The choice of Buffalo’s Democratic voters is
@Indiawaltonbflo
and she is the voice of change many are calling for. The campaign for Mayor will not be easy, and in order to win on Election Day India will need all of us with her.
In a debate that at times sank under the weight of fear tactics and misinformation, Endorsed Democrat
@Indiawaltonbflo
rose to the challenge by sticking to the facts and offering a positive, unifying vision for a great American city.
Tonight, India showed why the Democratic primary voters chose her as their voice for change in 2021, and why she is their choice to build a better, brighter future for Buffalo.
Tonight in school board races across the county, voters overwhelmingly chose reason over right-wing rhetoric, and science over conspiracy theories, bigotry, and extremism.
I hear stories like 6 months ago this Town did not even have a constituted Democratic Committee yet more than 100 people came fired up last night. This is happening across WNY and it is incredible! Good going Chair John Hurley and
@OntarioCoDems
#NY27
A huge endorsement for
@Indiawaltonbflo
Senator
@chuckschumer
said "India is an inspiring community leader, mother, nurse and a lifelong Buffalonian with a clear progressive vision for her hometown."
This is only the latest sad chapter in the career of a man who has consistently used public office to enrich himself rather than to improve the lives of those he’s supposed to represent. We need
@Nate_McMurray
for
#NY27
Mayor Brown is well within his rights to pursue a write-in candidacy But the Democratic Party listens to the will of Democratic voters, and today India Walton is our candidate for mayor of the City of Buffalo.
Stefan has shown time and again that, like his hero Trump he's a con man whose only talent is for unleashing an endless string of dishonest campaign trail talking points.
@Nate_McMurray
will fight tirelessly as he did in 2018 to take back NY27 and give the people of that district something they haven't had since 2011: actual representation and leadership defined by integrity rather than self-interest and scandal.
Don't vote AGAINST
@RepChrisCollins
just because he's a Trump toady who's out on bail for insider trading & been declared a flight risk. Vote FOR
@Nate_McMurray
who will protect Social Security, Medicare & put families first! 👍
Collins arrogance was why he was thrown out of County Hall. He has refused to meet with constituents for more than a year and now is degrading students who want to hear from him. This is why we need
@Nate_McMurray
in Congress!
🚨 🚨 Voter Alert, this deceptive message has caused mass confusion and could lead to thousands of voters being stripped of the opportunity to have their voices heard. Don’t throw your vote away by listening to those telling you to skip the Dem line. 🚨 🚨
I am looking forward to supporting
@Indiawaltonbflo
and building a relationship to elect Democrats this Fall and beyond. We must respect the will of our Democratic voters!
Last Tuesday, India proved she has the message and the means to move and inspire the people of Buffalo. It was a historic moment in Western New York politics.
I want to take this moment to thank Supervisor Nate McMurray for his extraordinary campaign in the 27th District and for the many sacrifices of the past six months. Through the McMurray campaign we welcomed many new volunteers and activists into the Democratic Party.
I am asked every day- “how can we help defeat Chris Collins?” You can join the County Executive and I this Wednesday in support of
@Nate_McMurray
and help us send a message on November 6th!

Chris Collins was the FIRST Member of Congress to endorse Donald Trump. Chris Collins was the FIRST to recruit Lynne Dixon for office and that’s why she is the LAST person we need in County Hall.
#Poloncarz2019
We share a commitment to uniting the Democratic Party and winning elections not only in Buffalo, but all across Erie County with
@kevinhardwick
and
@ForBeaty
The voters heard her message and embraced her vision for the city’s future, and we look forward to working with her and her team to cross that final finish line on November 2.
Langworthy wasn’t worried about representing the people of NY-27 when he supported an indicted incumbent who was forced to plead guilty and resign. It’s time to stop playing political games at the expense of voters and taxpayers and put the true interests of this district first.
JUST IN: State Republican chair Nicholas Langworthy, along with two voters, are suing Gov. Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Board of Elections, claiming residents are being denied their right to representation
An announcement from Rep. Brian Higgins Brian Higgins has been our region’s most consequential elected official for a generation, and it is no exaggeration to say that his leadership has transformed Western New York. From the redevelopment of Buffalo’s
Not only does the BFLO News dismiss our qualified female candidates in endorsements, they allow a column today to insultingly dismiss
@Marinucci4Clerk
for “flipping pancakes” in an ad that showed a parent/professional meeting the challenges our hard-working families face daily.
Let me make something clear. If you are a Republican and running on that line, we are going to call you out. If you have not denounced your party for taking away healthcare from people with pre-existing conditions we are going to call you out.
Those accusing the County Executive of acting like a tyrant, or of enjoying the difficult decisions he has had to make over the past two years, are out-of-touch politicians fanning the flames of a small minority of citizens for their own political benefit.
Often most of the work we do at ECDC goes unnoticed and unacknowledged but I want to give a huge shout out to our staff! Over the past week they have worked overnights to get the job done. We are lucky to have them.

Our ECDC Executive Director Quinn Bushen is doing an outstanding job running our Party. We all owe her a debt of gratitude for the great work she and our staff do for Democrats across WNY! Thanks Quinn!
Congratulations
@JoeBiden
but more importantly congratulations to my pal, our
@ecdems
Secretary
@JhibitHibit
for all of her hard work leading
@WNYforBiden
in making calls to swing States and so much more during this past year!
We should be proud of the leadership we have seen since March from
@markpoloncarz
and his administration. I wouldn’t want anyone else handling the vaccine distribution.
The races in NY-14 and NY-24 are more evidence that the DCCC is clearly out of touch with rank-and-file Dems. They also meddled in NY-27 and we fought them back to support
@Nate_McMurray
, who is working hard at the grassroots level. He is going to win in November!
