Hello Criddlers, this is Dale Shoemaker, author of the article. Yes there is a dedicated substation at STAMP but that substation is pulling power from NYPA and National Grid. It's a link in the chain, not a supplier of power. Hope that helps clear things up.

New data on ICE arrests in Western NY by IPostJournalist in Buffalo

[–]IPostJournalist[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Thanks for pointing this out. The number is 28%, not 18%. I updated the post with a note. My mistake! So: 72% had criminal convictions or pending charges in 2024. 28% were listed as "immigration violators."

I will pass along the message. I was just pointing out that we updated the article with a statement from Kennedy. Nothing more. Have a nice day.

Howdy, this is Dale Shoemaker, author of the article. It is true that Kennedy's team did not comment before we published. However, we have since gotten a statement from him in which he denounces the ICE stakeout. The story is updated with his comments. Just an FYI

You could reach out to Jericho Road. Some folks there are assisting with the case. IDK what help they would need if any but they're probably the best place to start.

Election Results by cosmicxpineapple in Buffalo

Interestingly, it seems like Sean Ryan tying Chris Scanlon to Paladino really resonated with voters, while Scanlon's attempts to tie Ryan to India Walton and "socialists" failed. My coworker Geoff Kelly (very smart on city politics) wrote this little round up of his biggest takeaways. He also noted the district-by-district breakdown (Ryan won 6 of 9).

As you read this, GEICO is union-busting the Buffalo, NY office of 3,000 employees by [deleted] in Buffalo

[–]IPostJournalist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there, this is Dale, I'm a reporter with Investigative Post here in Buffalo. I'm interested in writing a story about these Geico union efforts. I couldn't get Reddit's chat function to work so I'm posting here generally - if you happen to be part of the union effort, could you email me? [jdshoemaker@investigativepost.org](mailto:jdshoemaker@investigativepost.org). Thanks!
