Former Governor of New York George Pataki today endorsed Buffalo builder Carl Paladino for Governor of New York.
“We do agree on three essential Republican-Conservative core beliefs: the need to cut taxes, reduce spending and shrink the size of government,” Gov. Pataki said in a statement. “It is with these bedrock beliefs in mind that today I endorse Carl Paladino for Governor.”
“I am humbled to be endorsed by the last real Governor of New York State,” Paladino said. “And I stand strong with Gov. Pataki to lead this revolution to take back our State.”
“After Gov. Pataki, we’ve had nothing but failure in the Governor’s mansion; Spitzer and Paterson made a mockery of this once great state,” Paladino said. “Now the Albany insiders want to elect another of their own, and the taxpayers won’t settle for more of the same in Andrew Cuomo.”
“The man who slayed the first Cuomo says I am the man to beat Mario Jr.,” Paladino said. “I’m proud to carry Gov. Pataki’s endorsement and our party’s standard to victory at the polls tomorrow.”
Manwhile, on the final, frenzied day of the campaigning, Carl Paladino tried to connect with voters through an emotional online video.
Paladino says his long-held desire to help people morphed into an unlikely run for governor after the death of his son, Patrick, in a car accident last year.

FYI
According to Rav Avigdor Miller, ZT”L,
“It is forbidden to vote for public officials who seek to LEGISLATE IMMORALIITY for all of us.
Cuomo is for Toeva (immorality) legislation. He has stated that it will be a priority if he wins.
PALADINO IS FIRMLY AGAINS IMMORALITY LEGISLATION.
It follows, therfore that a Torah Jew is forbidden to vote for Cuomo, and that voting for Paladino will be a Kiddush Hashem,
As Rav Moshe Feinstein, ZT”L, has written: “We must show the world that we are totally against immoral legislation.”
it sure took a long time in coming
Why would he wait until the last day? Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
Do NOT vote for Cuomo (or not vote at all) because you think Paladino is going to lose anyway.
I think a LOT of people may SAY (to pollsters) that they’re voting for Cuomo because Paladino is controversial and they don’t want to be put on the spot to defend themselves, BUT when they get in the voting booth they WILL vote for Paladino.
We must do our part, for whatever it is worth, to stop the downward spiral toward moral hefkayrus!
For what its worth – almost every person in I know is voting for Paladino – He will be within 10 points for sure –
Cuomo will win in a landslide!
With today’s internet where people have instant access to information, Paladino’s video can’t come at a better time. The night before elections is the perfect time to sway voter’s opinion. Let us people with moral and ethical values show the immoral politicians that we are not interested in their leadership. They should pack their bags and stop harassing the rest of the people who want to lead a normal and moral social life.
