August 22, 2002
In a proceeding pursuant to Election Law § 16-102, inter alia, to validate a petition designating Lawrence T. McClean as a candidate in a primary election to be held on September 10, 2002, for the nomination of the Democratic Party as its candidate for the public office of State Senator from the 10th Senate District, the petitioner appeals from a final order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Strauss, J.), dated August 14, 2002, which denied the petition and dismissed the proceeding.
Before: MYRIAM J. ALTMAN, J.P., GABRIEL M. KRAUSMAN, GLORIA GOLDSTEIN, BARRY A. COZIER, REINALDO E. RIVERA, JJ.
ORDERED that the final order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
As the petitioner had the full period of time provided by statute to obtain the requisite valid signatures and failed to do so, the Supreme Court properly denied the petition (see Election Law § 13-100, as added by L 2002, ch 56).
ALTMAN, J.P., KRAUSMAN, GOLDSTEIN, COZIER and RIVERA, JJ., concur.
