Reform Group Wants To Abolish State Government



A government reform group that has targeted incumbents in the past, is pressing to remove them all from New York State Government, and reform the state with a new constitution.

"Our ultimate goal, is in May of next year to give people the ultimate opportunity  to remove every judge and legislator in the state,"  says Leonard Roberto, a semi-regular candidate and the founder of Primary Challenge, an anti-incumbent group.

"Sadly, the truth is, that of the many State elected officials, precious few actually work on behalf of their constituents, but rather have made a practice of consuming our personal wealth, violating our liberties and ignoring our will for their personal gain,"  Roberto said in a statement delivered outside Buffalo City Hall.
 
Roberto's group is using the petition process to get the reform measure on the ballot next year, and hopes to establish an interim government run by the county executives in each county.
