The New York Times is reporting that Pedro's forces are sending threatening letters to those who signed petitions to get Gustavo Rivera on the ballot:
In bold-face capital letters, it read "Notice of Legal Information Warning" and went on to say that the woman had been identified "as a person who has signed a legal document known as a petition."
"Receipt of this letter is NOT an indication that you have done anything wrong," the letter stated. "However, there is reason to believe that your signature has been obtained against the law." The recipient was told to call "the Ballot Integrity Unit." There was no answer at the number on Thursday afternoon.
The letter was signed by the "Concerned Citizens for Good Government," but at the bottom of the page, in small type, it read "Paid for by New Yorkers for Espada."
Pedro's internal polling must be telling him he is in deep doo-doo if he is resorting to stalinist tactics like this.
Here's a bit of news for you, Clay Davis Pedro: we live in this great country called the United States of America. This great country is a democracy, which means its citizens are free to vote for, support, and peacefully criticize any politician they damn well feel like. Especially corrupt, embarrassing, miserable rat-like wastes of flesh like yourself. You can resort to whatever Kim Jong Il-inspired tactics you like, but it won't save you from going down in defeat 5 weeks from now.
