While processing my news photos of Congresswoman Laura Gillen’s swearing-in celebration yesterday, I visited Facebook during a quick break.

I was struck by how powerfully the following Facebook post, and one of its replies in particular, conveyed how it felt being at the event. (I have permission to share them here):

Seth Koslow running for Nassau County Executive

Leave a reply

From LONG ISLAND – by Ann Parry (ann-parry.com)
January 10, 2025

Democrat Seth Koslow for Nassau County Executive

Wednesday night, Legislator Seth Koslow kicked off his campaign for Nassau County Executive. Koslow, a Democrat, is challenging County Executive Bruce Blakeman, a Republican.

Westbury, New York, U.S. January 8, 2025. Nassau County Legislator SETH KOSLOW (District 5) explains why he’s running for Nassau County Executive, during his Campaign Kickoff at City Cellar. (© 2025 Ann Parry/AnnParry.com)

Why Koslow’s running for County Executive

• To make Nassau County Affordable – “Lower property taxes and implement fiscally responsible policies to ease the financial burden on families and small business.”

This could the most important priority for Nassau County residents and business owners, considering Nassau County’s high taxes and high cost of housing, as a start.

• To Eliminate Wasteful Spending – “End unnecessary lawsuits, inflated salaries, and administrative bloat to ensure your tax dollars are used effectively.”

• To Strengthen Communities – “Invest in public safety, education, infrastructure, and essential services that improve quality of life for all.”

Early last year, Blakeman proposed a controversial plan that would, he claimed, increase public safety: the creation of an armed deputy force:

Blakeman wanted to deputize armed private citizens for use, as he explained it, “for devastating emergencies” like extreme weather disasters and power outages.

In mid-April, a group of Nassau County residents submitted a petition with over 2000 signatures to the Nassau legislature. The group urged the lawmakers to seriously examine the proposal for “Blakeman’s militia,” as the residents called it.

Democrats accused Blakeman of aiming to create an illegal militia that might be used, for example, against public protests unpopular with the Republican’s agenda.

But on December 30, 2024, Blakeman swore in 26 special deputies.

The provisional special deputy sheriffs receive pay for training, plus when, if ever, they provide service.

If any, in their capacity as a special deputy, are named in a lawsuit, how might that affect Nassau County’s already high cost for attorneys, at the least?

• To Govern Transparently – “Introduce strict accountability measures to make sure every dollar is spent in the best interest of Nassau County residents.”

On December 16, 2024, Bruce Blakeman, with the support of the Republican-controlled county legislature, formally made New York Post Nassau County’s official newspaper.

Our official newspaper can get hundreds of thousands of advertising dollars for county notices that are legally required.

Until mid-December, Newsday was Nassau County’s official newspaper. Its Nassau County readership and coverage are significantly larger than New York Post’s is.

Why did Blakeman make the MAGA tabloid New York Post the official newspaper of Nassau County?

One might say the question contains the answer.

As I wrote in a recent post – Flagging Bruce Blakeman & New York Post – Newsday and many other media sources have covered Blakeman’s unpopular decision not to lower county flags for a full 30 days – like the rest of our nation is doing right now – to commemorate President Jimmy Carter.

New York Post did not cover that.

Also, Newsday and several other area media sources* (see below for examples) have reported that Legislator Seth Koslow has officially launched his campaign against Bruce Blakeman for Nassau County Executive.

New York Post has yet to cover that.

Does it sound like New York Post was handpicked by Bruce Blakeman as Nassau County’s official newspaper to provide transparent, adequate, balanced coverage of, and for, Nassau County?

Koslow’s background

Seth Koslow served as a Queens County Assistant District Attorney from 2013 until 2016, when he set up his own legal practice, SIK. He’s admitted to practice law with New York State and New Jersey Bars, plus the Federal Bar for Eastern and Southern Districts of New York.

In 2023, Koslow was elected Nassau County Legislator for the newly redrawn 5th District, which includes parts of Freeport, Bellmore, Merrick, North Bellmore and North Merrick.