#NateWillWin
It is a new day in Hamburg! What a memorable moment to be with former
@ecdems
Chair Jim Sorrentino, former
@HamburgDems
Chair and ECDC Vice Chair Jim Connolly and Chair Terry Mackinnon to celebrate
@Hoak4Supervisor
and wish him well.
The Buffalo News must have missed the press release about
@votelynne
taking hundreds of thousands from disgraceful, deadbeat, downstate nursing home owners in the final days of the race to be the leader of this Community.
Incredibly proud of this team, we are building strong Dem Committees throughout the South Towns thanks to the leadership of new Chairs like Lacey Miller and Paul Weiss and activists like Jess Schuster. Town Committees that were vacant are now full and thriving!
#Victory2018
GOP county executive candidate has 'some regrets' over social media posts about conspiracy theories Chrissy Casilio “regrets” her reckless and ridiculous social media posts, and then in the next breath claims she was taken “out of context” and doubles down
The Democratic Momentum in Erie County continues: Following today’s absentee ballot count, it is clear Monica Wallace has won a third term in the NYS Assembly.
Legislator
@kevinhardwick
will be only the 3rd Democrat ever elected as Erie County Comptroller! Please be sure to join us for our Annual
@ecdems
Holiday Party honoring him and others on December 20th!
Does NY27 care what this man out on bail has to say at this point? He refuses to debate, will not hold a town hall and the only communication we get from him is when one of his minions crawls out of the bunker to lob a divisive bomb or lie
@Nate_McMurray
.
#NY27
#NateWillWin
We will be swearing in
@kevinhardwick
as he begins his term on January 1st as only the 3rd elected Democratic Comptroller in Erie County history. We will finally have a watchdog keeping an eye on our billion and a half dollar County budget.
The votes are not yet counted, we hear about “chaos” on a campaign and monday morning QB’s popping out of the woodwork. Let me tell you, we have never had a stronger slate of candidates. I am so proud of
@Nate_McMurray
and his team.
I want to congratulate my friend
@PatBBurke
and his wife Shannon on a great victory last night. Campaigning is tough but to have 2 Elections in 1 year is even tougher. They persevered and had a big win!
It was a pleasure to see my friend Governor
@KathyHochul
in person for the first time since assuming the office 2 months ago. I can’t tell you how excited I am to hit the ground running for her!
A wonderful day as we took part in the first
@wheastereggroll
since 2019. The kids had a wonderful time, and it was a genuine honor to represent
@ecdems
and WNY Democrats to uphold a tradition that began under President Hayes this week in 1878.
Time flies! On this date, 9 years ago
@ecdems
nominated a long shot candidate to take on an entrenched incumbent and the rest is history!
#Poloncarz2011
I am proud to announce that our
@ecdems
Executive Committee joined dozens of Counties across the State in unanimously endorsing Governor
@KathyHochul
this evening! Please click to sign up and help us elect her next year!
ECDC has elected Mark Poloncarz as Comptroller and Executive twice, DA Flynn, Kathy Hochul to Congress, the entire Amherst Board, Monica Wallace, Sean Ryan and a Dem Majority in the County Legislature and countless town officials WITHOUT the Conservative line.
Our County Executive
@markpoloncarz
and his team have worked tirelessly throughout this unprecedented crisis. We are proud of the leadership Mark Poloncarz has demonstrated on behalf of this community and to call him one of our own.
Proud to have recently appointed Michelle Schoeneman to the ECDC Exec Committee. She has inspired thousands across our Community and it is my hope that she will continue to help build the Democratic Party in Erie County!
Forget civility debates and fighting Trump supporters. We need to organize and go speak directly to people in our neighborhoods about the issues that are impacting us every day in order to take back this Country. That is what
@Ocasio2018
did, that is why she won.
Last night our
@ecdems
Committee substituted
@KateEskew
to run as the Democratic candidate in LD 11. I am proud to support her and excited to see the skills that she will bring to the Legislature as a retired educator and all around great person.
This is shameful, cowardly behavior by people who claim to believe in law and order, all on behalf of an incompetent President who for the past 4 years has waged war on reality and our Constitution. Inciting a mob to storm the Capitol is a direct attack on democracy.
My thoughts, prayers, and deepest sympathies are with the Barnes family this evening. This is a tragedy that touches so many in our community and our party. On behalf of
@ecdems
and my family, we send our wishes for peace at this difficult time.
More great news for Erie County Democrats! With nearly 70 percent of absentees counted in Erie County, it’s clear we can celebrate Amy Martoche’s election to state Supreme Court.
Classic Erie County GOP deflection: They cannot defend the actions of Trump and those he misled into violence with lies, so they resort to more lies and tired, debunked conspiracy theories about Antifa, BLM, and the media.
Jill O’Malley is just the right person to sit on the Tonawanda Town Board. She is a genuine person and a committed public servant who cares deeply for our Community. I look forward to helping her get elected in 2021!
@TonawandaOf
No one is tougher than our Democratic candidates. Who is afraid of a little water? Certainly not Karen McMahon or Jessica Kulpit! Our candidates have the eye of the tiger and the momentum to win on Tuesday!
Congratulations County Executive
@markpoloncarz
for being unanimously endorsed by
@ecdems
last night. Let’s continue to move our Community and the Democratic Party forward!
It is about time that Stefan admitted to being on the sidelines. Do us all a favor and get off the sidelines and go to work for the people of Erie County!
"It's time to get off the sidelines."
@StefanMychajliw
tells WBEN about his decision to enter the race for
#NY27
. "It's going to take a true conservative who can win in a blue county. I've done that".
