayers as a corruption fighting municipal employee and union leader and knows how to uncover and bring to light, the mismanagement and exploitation of the taxpayers that certain LB leaders have tried to hide from the People.
Make no mistake: This team of dedicated Long Beach citizens, running on the Democratic Party line, are NOT the old, corrupt Dems. This group defeated that old group that has run LB into the ground. They are the ‘New Wave’ Democrats and Long Beach needs this new, fresh, experienced, dedicated group to turn LB around before it is too late. Please vote for these New Wave Democrats this coming November 5!
