33rd State Senate Update Tuesday Aug 3

   At the Board of elections today the challenge of the name J. Gustavo Rivera was dismissed by the board commissioners after the lawyer for 33rd candidate J. Gustavo Rivera produced a June 2nd time stamped  copy of the voter registration form dated July 21st with J. Gustavo Rivera as the name of the voter. This ran contrarily to the challenge of the voter registration form copy that the challenger had dated June 26th. However that still leaves the question to us as why did our copy of the voter registration form dated August 2nd from the Bronx Board of Elections have Jose G. Rivera as the voter? We don't know how that is, but Mr. Rivera submitted his revised voter registration form to the board of elections at 32 Broadway as there was a copy of a receipt for one returned registration form dated June 2, 2010 to Mr. J. Gustavo Rivera stating that the registration form will be clocked and forwarded to the borough offices for processing, and signed by a representative from the Voter Registration Department. I might add that was given to me by Mr. Rivera's lawyer after the hearing.

   We think that the public should have the answer to why the Bronx Board of Elections computer  says one thing, and the NYC Board of Elections computer says a different thing on the same matter, especially when both boroughs computers are on the same program.
