Dear John,
Thanks to all of your hard work and suport, on Election Day, we shocked the nation and achieved what no one thought was possible: the defeat of the dangerous ballot propositions that would have destroyed honest elections in New York. The impact of our victory in stopping these measures from being enshrined in our state constitution cannot be understated. This was a hard-fought effort and we crisscrossed the state, traveling to more than 40 counties to inform voters about the importance of stopping Democrats from legalizing rigged elections here in New York. Our Republican Party successfully executed a winning state-wide campaign and it was only a practice run for next year.
This year's Red Wave helped us sweep local races up and down the ballot all over New York State. From Long Island to the Hudson Valley and from the Albany Suburbs to the Great Lakes, New Yorkers made it very clear that they reject one-Party Democrat rule and delivered massive gains for Republicans. Even in "dark blue" New York City, we gained seats on the City Council.
When I became Chairman of the NYGOP, I promised you that I would tirelessly to rebuild this Party. We have a lot to celebrate, but our work is far from done. We need to capitalize on these victories and keep the momentum going into 2022 when we need to accomplish our ultimate goal of electing a Republican governor. This is the only way we will truly change New York and put it back on a path to prosperity, public safety and freedom.
I am so energized and hopeful about the future. This proves that when we are united and organized, we can WIN. We left everything on the field in this election and now we must immediately start rebuilding our coffers for the 2022 statewide, midterm and legislative elections.
Sincerely,
|

New York Democrats were left reeling on Wednesday after startling electoral losses from the tip of Long Island to the shores of Lake Erie, as a re-energized Republican Party showed it could make deep inroads even in one of the country’s liberal strongholds.
In suburban Nassau County, where Democrats controlled every major office before Election Day, Republicans capitalized on anemic Democratic turnout to flip the county comptroller and district attorney offices for the first time in 15 years, while also defeating the incumbent county executive. In Colonie, outside Albany, they handily won the town supervisor job for the first time in nearly two decades and were on track to wrest control of the town board from Democrats.

As the Conservative Party launched its ad campaign urging voters to reject proposals 1, 3, and 4, state Republican Party Chairman Nick Langworthy traveled across the state. He went to every media market in New York and visited 40 counties in 10 days. While the trips allowed him to highlight the GOP tickets in communities across the state, it also served another purpose: To ask voters to "just say no" to the three election-related proposals. "I felt that this was our chance," Langworthy said in a phone interview Thursday. "We couldn't defeat it legislatively because they clearly had the votes. (Democrats approved the proposed amendments in two consecutive legislatures, which is why it went before voters this year.) We had to defeat it at the ballot box." Noting the "great partnership" with the Conservative Party, Langworthy said he decided to crisscross the state because he felt no one was talking about the ballot questions. He recalled conversations within the GOP over the summer that they wanted to ensure the ballot questions were "on the front page" and not overlooked. He also believed that it was necessary to counter what he considers the Democrats' attempt to "legalize rigged elections."

Republicans ended Election Day with their best showing in New York since 2016, a clear sign that the “Blue Wave” that has led to unprecedented Democratic gains throughout the state in recent years has, at the very least, lost its momentum.
There are plenty of absentee and write-in ballots left to count, and a number of races that are still undecided. But it’s clear that Democratic nominees were in trouble in mayoral elections in two of upstate’s most populous Democratic strongholds. Several Democratic-backed constitutional amendments to reshape New York’s elections were down big.
Republicans were well-positioned to flip several of the top offices on Long Island, and Democratic attempts to gain in county legislatures were poised to fall short. There might even be some GOP pick-ups on the New York City Council.

New York Republican Party Chairman Nick Langworthy didn't waste much time in pointing out where his party did well Tuesday night: It was pretty much all over in places the GOP hoped to compete. Republicans won back the Nassau County executive office and the district attorney offices in Nassau and Suffolk counties on Long Island. They made gains in Westchester County, and in other suburban bellwethers like Colonie in Albany County. And they were able to expand a small minority on the New York City Council. At the same time, a push against a trio of proposed amendments to the state's constitution Republicans argued could have helped Democrats with changes to the state's redistricting process and voting laws were rejected.

Long Island saw a Republican surge on Election Day, delivering a rare red wave in deep-blue New York. Republicans like Bruce Blakeman, the candidate for Nassau County executive, and Anne Donnelly, candidate for district attorney, are declaring victory over their Democratic challengers – Laura Curran for executive, and state Sen. Todd Kaminsky for district attorney. Donnelly, in claiming victory for Nassau DA, thanked voters for "backing the candidate who backs the blue." Donnelly would be the first Republican district attorney elected in Nassau County in two decades. Meanwhile, a Republican also won the race for district attorney in Suffolk County, defeating the Democratic incumbent. "I will fight every day to keep the citizens of Suffolk County safe," Republican Ray Tierney told News12. "I will be fair and I will reach out into the community to develop relationships so we can all have faith in the District Attorney's Office."
