That’s what this is all about. Hijacking the Presidential election.
Voter fraud and Democrat corruption in New York is as old as Boss Tweed and Tammany Hall.
New York nixes Democratic presidential primary due to virus
By Associated Press, 27 April 2020
Story continues below advertisementIn an unprecedented move, New York has canceled its Democratic presidential primary that was scheduled for June 23 amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The Democratic members of the State´s Board of Elections voted Monday to nix the primary. New York will still hold its congressional and state-level primaries on June 23.
Commissioner Andrew Spano said he had pondered at length, reaching a decision just Monday morning. He said he worried about potentially forcing voters and poll workers to choose between their democratic duty and their health. While there will still be other offices on the ballot, Spano reasoned it made sense to give voters an opportunity to choose in contested races but not to “have anyone on the ballot just for the purposes of issues at a convention.”
New York Democratic Party chair Jay Jacobs has said that the cancellation of the state´s presidential primary would mean a lower expected turnout and a reduced need for polling places.
“It just makes so much sense given the extraordinary nature of the challenge,” Jacobs said last week.
Both the state´s Democratic Party and Gov. Andrew Cuomo have said they didn´t ask election commissioners to make the change, which is allowed thanks to a little-known provision in the recently passed state budget that allows the New York board of elections to remove names of any candidates who have suspended or terminated their campaign from the ballot.
The decision to cancel a Democratic primary is left up to Democratic state election commissioners.
Former Democratic presidential candidate and U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders announced earlier this month that he had suspended his campaign.In a Sunday letter, a lawyer for the Sanders campaign asked the commissioners not to cancel the primary.
“Senator Sanders has collaborated with state parties, the national party and the Biden campaign, to strengthen the Democrats by aligning the party´s progressive and moderate wings. His removal from the ballot would hamper those efforts, to the detriment of the party in the general election,” the lawyer, Malcolm Seymour, wrote in a letter obtained by The Wall Street Journal.
Board Co-Chairman Douglas Kellner said the primary cancellation was a “very difficult decision,” but noted state law allows for removing candidates from the ballot when they have suspended their campaigns, as Sanders has done and, further, endorsed presumptive nominee Joe Biden.
“That has effectively ended the real contest for the presidential nomination,” Kellner said. “And what the Sanders supporters want is essentially a beauty contest that, given the situation with the public health emergency that exists now, seems to be unnecessary and, indeed, frivolous.”
New York voters can now choose to vote with an absentee ballot in the June primaries under a Cuomo executive order that adds the risk of acquiring COVID-19 as a reason to vote absentee. Cuomo also recently announced the state is sending mail-in ballots to voters.

REGIONAL RE-OPENINGS
Stay-at-home restrictions could be eased in mid-May for parts of New York state where the coronavirus outbreak is less severe, Cuomo said Monday.
Cuomo outlined re-opening parameters as hospitalization rates and deaths continue to decline from peaks earlier this month. The 337 deaths recorded statewide Sunday was the lowest daily tally this month and down from a high of 799 on April 8. More than 17,000 people have died in New York since the start of the outbreak.
Cuomo said at his daily news briefing that statewide restrictions set to expire May 15 will likely be extended in many parts of the state.
“But in some parts of the state, some regions, you could make the case that we should un-pause on May 15,” said Cuomo, who likened it to turning a valve a bit at a time.
The governor laid out a series of conditions to reopen individual regions that included decreasing hospitalization rates, robust testing and tracing, places to isolate positive cases and enough hospital capacity if cases surge again.
Preliminary results of antibody tests, which check for substances the immune system makes to fight the virus, suggest the coronavirus is far less prevalent in some upstate areas compared New York City, a pandemic hotspot.
While almost a quarter of people in New York City tested positive, the rate was below 2% in northern and central New York, according to preliminary estimates.

What will happen in November 2021? Polls closed, vote by mail only? Repub ballots disappearing?
That’s what the democratic vermin scum want. I don’t live in NY, but I will be at the polls in my state before noon. If they are not open, it is time to get ready for war.
They know they can’t keep the Coronofuss farce up- even with a thoroughly corrupt media- until December, so they are trying to make “Mail in Ballots” happen ASAP. They will still try to cheat because they have no other chance otherwise. All we have to do is pin them to fairness. THEY ARE FINISHED. Expect nasty bitterness. Expect the vilest of tactics. Expect it to get 1,000x worse ONCE WE WIN. And we will win because they are natural losers.
It’s not a given we will win…..
Yes… it most certainly is.
Dishonesty is not a winner. it never has been. Hatred is not a winner. it never has been. There are solid reasons why, historically.
Perhaps you should reconsider. Islamic conquest is hatred unto death for all those who do not bow to Allah. About 1/3 of the world has already been conquered by Islamic Jihadist hatred.
Alas, both dishonesty and hatred won in 2008 and 2012.
I disagree. The opposition failed to show up, that’s all.
Or worse, were brutally intimidated as in Philadelphia by New Black Panthers holding billy clubs outside polling precincts.
This quack has never had to worry about paying bills or keeping a roof over his head or putting food on the table. Of course he’d be this cavalier. But also, one wonders if he’s holding Trump’s oft-publicized germophobia as blackmail leverage to keep him “in line.”
They keep saying Trump will call off the election to thwart the will of the people.
And by what evidence? (This is not directed at you, but at “them.”)
Somebody told Joe, so he said it, and that is evidence enough for Democrats.
It won’t happen, but the President should say to the democrats “If you’re really that scared about voting, how about we try again in November 2024?’ Then we can vote him in for a third term, since we never voted him in for the 2nd. The democratic scum would get the squad for 2 more years, and we would still control the Senate.
