My name is Cara Castronuova, and I am an investigative journalist currently embroiled in a contentious legal battle with the Board of Elections and the New York State Republican Party as a candidate for United States Senate.
Republican Party leadership and a Board of Elections representative took me and multiple other candidates to election court to have us “thrown off the ballot” and stymied a Republican primary this year. There were no primaries on Primary Day! Your right to vote was subverted and a single Republican primary ballot did not exist, except for one in Queens District 25, and one in faraway Yates County.
