Opinion
August 23, 1995
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Kramer, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
The appellants challenged the designating petition, claiming that certain of the candidates for the position of Republican Party County Committee Member from the 41st Assembly District did not knowingly consent to having their names placed on the ballot. The petition was properly dismissed since all of the candidates signed written consent forms which clearly stated that each "consent[ed] to be a candidate for the party position of Republican Party County Committee Member" (see, Matter of Gambino v. Melillo, 218 A.D.2d 771 [decided herewith]; cf., Matter of Richardson v. Luizzo, 64 A.D.2d 942, affd 45 N.Y.2d 789; Matter of Valli v. Walker, 175 A.D.2d 895, 896). Bracken, J.P., O'Brien, Santucci, Joy and Friedmann, JJ., concur.
