  Speaker 1: Now you know we got the worst governor ever. Kathy
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Hockle is just an absolute disaster. NASA County has the
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: best county executive in the America and that job is
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: basically being a governor, so he would be the greatest governor.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Bruce Blakeman is running against Kathy Hockel and we hope
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: he wins. You can help, donate or whatever you want
• 0:20

  Speaker 1: Bruce Blakeman, how you doing.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: Doing good? Mark? Thank you for having me on again
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: and thank you for your friendship.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: Well, let's hope you. Hey, I notice you've been very
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: busy lately. Every time we call you on a plane,
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: you're on that till. You've really been working hard on
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: this campaign, haven't you.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: We have, and it's really really working out great. We're
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: gonna win, Mark. Every place I go in this state,
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: people are miserable under Kathy Hockl. They know that we
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: are the most overtaxed state in America, that are electric
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: bills are seventy percent higher than the national average, that
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: she's the most pro criminal govern her in the whole
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: United States of America and that now she is Comrade
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Kathy completely aligned with Mandami. The Kami Again, people are
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: miserable here in New York. They want a governor that'll
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: make them happy. Mike County people are happy, they're making money,
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: they're not paying high taxes. They have the safest county
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: in America according to US LUIS. And we're a report
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: So we just want to apply those principles to the state.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Put New Yorkers first, stop spending money on illegal migrants
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: who just got here. Let's spend it on New Yorkers.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: So that's what they want, and that's what I will
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: provide when I become governor.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: It doesn't help realize she's been governed for many years
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: now that if she had had any success, she would
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: have a huge following, a huge base, and macdonnie would
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: be catering to her. When is it supposed to work
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: that way?
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: You would think so. But again, Kathy's record is a
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: straight up so if you look at a report card,
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: it's straight fs. When it comes to taxation, I'm going
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: to cut taxes. I want to have the biggest middle
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: class tax cut in the history of the state. Any
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: individual making fifty thousand dollars or less, you don't have
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: to pay state income tax. If you're a joint filer
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: one hundred thousand, you don't have to pay state income tax.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: For those who make more your first fifty thousand dollars,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: no taxes. Because it's the middle class that drive the
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: economy here in New York State, and they've been taking
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: it in the neck for far too long with Kathy
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Hokeel with the high taxes and high electric rates.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, par the reason we have such a ridiculous, out
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: of control spending. We overpay by like ten thousand percent
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: for everything, whether it's pave in the road or subway stuff.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: We just overpay like crazy. And that's the business model
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: of these politicians, hand out these massive contracts in exchange
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: for whatever. What can you do about that.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Well, we're gonna cut out all the fraud, waste and abuse. Mark.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: There has to be tremendous fraud and waste. When you
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: think about the fact that our state budget is twice
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: the amount of the state of Florida and they have
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: four million more people than us. Wow, it's just wrong.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: We don't have a revenue problem in the state. We
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: have a spending problem. Kathy Hochel has spent money on
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: illegal migrants eight billion dollars over the last three years,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: eight billion dollars. She's given another five billion dollars to
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Zoe round Mondamie to bail out New York City. And
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: New York City has no strings attached, so they're continuing
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: to spend money on programs that don't exist, programs that
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: have fraud, programs that have waste and abuse. That ends
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: on day one when I become governor. I'm gonna cut
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: our spending. We're gonna give the money back to the EPO.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: We're going to cut our utility rates in half by
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: getting rid of the green energy scam and the taxes
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: on your bill and the excessive delivery charges. Kathy Hochel
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: has approved forty five rate hikes in just four years.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: And no wonder why we're paying so much in electric bills.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Hey, but the other reason is Governor Calmall also a
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: disaster closed Indian Point that was twenty five percent of
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: our electricity. And shouldn't we be fracking. Don't we have
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: a ton of energy right under.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Us mark We have one of the largest natural gas
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: reserves in the world here in New York. We don't
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: extract it because Kathy Hochel doesn't get campaign contributions from
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: people that lived there on the southern tier in New York.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: On the other side of the border, in Pennsylvania, they
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: do extract. They're driving brand new Cadillac Escalades. On the
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: New York side of the border, it's twenty five year old,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: rusted out pickup trucks. We could create jobs, we could
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: create economic prosperity, and we could make really lower the
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: cost of electric bills in our state with this big
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: supply of natural gas, which is clean energy. And the
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: worst part of it, Mark is in Pennsylvania where they
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: are allowed to extract that natural gas. We're buying it
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: from them, So it's totally hypocritical. It's not like we're
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: saying no natural gas. We're buying it from Pennsylvania, hurting
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: our own people, hurting all the people who are ratepayers
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: in the state of New York, making Pennsylvania fat. And
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: it makes no sense whatsoever. So yes, I will extract
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: that natural gas. It will lower the cost by increasing
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: the supply, we will have a reliable source of energy
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: that is right here in New York State.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Wow, it makes so much sense, and people say, wow,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: it's tough for a Republican to get elected the demographics
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: or how do you answer.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: That, Well, I got re elected in a landslide in
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: the county with one hundred and ten thousand more Democrats.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: So when you provide quality services at a cost offision price,
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: you don't raise taxes. You create better jobs with better benefits,
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: you create economic activity. And when you support law and
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: order in your communities and support the blue my county
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: is the safest county in America according to the US
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: News and World Report. Because we take that seriously, that's
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: what everybody wants. I don't care what you're Republican, Democrat,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: or independent. Everybody wants the same thing. So I'm asking
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: everybody to go to Blakemanfromnewyork dot com. Let's save this state.

• 7:21
  Speaker 1: situation in your whole life, haven't you.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what. It's a negotiation process. The governor
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: of the state of New York has tremendous power and
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: leverage over the legislature. I will use that power and
