Postcard Party for Congressman Tom Suozzi at Nassau Women’s Democratic Caucus meeting

When you’re actively involved in elections – regardless of the political party you may support, and whether you’re a candidate, volunteer… or photographer covering them – you know activities gear up as primaries approach.

The Nassau Women’s Democratic Caucus recently reached another milestone on its long journey to New York Election Day 2026 by having its first Postcard Party.

On May 27, all tables in Nassau County HQ meeting room were filled with volunteers addressing and personalizing postcards urging Democratic Primary voters to re-elect Rep. TOM SUOZZI of Congressional District 3.

ADRIENNE ADAMS, the Democratic candidate for New York lieutenant governor, was the special guest at the Nassau Women’s Democratic Caucus April meeting.

Running mates Governor Kathy Hochul and Adrienne Adams, the former Speaker of the NYC Council, form the historic first all-female gubernatorial ticket for a major party in New York.

Enthusiastic NWDC members, civic leaders, and candidates running in local races in Nassau County frequently applauded during Adams’ spirited speech. Candidates included:

Adams stressed how she and Governor Hochul are the strongest candidates for affordability, safety, and more in New York.

Then she encouraged everyone to pitch in to help get out the vote for New York State’s Democratic ‘Governor – Lieutenant Governor’ ticket: Kathy Hochul – Adrienne Adams.

And, at the end of the meeting, many did indeed add their names to the volunteer ‘GET OUT THE VOTE’ sign-up sheets they passed in front of on their way out.

No Community Left Behind

JOE SCIANABLO, the Democratic candidate for Hempstead Town Supervisor, recently spoke at a Bellmore Merrick Democratic Club meeting.

As Scianablo walked back and forth across the front of the room (or danced, as he jokingly put it), he talked animatedly about things that mattered to a tuned-in, appreciative audience:

Joe Scianablo’s slogan, No Community Left Behind, isn’t just a catchy phrase – it’s reflected throughout his campaign.

And he doesn’t deal merely in generalities. Here are excerpts from Scianablo’s targeted plan of action and solutions in his platform page:

A Plan of Action

First Steps

- Full financial and operational audit of all departments and contracts
- Implement Participatory Budgeting so projects are decided on by Regional Community Councils
- Implement efficient pothole repair and snow removal procedures
- Ensure full transparency in all promotions and compensation decisions
- Cut the mail budget by thousands of dollars by creating an opportunity for residents to opt out

Common-Sense Solutions That Work

• Audit for responsible budgeting

• Government Partnerships

Apply for grant opportunities and partnerships across government, regardless of party affiliation

• Community Smart Projects

Development should bring together unions, the community, and responsible developers to deliver projects that actually work for the Town of Hempstead.

• No more nepotism and conflict of interests.

ON THE GO WITH JOE

When an audience member asked Scianablo how to find his podcast, On the Go with Joe, lots of others called out that they were interested in it too.

All that enthusiasm about the podcast motivated me to check it out after the meeting.

For each episode, On the Go with Joe serves up useful info in an engaging way. In fact, sometimes I had it playing while I worked on this post.

• “On the Go with Joe” is on several platforms: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Amazon Music.
