Rochester, NY (May 27, 2010) -- Attorney General Andrew Cuomo has named his running mate in his quest to become New York's gubernator: Rochester Mayor Robert Duffy. What does this mean for Cuomo's campaign? What does it mean for Rochester? And what will become of Rochester's Democrats? The Smugtown Beacon has the answers.

Politically, a good move for Cuomo

"Party in the Park: tonight starts at 5 p.m. and features Jimmy Cliff. The cost of entry is the confiscation of chairs, food, and drink (other than one purchased bottle of water or purchased food at the event) and "patrons are asked to leave their bicycles, skateboards, in-line skates and pets at home," so only car drivers are welcome."

Yesterday was deadline day for major party candidates to submit their petitions. A few are still outstanding and will be valid as long as they're postmarked by yesterday's date.

This petitioning is getting scary!

This petitioning is getting scary! Yesterday, had to flee Parsells Ave when the vibes at the bus stop became way too dangerous.

Then, on Canfield, near Gardiner Pl, first 2 contacts ripped up petiton in my face.

Second "lady" was way too drunk & crazy; wouldn't let me go after she ripped petition & broke my pen.

Tonight, Bonnie met my crazy former next door neighbor of South View Towers who I believe is a murderer.

He threw the Chinese guy off the 14th floor last year, dead.

Transit Oriented Development Doesn’t Just Happen!

Transportation networks are fundamental to how we grow, develop, and prosper. We, being here today, are the converted. We are a key demographic in driving TOD development. For about 50 years, our national, state, and local funding programs have driven decentralization of settlement patterns and, ultimately, suburban sprawl...

POLITICS: On mayoral control and party bosses

I take strong public exception to recent essays by the publisher of this newspaper, whom I esteem. Ms. Towler conveys misguided notions of "stability" that reflect a fear of the refreshing effect of, and creative solutions that emerge from, a healthy and competitive democratic process. That goes for public school governance and selection of a mayor.

Car is no longer king when it comes to policy

In a country where roads inspire songs, books and even the 1960s television series “Route 66,” the car isn’t about ready to release its grip on our lives.

But the King of the Road is losing some of its dominance with new policies — national and local — that could shift money to other modes of transportation.
