Jesse McKinley reports in The New York Times of the changing story for why the New York State Democratic Party sent out a false and misleading campaign mailer wrongly impling that a Democrat running for governor, Cynthia Nixon, was anti-Semitic. The mailer went to 7,000 households, and cost about $11,000, and both Gov. Andrew Cuomo and state Democrats say it was wrong to send the mailer. But officials have only released few details about who was responsible for the flier’s anti-Semitic language and the timing, just before Rosh Hashana and the Sept. 13 primary. “As we have said this mailer was a mistake and completely inappropriate,” the party’s executive director, Geoff Berman, said Sept. 10. “The party does not discuss internal processes but we take this matter very seriously and are putting rigorous controls in place to ensure it never happens again.” Cuomo oversees the party, but has not taken responsibility for the mailer. On Sept. 11, the Cuomo campaign identified the creator as “an individual helping the campaign on constituency outreach.” But Cuomo campaign spokesperson Abbey Collins wouldn't say who approved the message which accused Nixon of being “silent on the rise of anti-Semitism.” State Democrats have offered to send another mailer clearing up the matter. “I wonder when that mailer would go out,” Nixon said. “Would it perhaps arrive the day after the election or perhaps next week?” Read the full story in The New York Times.
