While the narrative is all about the anti-trump wave, the reality is candidates are the ones who put us here. This is why Democrats did so well in Onondaga County this last Tuesday. I recap the night and tell you whats ahead next week. youtu.be/TcpZARCArqY?...

Some people are rightly criticizing Democrats for not running everywhere last election. Good news is most of these offices are up again next year. If you are enthused by this last election, find out how to get involved here: dustinczarny.com/2025/11/09/t...

If you are like me, visuals go a long way. Here are the changes happening in Onondaga County come January 1, 2026 in the Onondaga County Legislature and Onondaga County Town governments.

He also said independent voters – a block that has been growing among young voters – likely leaned 3-1 for Democrats. ... “This is beyond anybody’s expectation or even dreams,” he said. www.syracuse.com/news/2025/11...

I appeared on the Jim Reath Show to wrap up the election and talk about what is next at the Onondaga County Board of Elections as well as the Democrats historic night. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJvM...

"4, 5, and 10 were all targets for us, and almost every year for the Democratic Party, because of the registration of those districts, and finally, they all got over the hump together." ...they didn’t just barely win, they crushed it. cnycentral.com/news/local/t...

Good morning America...our strong multicultural Democracy still exists and in fact theives. Stand in the way of it at your political peril.

Its late and I will have a more clear thought in the morning but there are seismic shifts happening in towns all across Onondaga County. Thank you to the election heroes who stayed late tonight and got up early this morning to make our Democracy happen.

Welcome to Election Day. Polls are open from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. You can check your voter registration and find your polling place at onvote.net. Or call the Board of Elections at 315-435 vote. Go out and make your voice heard.

"Voting yes on that ballot will do two things: It will move the Onondaga County Legislature from a two-year term to a four-year term starting in 2026and then it will also put a 12-year term limit," explained Czarny. cnycentral.com/news/local/o...

The total is a 41% increase over the previous record for a local election year set in 2023, said Dustin Czarny, the county’s Democratic election’s commissioner. www.syracuse.com/politics/cny...

Early in person voting is over but you still have two opportunities to cast your ballot 1.) You can apply for an in person Early Vote by Mail on Monday ONLY. Apply in person or send an agent with an application signed by you authorizing someone to pick up your ballot to Onondaga County BOE

“They like the convenience of it,” he said. “We've kept basically the same sites for the last four years. So they know where the sites are, they know what the hours are, and campaigns are getting used to pushing their voters to early voting.” www.wrvo.org/2025-11-02/e...

In today's Commissioner in a Car I talk about the stats of #EarlyVoting in Onondaga County over the first 6 days. Who is turning out? Which site are they going to? I also give you all the details to participate over the next few days. youtu.be/EE-dNlCEXnM?...

There are candidates out there fighting for your vote right now...today. You have 4 days of EV and Election Day to be part of the solution. You can make a difference. It's in your hands my friends. Go to onvote.net to see where you can vote.

As we enter day 5 of #earlyvoting lets look at the day 5 totals for the last 3 local year elections. 2019 4443 2021 4471 2023 6213 We already have 6771 votes in just 4 days in 2025. Day 5 is on deck and polls are open noon to 8pm. Go to onvote.net to get more information.

It must be said that these are not independent candidates for the most part," he said. "Most of these candidates appear on a major party line. And because of our unique system of fusion voting in New York, it allows their name to appear multiple times.” www.waer.org/news/2025-10...

By the time polls closed Monday, 5,018 people had voted at the 10 polling sites in the county, topping the record of 4,025 for the same period in 2023, said Dustin Czarny, the county’s Democratic elections commissioner. www.syracuse.com/politics/cny...

“Over the next five-10 years, I wouldn’t say cost savings is the main reason to do this,” he said. “We’re already opening up polling places for judicial candidates and city candidates in those odd years until those eventually get moved.” spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/central-...

"In total, 1,898 voters turned out across the county’s 10 early voting sites, Czarny reported. That’s 19% higher than the first day of early voting in 2023, the last year voters went to the polls to pick local leaders. www.syracuse.com/politics/cny...

The victories of Finney, Cassidy and Ciotti are part of a growing Democratic presence in the village. Shifting voter demographics have contributed to a growing blue trend in the area, according to Dustin Czarny www.syracuse.com/politics/cny...

New Yorkers! Get ready to vote! And if you need to register, there’s still time. Local elections matter. A lot. Here in Onondaga County the Legislature is sorely unrepresentative of our demographics and they manage almost $2b of your money. Please end the GOP supermajority.

“It sets a 12-year term limit. No one can serve in the county legislature for more than 12 years. The current term of office is now two years for a county legislator; it would now go to 4 years. www.localsyr.com/news/your-lo...

Dustin Czarny calls the ... ruling ... a “celebration of democracy.” “It’s unanimous. It’s bipartisan. It was written by the one Republican judge on the Court of Appeals,” said Czarny. “It’s pretty clear it’s a win for voters and will help move New York forward.” www.wrvo.org/2025-10-22/c...

"It's one of the reasons why I supported the even-year election law," said Czarny. "To align some of these elections in even years when more people are planning to go to the polls, and some more can vote in these local elections." cnycentral.com/news/local/e...

I appeared on The Jim Reith Show Unleashed to talk about the impact of the Even Year Election Law ruling from this last week. Check it out. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbZP...

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring. Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

“Now more people will choose their representatives,’’ Czarny said. “And however that turns out, whoever they choose, it’s better for democracy.” www.syracuse.com/news/2025/10...

I had a fulfilling day in DC with Columbia County GOP Commissioner Kelly Miller-Simmons and her deputy Jody Nesbitt. We talked to a half dozen NY offices about the need to properly found Election Infrastructure nationwide. Funding has dropped from 400 million to 15 million over the last 4 years.
