(Jan. 2, 2024) — On Tuesday morning, New York State resident and registered voter Robert C. Laity lodged a revised formal complaint with the state’s Division of Election Law Enforcement regarding the New York State Board of Elections’s (NYSBOE) “misstating the criteria for being elected as President of the United States.”
The original December 30, 2023 complaint contained a clerical error which Laity corrected in this morning’s submission.
NYSBOE members are listed here, with Laity naming co-chairman Peter S. Kosinski in Section 2 of the complaint form in accordance with the instructions.
Instead of the Article II, Section 1, clause 5 term “natural born Citizen,” Laity wrote on page 2, the Board states the requirement as “Born a Citizen,” a claim The Post & Email has long verified and which remains in place today.
On page 2 under “Section 3,” Laity wrote:
Over fifteen years ago, during the 2008 Federal Elections I formally notified the NYS BOE that they were misstating the criteria for being elected as President of the United States. The site cited being “Born a Citizen” as one of the criteria for becoming President. The actual criteria is that one be a “Natural Born Citizen”. As of TODAY, the BOE CONTINUES to misrepresent the US Constitutional mandatory requirement that a President and VP be a “Natural Born Citizen” by having substituted that criteria with “Born a Citizen”. The two terms of art are NOT Tantamount…
In his complaint, Laity referred to The Post & Email’s December 12 article, adding, “THIS INFORMATION IS BEING SIMULTANEOUSLY PROVIDED TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF NY STATE AND THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY OF ALBANY AND ERIE COUNTIES, NY, ET AL.”
Last month at least two other parties contacted New York State officials about the continued misrepresentation, with one sending a pointed email to the NYSBOE and the other, this writer, leaving a voice message with the office of Gov. Kathy Hochul.
In the email containing the completed forms, Laity copied his congressman, Rep. Brian Higgins (D-NY26), who is not seeking re-election in November.
Like they did (15) years ago. NY State appears to be IGNORING the citizen’s complaint AGAIN!
Robert Laity may want to ascertain if those officials involved have a recorded oath of office recorded within 30 days of taking office to defend the constitution. When they have not complied with his constitutional demand send a statement regarding their violation of the oath. See Todd Callender’s research on this issue on the DC federal bench.
Spreading the word. I re-posted an excerpt and link back to here at this site: https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/4207527/posts It should get lots of reads and comments there and get some cross traffic to here also.

Thank You Charles for spreading the word.
Someone on Free Republic made some snide negative comments about the P & E.
I had trouble signing in to the Free Republic.
I wanted to educate the fellow about his unfounded and groundless assertions about my favorite news media the Post and Email.
Lex Greene is also a bit confused about what an NBC is.

If one looks, for example, at New Hampshire’s Secretary of State website, that site correctly uses the term of art “Natural Born Citizen” while NY State continues to misstate the criteria as “Born a Citizen”. The NY State Board of Elections was told about this in 2008.

The NYSBOE’s recalcitrance in refusing to correct this flagrant error by continuing to misstate it 16 years later, leads me to conclude that they are deliberately doing so in gross derogation of NY State Election Law.
