Conservative Party’s Executive Committee Had Authority to Designate Candidates for County Executive and County Clerk in Chautauqua County

The Fourth Department rejected the argument that the Conservative Party’s Executive Committee did not have the authority to designate candidates for county executive and county clerk in Chautauqua County:

It is undisputed that, pursuant to the Election Law, the County Committee is the default “party committee” empowered to issue … certificates for the county offices at issue (Election Law § 6-120 [3]…) .  Petitioner, however, contends that the rules and regulations of the County Committee of the Conservative Party (County Committee rules) did not effectively delegate that authority to the Executive Committee and thus that the Executive Committee lacked the power to issue the …certificates.  We reject that contention and conclude that, under these circumstances, the County Committee rules delegated to the Executive Committee the power to authorize the designation of the Unenrolled Candidates as candidates for the relevant county offices in the upcoming Conservative Party primary election… . Matter of Bankoski v Green, 820, 4th Dept 8-15-13
