Suffolk Democratic Party members have accused the incumbent chairman of deliberately undermining their own candidates in an effort to shield Republicans from stronger opposition. Allegations include behind-the-scenes interference that allegedly weakened Democratic prospects ahead of elections. The claims suggest a deliberate strategy to maintain political influence rather than support party growth. Supporters of the ousted candidates are demanding transparency and accountability over the chairman’s actions.
Party members claim Rich Schaffer, the incumbent party chairman for the Suffolk Dems, secretly sabotaged their candidates to protect Republicans.
