16h agoAndre Rainey has been taken off the
ballot for the New York State Assembly.
According to Rainey, County Legislator
Colin Smith challenged the signatures on his petition. The Board of Elections
found some of the signatures were not valid for various reasons.
They disqualified 75 because they
signed for more than one candidate. Another 180 were disqualified for writing in
their address as a municipality instead of a town or city close to them.
Rainey says he was not aware of what happened.
He is still encouraging everyone to vote.
