Dear Clergy, brothers, friends, and family:

This letter/article I wrote about Veterans Day next week is now published in the Queens Gazette, Queens Courier, Bayside Times and the Queens Chronicle.

Please remember November 11th is Veterans Day-a day to honor all who have served our country and sacrificed their lives for the greater good. Americans really should take a pause on that day to honor our brave men and women. For more than 246 years, many have fought and died for all those freedoms we all hold most dear. I myself have served in the United States Navy during the Vietnam era and was proud to have done so. Now to honor our veterans today I am a member of the American Legion Post #103 in Douglaston, which is dedicated to helping fellow veterans. I am also a member of The Catholic War Veterans & Auxiliary in Glen Oaks Village which also helped fellow veterans. We should salute our brave men and women who are now serving this great nation, and who are now serving in the most dangerous parts of the world. Those who served have done so at a great personal sacrifice, many having to leave family, friends, and jobs for the greater good. I hope and pray this Veterans Day that anyone who is able to will fly the American Flag of this great nation in their honor. Also, if you can, call a veteran you might know and thank them for a job well done and thanking them for their service. May God bless these brave Americans and may God bless America this Veterans Day.

Sincerely Yours,
Frederick R. Bedell Jr.
Bellerose, N.Y.

NY Citizens Audit: “Citizens Election Integrity Report”

Become a Poll Watcher for your local Republican candidate on Election Day and report any election irregularities you witness or voter fraud to NY Citizens Audit on the report form: “Citizens Election Integrity Report” 

Link: https://forms.auditny.com/apps/forms/a8MGRj5zgGGR6Fkp

We’ve heard way too many reports of fraud and violations every Election Day and Primary Day for years. Registered voters who find they are not listed, voters denied a ballot, candidates and volunteers electioneering inside the poll site, Poll Workers and Interpreters telling voters who to vote for, someone who already voted in your name, Poll Sites not open on time, Republicans given Democrat ballots in Primaries, operatives voting at multiple sites, sample ballots on display with pre-selected candidates, registered voters given an affidavit ballot, and many more irregularities reported. Now we have a place to report these violations, a statewide team that is making a difference to secure the integrity of our elections. NY Citizens Audit is collecting these reports to mount legal challenges in every County of NYS. They are working to expose the truth and stop the rigging of our elections. If you see any election irregularities, please fill out the Citizens Election Integrity Report form.  NY Citizens Audit: https://auditny.com/
