Labor steps up their effort!!! Man arrested!!

According to newsday, for the second weekend in a row, labor officials spent the day going door to door in this time in Valley Stream with one message for residents & that was to vote yes on August 1st!! Newsday reported that most people visited embraced the project, but only few were well averse on the particulars. They said they will be going out again next weekend which is the final weekend before the vote.

Additionally last night newsday reported that Thomas Calderone a 46 year old man from Levittown was taken into custody after he was caught writing no over a sign in favor of the referendum on North Broadway in Jericho. They also acknowledged that signs on Hempstead Turnpike in East Meadow and Levittown have been vandalized as well. I personally spent about an hour yesterday morning stapling up new signs over ones that had been written over. Am I the only one that thinks its sad that it was a 46 year old man doing it? Wouldn't you think that a forty six year old man would have better things to do then to walk along the side of a street and vandalize signs like a child? I guess not!
