2018 Attorney General Campaign. (Re-purposed from my 2017 blog for Suffolk D.A.) A prosecutor's first task is to NOT prosecute the innocent. As a Libertarian, my priorities would be to prosecute crimes where force, threat of force, or fraud were used against persons or property. That would include such crimes by government officials. I would not enforce a law that violates the US Constitution.

Democracy Without Choices?
This Election, the Major Parties plan to give you only one choice - the incumbent - for each of the three Suffolk County Offices.
The Suffolk Libertarian Party plans to run:
Chris Garvey for District Attorney;
Audrey Capozzi for County Treasurer;
Mike Houze for Sheriff
Our opponents sued to overturn their term limits -- term limits that the voters enacted by referendum.
As in 2009, our opponents intend to be re-anointed by the major parties [Republican, Democrat, Conservative, Independence, Working Families], without any voter choice.

NY Election Law was designed, by Party Bosses, to make it easy for party bosses to throw their opponents off the ballot in NY. See Newsday's editorial on ballot unfairness, End party tyranny of New York elections:
