“Up until July, it was pretty dead on the Democrat and Republican side, while the non-enrolled were pretty high,” Czarny said. “So the partisan enrollment have started to pick up. And of course the Democrat enrollment has really picked up since and we’ve seen a lot of people switching parties as well.”

Help support the Onondaga County Legislature Democrats in the next phase of this fight for Fair Maps.

YToday is my 52nd birthday. We got some pretty big news this week about the gerrymandered maps of the Onondaga County Legislature having to be redrawn. It was an early birthday present for sure. When I ran for commissioner in 2012 it was a direct response to the gerrymandered maps from 2011 and the lack of resistance to them.
But that fight is not over. Though Chris Ryan and the Onondaga County Legislature Democrats scored a great victory, they still need support. If the Onondaga County Legislature as a whole does not agree to fair and open process with bi partisan maps, the Democrats have vowed to fight on. That means money for experts and possibly another court case on new maps if warranted.
I ask that you consider another donation to the legal defense fund. We have some bills left over from the last lawsuit that needs to be paid as well as future costs coming from this next fight. our opponents spent over 200k in taxpayer money this last round, they will do that again for sure.
If you would consider donating $52 in honor of my birthday to this cause it would help out a great deal. You can donate here:
