Harumph. That man Golisano stirs up all this trouble in the NY State Senate, and he is not only a resident of Florida, but trying to stir things up in Florida by running for office there. Harumph.
Tom Golisano ran for Governor on the “Independence Party” line in New York. As many of you know, in New York, “Independence” is a party, whose Chair is Frank MacKay of Suffolk County. If you want to be truly “independent” in New York, you have to register “blank” (ie: “I do not wish to enroll in a party”), like me.

FLORIDA. Sources tell Politics1 that billionaire businessman Tom Golisano — a former three-time Independent candidate for New York Governor — is now contemplating a Democratic run for Florida’s open US Senate seat. Golisano, who owns homes in both New York and Florida, recently switched his residency to the Sunshine State. The New York Times also reported Golisano was the driving influence beyond the recent New York Senate leadership coup which three the body into turmoil. Governor Charlie Crist (R) contacted Golisano last week to seek his financial support for Crist’s Senate campaign, but was politely rebuffed.
