Good Friday Morning,
Quick Poll Results:
In this unscientific poll with a margin of error exceeding 130%, we asked who your preference would be for County Executive. The names that appeared were either those who have been talked about or came in via your nominations and each voter saw them in a random order. Here are the results:
Jeff Green 43% Other (see below) 17% Vincent Leibell 13% Chris Leiberman 7% Dan Birmingham 7% Robert Bondi 7% Vincent Tamagna 7% Denis Sant 0% Tony Hay 0% Sheriff Donald Smith 0%
Under “Other”, each of the following received one vote: Sarah Casey (I think her mom voted for her), Pedro (who we know is Peter Hansen), Ken Harper, John Degnan and Sam Oliverio.
If the election were held today and only News That Matters readers voted, I’d be the dude on the top floor of the County Office Building for the next few years. I can see Messers. Camarda, Santucci and Lepler having a hard time swallowing that but it wouldn’t be so bad! A populist libertarian like myself is just what this county needs. More of the same old crap is what we don’t need. [...]
The quick poll we’re running on reducing municipal budgets is going well. More than 45 votes have been tallied so far but I’m not going to tell you the results just yet. Instead I’ll ask that if you have not yet participated to do so – and to ask your friends to do so as well. Tell them to click here or here. We’ll discuss the results in Monday’s column. [...]

7PM – The Truth about the Coming Climate Catastrophe and Our Last Chance to Save Humanity. Renowned climatologist Dr. James Hansen will be presenting his new book, Storms of My Grandchildren: The Truth about the Coming Climate Catastrophe and Our Last Chance to Save Humanity. Coined the father of climate science, Hansen is the director of NASA’s Goddard Institute of Space Studies. More than 30 years ago he created one of the first climate models, Model Zero, which he used to accurately predict warming scenarios in the 70s, 80s, and 90s. His Congressional testimonies propelled the issue of global climate change into the public and policy discourse. Learn more at www.caryinstitute.org. Events are free and open to the public. Location: Cary Institute’s auditorium, located at 2801 Sharon Turnpike (Rte. 44) in Millbrook, New York [...]
Before we dive into the world around us this morning and you scroll down this page to find out what’s happening in the area for the weekend, do me a favor: Pass a copy of this newsletter on to people you know who live in Putnam County and who do not receive it either by subscription or who do not read it on the website. Let’s spread the news around a bit. Then hop on over to your Facebook account and become a fan of the News That Matters page that’s recently been created there. Finally, click on the “donate” button above ~ and you know what to do after that. It is that time of year again. [...]
1. Declare a moratorium on all home evictions. Not one more family should be thrown out of their home. The banks must adjust their monthly mortgage payments to be in line with what people’s homes are now truly worth — and what they can afford. Also, it must be stated by law: If you lose your job, you cannot be tossed out of your home. [...]
Note: If you want your event posted here, please don’t send a PDF or a JPG file. It’s truly difficult to transcribe what could be sent out as a simple text message. While those posters may look nice, they take up bandwidth and clog up some people’s email boxes. So, if your stuff ain’t here, that may be the reason! Oh, and while we’re at it, if your event is in February and you send it to me now, odds are it’s going to get lost in the fray. But do try to get it over my way about a week or so in advance. [...]
