Zebrowski & Carlucci’s Weekend Hours a Success!


Assemblyman Kenneth Zebrowski & Clarkstown Town Clerk David Carlucci teamed up to offer weekend hours, in the form of a mobile office on Sunday, January 27th, at the Shoprite of New City. Forms and applications were distributed, and free Notary Services, dog licenses and handicapped parking tags were issued. Assemblyman Kenneth Zebrowski met with many residents, answered questions and listened to concerns. Carlucci stated, “By providing a mobile office, residents were able to accomplish three tasks at once. They did business with the Clerk’s Office while taking advantage of the great services Assemblyman Zebrowski provides, all while doing their grocery shopping!” Zebrowski added, “I think David Carlucci is doing a great service by going out to convenient locations at off hours. It was great to see residents who might otherwise not have time to share their opinions with me.”

Remember to Vote February 5th!


For the first time since 1952, neither a sitting president, nor vice president, is seeking the nomination of their party to run for president. This makes the primary process wide open for many candidates, making our vote extremely important! This year, the Presidential Primary is very exciting for New Yorkers. For the first time, the primary has been moved up to February 5th, the earliest it has ever been. Previously, the primary has been held in March, and as we all know, by that time the winner is pretty much all but wrapped up! This Year, on February 5th, we will go to the polls and vote simultaneously with 23 other states.
The purpose of the Presidential Primary is to elect delegates to go to the parties’ national conventions this summer to decide who will carry the banner for their party. In NY, the Republican and Democratic primaries are a little different. For the Democratic Primary, each of the 29 Congressional Districts in NY are like individual primary races. In each Congressional District, a presidential hopeful can get as many as 6 delegates. Therefore, multiple candidates can pick up any number of delegates. Whereas in the Republican Primary, it is winner take all for the whole state!
Both primaries are promising to be very exciting, as NY has one of the greatest number of delegates of any state in the nation. Whether you are a registered Democrat or Republican, go out and make your voice heard, by voting in this very important primary! If you are not registered to vote, it’s not too late! You can register right on my BLOG. Go to www.davidcarlucci.blogspot.com and register today! If you are registered to vote, but will be out of town on February 5th, you can still vote absentee. All you have to do is fill out an absentee application, which I have made easy to obtain by texting the word ABSENTEE to 41411. You will receive a link to download an absentee application right on your cell phone!
Voting is not just a right, but a privilege. Take full advantage of one of the rights Americans have fought for, when the polls open on February 5th. If you do not make your own choices by casting your ballot, then you are allowing someone else to choose for you. Besides, you never know if your vote could be the deciding factor in who becomes the next president of the United States!
