Today I took my good friend Ann Cianfrocco who’s been fighting courageous battle against cancer, to meet with 118th Assemblyman fRobert Smullen who is running for Congress in NY-21 for a little one on one conversation! Ann currently serves as
a member of the Rome Republican Committee If you know Ann she wanted to ask questions directly to Bob, we both learned a few things about statements being made by his opponent Anthony Constantino were false! Mr. Smullen doesn’t own a taxpayer funded Solar Farm he has leased the land out long before he became an Assemblyman he has nothing to do with the Solar Panels and receives nothing other than income from the lease! In fact if you check his Assembly record he has repeatedly voted against ORES the partially state owned organization responsible for pushing the governor’s green energy initiatives! We learned a whole lot about Bob that convinced us further that he is the right person to represent the people of NY-21!

According to Robert Smullen he doesn’t own a Solar Farm! He has leased that land out since before he became an Assemblyman !

If you’re giving money to a disabled veteran, do it because you truly care not because you’re looking for recognition!

It appears the “good olde boys” are at it again! Unhappy with the choices made by the Town of Lee Republican Committee in particular the decision to support our former New York State Assemblyman who currently represents the 118th Assembly District retired 24 year Marine Corps Colonel Robert Smullen. This was an unanimous decision of all 10 committee members representing all 5 districts in the Town of Lee. It is our position to stand by our endorsed candidates! If there is a primary and the endorse candidate  loses. It is customary to then stand behind the winner of the primary. in another note the “good olde boys” would rather advocate for a “go along to get along” mentality, that is not what a open and transparent government should be about. No they feel it should their way or the highway but we say it should be the right way or no way! Past committee member Jennifer McCullough currently serves as a member of the Town Board has repeatedly stood her ground advocating for Transparency and Accountability as has current committee member Christine Pfeiffer our Town Clerk! No the “good olde boys” don’t like to be challenged,like a year ago, March when a resident asked at Town board meeting why a Town board member Jamo Jones was presiding over the meeting and not the Town Supervisor. His reply was because “he asked me to” a resident then stated that was against Town law, that the Deputy Supervisor should be presiding over the meeting if the supervisor wasn’t able. The Deputy Supervisor then stood up and said “well I give him permission” that is when Town of Lee Republican Chairman Doug Singleton indicated to the Deputy Supervisor that they had no authority to do so. The Town‘s attorney agreed and subsequently all future meetings were provided over by the Deputy Supervisor. The fact that the meetings were not being run according to Town Law could’ve created a huge liability for the Town! Another example was in which our Town Clerk Christine Pfeiffer asked where the records were stored, the reply she was given by Jamo Jones was that the records were stored in the basement of the former Town Supervisor and Deputy Supervisors home basement. The Town Clerk, who by Law is the person responsible for maintaining the Town‘s records wanted them returned. Jamo Jones could not understand why keeping the records in someone’s personal basement was a problem stating that for 51 years it had never been a problem,again that didn’t make it right and according to the law. Town board member Jennifer McCullough  demanded the records, be returned subsequently most, if not all have been brought to be stored at the Townhall. Two years ago Jamo Jones then a Town Board member proposed legislation for a referendum to make the Town Clerk at the time Laura Kinney an appointed position rather than elected, so in his own words, “they could have more control over the position”. The Town clerks office is set up to be independent from the Town Board, that’s why it’s an elected position but the “good old boys” were looking more for someone to go along to get along But Town of Lee Republican Committee Chairman Doug Singleton went to work raising public awareness and needless to say opposition to this was overwhelming, and the legislation was withdrawn! We could go on and on but the point is the “good olde boys “don’t like to be challenged! The Town of Lee Republican Committee is committed to finding and endorsing candidates that believe in a open and transparent form of government which are to be held accountable for their actions !

Dear Fellow Republicans,

Over the past two years, we have witnessed something truly remarkable in the Town of Lee. For the first time in many years, a group of dedicated, like-minded Republicans came together with a shared vision—to strengthen our party, give residents a real voice, and move our town forward.
Together, we successfully filled all 10 committee seats across Lee’s five districts, something that had not been accomplished in a very long time.

Following that achievement, we reorganized and elected a new Chairman, Doug Singleton, who committed himself to ensuring that the voices of our residents would be heard. Under his leadership, we began identifying and supporting candidates who were not part of the long-standing “good old boys” network that has controlled our town for decades. For the first time, that status quo has been challenged—and it is making some people uncomfortable.

Today, there is a small but vocal group of local “keyboard warriors” attempting to regain control of the Town of Lee Republican Committee. Their goal is clear: to return things to the way they used to be. But we all know that the “friends and family plan” is no longer acceptable to the people of our town. Residents want transparency, accountability, and leadership that follows the law.

For decades, important responsibilities have been neglected. The Town of Lee has not updated its comprehensive master plan since the 1950s. Time and again, concerns have been raised about whether proper Town Law procedures have been followed. These are not small issues—they directly impact the future and integrity of our community.

In contrast, your current Republican Committee has set a new standard for what leadership and service should look like. Together, we have:

Raised more funds than ever before to support Republican candidates and causes.

Built a Facebook presence recognized across the state for its informative and engaging content.

Organized a major pet food drive, delivering 12 tons of food and supplies to the people of Asheville, North Carolina, following a devastating hurricane—an effort that brought both local and national recognition to our town.

Donated 89 free roast beef dinners to St. Joseph’s Food Pantry.

Hosted three Candidate Meet & Greets, providing food and open access to residents at no cost.

Financially supported our candidates with strong campaign efforts, including extensive advertising.

Most importantly, our efforts have produced real results. For the first time in 51 years, the Town of Lee now has a Republican Town Supervisor, along with a Republican majority in elected positions.

This did not happen by accident—it happened because of hard work, unity, and a commitment to doing things differently.

Now, we face a choice.

Do we continue moving forward with transparency, accountability, and community-focused leadership? Or do we allow control to slip back into the hands of those who prefer the old ways?

The progress we have made is real, and it matters. But it will only continue if we stand together and remain committed to the principles that brought us this far.

I urge you to stay engaged, stay informed, and support the continued efforts of the Town of Lee Republican Committee.

The future of our town depends on it.

Early Voting starts this Saturday June 13th thru Saturday June 20th at South Rome Senior Center. Then again on Tuesday June 23rd Lee Town Hall.

We ask that you kindly support the following current Town of Lee Republican Committee Members who are running for re-election:

District # 1 Town Clerk - Christine Pfeiffer

District # 2 Karen Kern

District # 3 Chairman - Doug Singleton

District # 3 Secretary-Matt Murphy

District # 4 Treasurer-Karrie Ann Casler

District # 4 Susan Storms

District # 5. Vice Chair - Kerry Casler

Sincerely,

The Town of Lee Republican Committee

It’s our opinion Constantino has stooped to an all-time low, using a disabled veteran as a prop to bolster his position!
