Show Notes

Republican Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman faces a significant setback in his New York governor run, as the Public Campaign Finance Board blocks him from up to seven million dollars in public matching funds due to not listing his running mate on the application. The boards decision, along party lines, affects Blakeman and five other minor-party candidates. Blakemans team cries foul, accusing the board of corrupt politics, while the board maintains that rules and laws must be followed. The race tightens, with Hochuls lead shrinking from twenty points to thirteen. Blakemans camp plans to fight this legally, as the funding drama could reshape the challengers standing against the incumbent machine.
