The Dale Volker Protest

Protesters gathered outside the Erie Basin Marina (mostly because the protesters and the media weren’t allowed within the gates of the marina itself) to protest a fundraiser being held for NY State Senator Dale Volker on the Miss Buffalo II.

The purpose. To discourage donations to long-time incumbent politicians who supports the untenable status quo in WNY government.

    Dale Volker is an old codger that gives people the douche chills. I feel bad for people like Jack Quinn because he is forced to stand behind him at events.

    Of course standing behind Volker is a small price to pay for having Daddy hook you up.
