Ragusa remains head of Queens GOP

From the Queens Tribune:

Phil Ragusa will remain chair of the Queens County Republican Party after the petition against his election was dismissed.

According to a court filing obtained by the Queens Tribune, the judge ruled the case against last September’s reorganizational meeting invalid, saying there was not enough evidence to overturn the vote, which saw Ragusa retain his position as head of the Queens GOP, against former U.S. Rep. Bob Turner.

“The court has examined the petition and finds that it fails to set forth facts sufficient to justify the relief requested. The petition must set forth facts supporting the claim that irregularities occurred at the organizational meeting which altered the outcome of the election,” the filing read in part.

Last year, Turner’s side, represented by former Councilman Tom Ognibene, filed a petition in court, challenging the vote over concerns about the meeting’s operation, including the vote being held on a weekday afternoon, which allegedly prevented some members from attending the meeting.

The filing ruled that notice for the meeting was clear and sufficient.

Another frivolous lawsuit wasting court time by fractious party hacks.

That's an old picture, Ragusa doesn't look like that any more. He looks like he's really sick.

Hey Phil, you can fit another head and neck in your shirt collar. Tell you home attendant to buy a smaller size shirt.

Those goons who keep trying to claim the chair are paid by the opposition. Turnercoat could have beat Wiener in 2010 and only won in 2011 because of Koch. He never spent the big bucks he promised. And Turnercoat rewarded Koch by voting for Obama's tax hikes. Norquist was right to oppose him for Senator.
