A Community Reacts

Altered Image
As submitted to Elmont Herald by Ciotti's office

What I see here is a blatent disregard for decency.  It appears to be a politician running scared who will stoop to any level to eliminate his opponent even to digitally removing him from a picture.  This must be exposed especially when Ciotti claims that he is "for our community." Is the deceit on the part of the newspaper or on Ciotti's staff or both?

Sure.....a drop of magic eraser accidentally fell on one spot, and magically eradicated just one person and the matching name......sure, it could happen.........

The thing that is disturbing was this photography was taken by a county photographer and was therefore paid for with tax dollars. Ciotti has no ri[ght] politicking and campaigning against an opponent with tax dollars.

In my honnest down to earth impression, this is definetely DELIBERATLEY DONE.

I received both photos myself. One where Ali is in the photo, and one that has him missing. The one where he was missing was received from John Ciotti's office. I don't remember who sent the good one. It may have been the school district. I think I saved the edited photo here somewhere.

How can this be called inadvertent or innocent? Clearly, Ali Mirza was removed from the photo, and the picture was "whitewashed." The paper claims that this was a picture submitted by legislator John Ciotti. The original should be sent to the paper with a request for a correction and reprint.

Removing signs, altering pictures will not win elections. Acting like a thug or a sneak at night robbing Democratic signs only shows the voting public that you have no new ideas or solutions and it's time to go. I would expect this kind of action from a child not a legislator seeking a 5th term.
Patrick Nicolosi

By all means, expose the deliberate deception that has been foisted on the community. Elmont Online does not have to endorse a candidate. The indignent public will know what to do in the voting booth.

The Art of Listening

Senator MartinsLike many of you, I’m up early, reading the news and making breakfast before the rest of the family wakes up. Later, I manage to grab a few minutes to get ready between my wife and four children before embarking on daddy’s a.m. taxi service. This day, I’m a little late to an 8 a.m. meeting with union officials to discuss issues impacting them, but I’m sure I’ll make up the time somewhere in the day’s schedule.  By 9:30 a.m., I’m at a grammar school in another part of the district explaining how a bill becomes law to 200 fourth graders. They prove remarkably well-informed and pursue an analysis as to what recent legislation is likely to work and what they believe will not. I take mental notes.
