Raymond Weinstein for New York Delegate to the USCF
This year voters in Downstate New York, that is New York City and Long Island, get to vote for up to 14 candidates for New York Delegate, but there are only 13 candidates running. This means that one write-in candidate will be elected. I have voted for Raymond Weinstein to fill the empty slot. I hope that you will vote for him too. Raymond Weinstein has been a life member of the USCF since he was 18 years old, when he won the US Junior Championship. As an active tournament player he defeated every top rated grandmaster is the US with the sole exception of Bobby Fischer. In one of their games, he seemed to have a winning position against Fischer, but he could only draw. Weinstein has defeated, at one time or another, Reshevsky, Benko, Evans, Robert Byrne and Donald Byrne. Weinstein is only rated 2415 by the USCF, but that is because ratings have inflated since he was active. By present standards, his rating would be about 2550. http://www.uschess.org/msa/MbrDtlMain.php?12397560 Another important factor is the dedication Raymond Weinstein has for New York State. It so often happens that we elect a delegate and then he deserts us by moving out of New York State. Raymond Weinstein would never do that to us. He has the conviction and the dedication never to leave New York State. There has long been considerable support for electing Raymond Weinstein. It has often been said that Raymond Weinstein is the one man who can clean out the self-dealers who infect the USCF. A vote for Raymond Weinstein is a vote for Clean Government. Vote for Raymond Weinstein today. Sam Sloan http://www.samsloan.com/weinste.htm |

RW has convictions and would be a killer of a delegate. Sam seems to want to make a tradition of this little joke every USCF election. For readers unfamiliar with Weinstein, he is a convicted murderer. Then again, knowing Sloan, he might be quite serious about promoting Weinstein's candidacy. For once there would someone on the ballot even less qualified than Sam. |

Is Weinstein the highest rated chess master to have committed murder? A top 10 list would be interesting. How about the bank robbers? Old Haasie |

That was 42 years ago. How can he still be insane after 42 years of therapy and medications? Seems like the guy must have a really bad attorney or his family does not care or they passed away. Do you think Charles Manson is sane? It's been 37 years since Sharon Tate and four other peoplere were murdered by Manson and his followers. -- Mike Nolan |

Here's another story about Weinstein, on Tim Krabbé's Chess Diary website: http://www.xs4all.nl/~timkr/chess2/diary_4.htm Scan down to item #64, "Raymond Weinstein in Amsterdam." It appears that before he committed murder in the USA, Weinstein came close to it in Holland. Interesting link. Thanks, now we have a more complete picture. |
