“Candidate is off the ballot”—NYC BOE reviewed election fraud accusations and petition signature challenges
“So the motion is made and seconded? Candidate is off the ballot” is what a commissioner would say, often with little fanfare. It’s a delicate routine that most candidates running for elected office dutifully leave in the hands of election attorneys if they can afford to do so. Assemblymember Eddie Gibbs, who is running for re-election to the Assembly in the 68th District and is a district leader, has had a penchant forbecause of his lowkey rivalry with district leader Johnathan Ruiz. “We would first work together and then we actively started supporting different candidates and running against each other,” said Gibbs as he headed out to check with residents about their signatures last week.
Some candidates have the double worry of being targeted because of their race or ethnicity, especially if they’re the only person of color running for an office in a primarily white district or county. Such is the situation for Westchester County District Attorney candidate William Wagstaff III, who is running against DA candidate Susan Cacace to replace DA Miriam Rocah.
