Despite winning a razor-thin victory over a very effective incumbent, Laura Curran, Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman continues to approach his duties as if he had a mandate to ignore the majority of the electorate, which happens to be Democrats.

I am so disappointed by the comparatively low turnout by Dems in that election, which resulted in this unfortunate result, one that I hope will be corrected in the next election.

Meanwhile, we will have to endure his non-governance and silence in the wake of anti- democratic and antisemitic extremism, continued threat of Covid, and hostility to those who don’t agree with his MAGA point of view.
