Make sure you get out and vote, if you haven't already! I was #109 at my polling location, at about 7:45p. Seems extremely low turn out in my opinion....

Polls are open until 9p!

🗳☑️🇺🇲🦅

They censured me; twice. So they could censor you....

It's not me they're after, it's you. And I stand in their way.

PUBLIC SERVICE > politics.

"I told ya so's" don't feel so good these days. Hoping for some major changes next election cycle😬

Tompkins County voted to end its relationship with Flock Safety at a special meeting last week.

The county had contracted with the company for static automatic license plate readers and gunshot detection technology used by the sheriff's department.

Some Tompkins County activists and lawmakers have raised concerns about the significant amount of data collected by the cameras, and the potential for its misuse. Local law enforcement have defended the cameras as a tool to reduce gun violence.

The city of Ithaca ended its relationship with Flock after public outcry in early March.

Tompkins County’s decision to cut ties with Flock comes after months of debate and a previous failed attempt to kill the contract by rejecting the state funding that paid for the cameras.

Local law enforcement are reapplying for that grant, but will use the funding for “alternative policing methods” that are consistent with the funding’s parameters, according to County Attorney Maury Josephson.