Koslow’s the Ranking Member of the Public Safety Committee, and also serves on these six committees: Finance, Minority Affairs, Health & Social Services, Veterans, Government Services and Operations, and Towns, Villages & Cities.

Koslow’s an active community member. For example, in 2024 he played in a Merrick Mayhem coaches softball game and was an umpire for the Bellmore/Merrick Moms Softball Classic. His wife Jill has a bakery in North Bellmore. The Koslows live in South Merrick with their three children, Sam, Jaclyn and Julia, and their rescue dog Coco.

Nassau County Rally with Governor Hochul

From LONG ISLAND – by Ann Parry (ann-parry.com)

Labor unions rally for Hochul Delgado

• voting in NY: voteearlyny.org • find your poll site

Updated Jan. 2022: Election results added near end of post

‘When labor votes, the state wins’ – Gov. Hochul, 10/30/2022, Mineola, N.Y.

The New York governor’s race has become unexpectedly close.

Two days after early voting started in New York, and nine days before Election Day 2022, Democratic candidates and supporters – largely from labor unions – gathered for a Nassau County Rally with Governor Hochul.

Mineola, N.Y., U.S. Oct. 30, 2022. At Nassau County Rally with Gov. Hochul, young women hold a Hochul Delgado sign and wear a shirt with message “Voting is just like driving: To go backward choose ‘R.’ To go forward choose ‘D.'” (© 2022 Ann Parry/AnnParry.com)

The Sunday, October 30th event was held outdoors during a sunny autumn afternoon at the Local 338, RSDSU UFCW workers union site in Mineola, Long Island.

After many candidates, labor union leaders, and democratic leaders on stage spoke, it was time for Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado to speak and then introduce Gov. Kathy Hochul.

• VIDEO: Lt. Gov. Delgado speaks and then introduces Gov. Hochul:

During Lt. Gov. Delgado’s impassioned speech about WHY it’s so important to vote, and to vote for democratic candidates, particularly for Gov Hochul, the enthusiastic audience frequently punctuated his points by clapping and calling out “That’s right… “Say it again!”… “Preach!”….

The following transcript of Lt. Gov. Delgado’s speech is from the above video that starts shortly after he begins speaking at the podium.

Transcript of Lt. Gov. Antonio’s Speech (from video above):

[…Referring to some Republican candidates] “….only in it for the game. It’s all a joke. And they play with people’s lives. Like it’s a game. And it’s not.

“We have to step up as people and demand more. We just have to. We have to set the bar.
Integrity, decency, honesty.
Are you principled?
Do you care?
Do you know how to love people?
These things have to matter.
To our democracy to matter.
Education has to matter.
And labor has to matter.

“Any political leader worth their salt that can’t get behind collective bargaining and organized labor needs to not be in public service.
The story of upward mobility, the story, the American Dream.
This whole idea is based on working folk coming together and fighting for more.
To raise their families up across generations.
And you want to call yourself a leader, destroy that?
Come on now. Seriously.
We know we can do better. And guess what folks, we can and we will.

“I got to know Governor Hochul very well.
We talk about the stakes. A lot.
We don’t, we don’t spend time foolin’ around and being political about… oh about this, how..
What are we going to do?
What are the solutions?
How’re we going to govern, to the people?
Those were our conversations.

“She cares. She’s a worker.
From the ground up, not top down.
Not imposing her will, but engaging with the will of the people.
And she leads from the heart, from the heart.
Honest. Upfront. Accessible. Accountable.
The kind of things you want in a leader.
Not gonna lie to your face. Or fear monger. Or peddling hate.
You have that chance right now.

“So whatever people are saying out there.
All the head scratching, all the twitt-r feeds, and all the chaos and the noise.
Forget about it. Put it to the side.
The only thing we should be doing right now is action, not thinking.
Act.
Show up.
And vote and support an absolutely amazing governor who is dedicated to the people.
Who will fight for the people.
Who comes from the people.
Our governor – Kathy Hochul.”
