Will Minarik move to oppose Bellavia?

It’s no secret that local Republican operatives don’t want David Bellavia to be the Republican nominee in NY-26. And I don’t think his strange comments about Tiger Woods or the slightly nonsensical clip “explaining” these comments have won him any new admirers in these circles. It looks like Steve Minarik may (wisely) endorse someone else soon:

Minarik says Republicans will meet this weekend to decide whether to endorse Rick Lewis (of Talking Phone Book) or businessman Christopher Lee; both of Erie County.

It won’t be either.

As I said earlier - Reynolds seemed luke warn as well per his comments.

Though Republicans have been courting candidates who have significant personal wealth that would help fund their campaigns, Reynolds said a candidate’s bank account isn’t as important if he or she can attract donors and support from political organizations that help fund campaigns, known as 527s.

“I think the world of David Bellavia, but I don’t think he has a lot of money,” Reynolds said.

“I think that what (a candidate) needs is the ability to get your message out,” he said. “There’s certainly been a lot of groups wanting to weigh in on campaigns.”
