Cuomo Primary Challenger Predicts She'll Have 3X the Required Petition Signatures

KAREN DEWITT

The Democratic Primary challenger to Governor Andrew Cuomo , Zephyr Teachout, expects to file more than 40,000 signatures late Thursday to obtain a place on the ballot for the September voting.

Teachout, a Fordham Law School professor , says she’ll file her petitions in the final hours before the deadline, at around 9 o’clock Thursday evening.

“We have over 40,000 signatures of registered Democrats, and we expect to have 45,000 signatures,” Teachout said.

Prediction: A big Teachout vote will set the stage for a major Green Party defection in NOV.

That could be a good thing. There's going to have to be some kind of realignment. The NYS DEM party cannot just keep offering up plate-loads of warmed-over shit.

(Sorry for the vulgarity... but can you think of a better description?)
