Maziarz called corrupt by candidates for his seat
“Sen. Maziarz has failed to do anything to cut the size of government, reduce taxes, reduce utility rates or eliminate the commuter taxes his constituents have to pay daily traveling across the Grand Island bridges,” Tea Party spokesman Rus Thompson said. “Sen. Maziarz has failed miserably to represent the people of Western New York but has succeeded in building a corrupt power base here in his district.”The race for 62nd District state senator is coming to an early boil six weeks before the primary, with Tea Party Republicans and Democratic candidate Amy H. Witryol both charging incumbent Sen. George D. Maziarz with “corruption.”
The Tea Party forces have endorsed Johnny G. Destino, Maziarz’s opponent in the Sept. 13 GOP primary.
Meanwhile, Witryol charged Maziarz with allegedly mailing campaign literature at taxpayers expense.
She has a lawsuit due to be heard Tuesday on Maziarz’s purported attempts to manipulate the Working Families Party primary through a stalking horse candidate, and now she has charged Maziarz with similar tactics in the Green Party.
Destino said he thinks the Tea Party endorsement will help his uphill bid to unseat Maziarz, a nine-term incumbent.
