Highlighting the surreal quality of the day, Mr. Espada was asked by a reporter during the demonstration to comment on the continuing investigation into his campaign finances.He responded in a matter-of-fact fashion: “Which one?”
Espada was one of the two Democratic senators who defected to the Republican caucus, handing control over to the GOP. The other Senator has since switched back to the Dems, but Espada now believes he is entitled to two votes:
"I can have two votes," Espada boldly told The Post."We're going to maintain that, as the president pro tempore of the Senate, I am also the acting lieutenant governor, and the lieutenant governor can vote when there's a tie."
New York is giving Corrupticut a run for the regional political corruption trophy.
