Many voters will come out for the presidents election and this may have an impact on results in the 99th Assembly District if the democrats come out in numbers. Many people talk of more years under Republican rule. Who knows what's best? Of course Ball still has this harassment investigation going on so it should prove to be very interesting indeed.

They questioned his Service record and can't make it stick because the U.S. Air Force says he was Honorably Discharged. They slander him as a stalker when his ex-girlfriend dismissed the charges a week later. Sen. Liebell gives Ball his home phone number and now all of a sudden it's his wife's private number and he needs to have 24 hour police protection at tax payer expense because voters are calling him? Now we have unfounded accusations of sexual harassment. Isn't it odd that someone who is accused of being such a fraud, liar, and criminal, no hard evidence is ever presented? When the shoe is on the other foot, Mayor Degnan has absolutely no problem defending individuals who are accused of a crime. In response to the 24 year old who was arrested for "allegedly" molesting an 11 year old boy in Degnan's own rental properties, Degnan himself made it clear that the key word was "allegedly" and that he would have his day in court. However in a dirty campaign Mayor Degnan and his supporters have thrown so many dirty accusations at Ball it makes you sick. I have even had some of these Ball haters e-mail me telling me they have proof of some of their accusations yet they are willingly waiting to release it. Give me a break. It's sad really. Degnan stated he was going to run a clean campaign on the issues. He has done no such thing. All he does is levy outrageous accusation after accusation at Mr. Ball hoping something, anything, sticks. Again showing proof positive that Degnan and his supporters don't understand how the law works in the United States. Makes it clear why we need signs like "Illegal is Illegal." Degnan's campaign is all heresy, unfounded accusations, and hypocrisy with little to no focus on any issue whatsoever. Interesting that Due Process no longer exists.

We've all seen the Ball signs and bumper stickers, "Illegal immigration is illegal", but maybe we haven't put much thought into what the phrase really means. The implication of this slogan is that, regardless of the complexities, nuances and costs, the underlying and most important determinant should be simply "the law is the law" and that we all have a moral and ethical duty to enforce it. It is a simple, unequivocal call to live our lives according to specific standards being made by an individual who, like so many other politicians, prefers the catchy soundbite while eschewing the rigors of living his own life according to these same higher standards. If there is to be no debate regarding the issue of illegal immigration then there is to be no debate regarding stealing an opponent's signs, harassing former girlfriends or female employees, drinking and driving, making robocalls that identify the caller as someone else, using charities to collect funds for a political campaign, illegally recording phone calls and stalking and surveilling political opponents. Ball, however, believes that the only illegal behavior that can not be excused or debated is that of everyone else. For Ball, his friends and his supporters, there is always an excuse, a rationalization or an imagined conspiracy.

Despite his unrivaled desire to take credit without justification, his contribution to Dutchess, Putnam and Westchester Counties is sorely lacking. Moreover, his contribution to the public affairs of New York State is detestably poor. He is completely marginalized and isolated as a legislator in a legislative body in dire need of getting things done for the long-term benefit of the citizens of New York State. In this, his first re-election campaign, he has proven time and again he deserves neither our party’s respect nor our voter’s support. Just when one thinks the standard of public discourse and conduct cannot go any lower, Mr. Ball lunges to further depths of impropriety.

Maybe some people are really seeing Mr. Ball for the first time in two years. To other poster, ‘some are coming around’
Your neighbor better be careful, Ball will have him or her arrested for taking down signs like they did with the NYC man story. As far as older woman, the story was she came forward after reading about the order of protection to alert people these types of accusations against Ball are for real. Maybe some people are really seeing Mr. Ball for the first time in two years.

the order of protection no longer exists…the allegations
are not proven…nor admitted..nor does the lady still
maintain they are true..so lets be fair

the older woman waited how long until she decided to
go public with an alleged sexual harassment..five
days before a primary? not credible

on the other hand the divulging by ball of the private
home number of senator vinny leibell should be
questioned and for doing that he should be made to
account..subjecting the family to a barage of calls
is tantamount to encouraging aggravated harassment
it is certainly annoying and alarming to the family
and there was no reason not to direct the callers
to leibells assembly office in the district or to
his albany office but not to his home…
makes me doubt greg’s judgement since it is his voice
on the robo call..that would be a valid criticism
but is it enough to deprive him of winning over degnan?

You tell me what lies has he perpetrated against Ball? What has Buckley lied about? All he did was expose the truth. This is the first time I've ever heard of a conspiracy to expose the truth.
