Opinion
August 22, 1985
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Beisheim, J.).
Judgment affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
Petitioners are not members of the same political parties as respondent candidates and thus are not "aggrieved candidates" within the meaning of Election Law § 16-102. Since petitioners were not objectors before the Board of Elections and are not "aggrieved candidates", they do not have standing to maintain this proceeding ( Matter of Stempel v. Albany County Bd. of Elections, 60 N.Y.2d 801; Matter of Menendez v. McNab, 83 A.D.2d 893, appeal denied 54 N.Y.2d 769).
In any event, we agree with Special Term that petitioners' objections were insufficient to put the respondent candidates on notice as to the specific objections of petitioners to their designating petitions. Brown, J.P., O'Connor, Weinstein, Kunzeman and Kooper, JJ., concur.
