BREAKING Earwitness News: DeFusco's Poll Results!


It's a day of mourning in Hoboken politics- in the DeFusco camp, that is.

GA had cast out a wide net for the results of last weekend's citywide phone poll that some believe was the handiwork of a Sacco political operative tapped for the mayoral campaign of Councilman Mike DeFusco. 

Well... I'm afraid to say that various ears were garbed in black and waxy.  Because what was expected to be encouraging news, turned into a massacre for the mayoral prospects of Councilman DeFusco.

The press was not even notified about Defusco's poll results- not even after the numbers  were pumped with embalming fluid.

Nope, these poll numbers will be quietly buried... "What poll?"  "That wasn't OUR poll- it was a Union poll!"

In fact, DeFusco associates were seen running away from the poll results faster than Hussein Bolt around the 200 meter track.

Those sad, sad ears tell GA that the DeFusco camp is reeling; the poll-massacre has put DeFusco's scheduled announcement on ice... for the  moment.

Allegedly substantial amounts of cash have been "pledged"- but will these pledges materialize now that his poll numbers have crashed like the Hindenberg?

GA doesn't know, but if DeFusco had announced last October- instead of a drip, drip drip of leaks, by now he would have citywide name recognitiopiles of money in his account (not "pledges"), and would be much further along.

Tragically, any momentum he might have had sank with his "Shake Shack" swan song.

SAD. Everybody sing along...

  1. The logical conclusion of hype over substance.

  5. Too bad this story is so far off base.
    Seems a guy that's such a joke occupies quite a bit of The Mayor's team's headspace.

  6. Hillary Celebrated her polls against Trump too, but word is his poll wasn't even finished until this week.The dismissing DeFusco and Coronation mentality only makes zimmer people stay home
    What Neophyte would suggest that announcing last October be needed?
    Did Ronald or Nason?

    1. it's not zimmer's poll to "celebrate." it's defusco's. probably has more to do with whether checkbooks will be loosened up for him. seems unlikely now. those are the only real "voters" in this poll. the comparison to trump falls apart on that score. it's about money not votes.

    2. Who's celebrating? What coronation mentality? Defusco's been sooooo arrogant, trying to push people out of his way (Stick, Nason), bullying Phil Murphy not to back Dawn, bragging how much money his PAC raised... don't ya think it's funny that his poll flopped? Cmon it's funny.

  8. Maybe he isn't quite as delusional and stupid as Mason. She usually ignored polls that told her she was pond scum.

  9. I can imagine the immediate reaction to looking at the figures:
    "What de Fusc?!?"

    1. I so do not miss the scatological rants of "Cadbury Bars" where is he these days?
      What a weirdo

  10. In the last 60 days it is the same story in different words. Defusco, Defusco Defusco. He was finished from day one and the story persists? Implying to viewers to not vote for him or to scare him off are failing miserably. Nobody is buying your bullshit. But keep churning them out, just makes the Zimmer jungle gym look weaker and weaker.

    1. Hey @M4M, in case you missed my comment on another post, please respond to the following VERY SIMPLE question:

      Let's talk FACTS. FACT: DeFusco has accomplished diddly-squat since arriving in office.

      Don't give me this BS about how he's "concerned" about this or that. What's he ACCOMPLISHED? Diddly-squat.

      On what planet is a guy who's ACCOMPLISHED diddly-squat qualified to be mayor?

      Delete
    2. Anon @1:05PM "M4M"? Really no need to abbreviate that way, unless you're trying to slur a gay candidate or try to insinuate something you think the voters won't approve of... Seems you're smoking Vapes too. He's accomplished more in his private career than Zimmer did prior to her run for Mayor after 2 years other than vacate her seat because of Absentee ballot issues, lottery tickets and collect VBMS with Pupie in the projects

      Delete
    3. So we're supposed to support people based on accomplishments in their "private career" now?

      Please stop trying to turn everything into a potential "anti-gay slur". It is truly obnoxious. Homophobia is a worsening problem under Trump. All assholes like you accomplish "in your private career" of faux concern is telling the average borderline person that it's all politics. No one is really subject to discrimination. You give aid and comfort to the enemies of equality just to score a sleazy point. STOP.

    4. @6:52, wtf? How is M4M an anti-gay slur?? What does it stand for? Please explain.

  11. "...Tony Soares says he will not run for City Council or for mayor in the upcoming election."

    Writes Sully this week in answer to the question that no one asked or even thought of, ever. LOL, can't make this stuff up, this guy must live in his own fantasyland.

    1. Soares must have read his poll numbers.

    2. "Run Tony, run!" said nobody.

    3. Ask Sullivan when the interview took place-- leave the guy alone, saw him a few days ago, he's still recovering from an accident and Tony told me and Horse months ago he had no plans to run, but I'm sure you folks will mock that too like someone on the Mayor's team was a few weeks back.. of all people.. Soares is your favorite punching bag. You guys are bullies #meangirls

    4. If Tony Soares doesn't like people taking shots at him maybe he shouldn't take shots at other people.

      Delete
    5. So attacking him getting hit by a car is okay?

      Delete
    6. Why did the council vote 9-0 to reappoint Soares to the NHSA after the first so-called " controversial deal" that was made 3 years earlier?
      Was another deal made?
      Funny, the council sent numerous requests for him to reapply to the NHSA, but that doesn't fit the Zimmer " Brand" "Narrative"

      "On Brand everyone- On Brand" -- we went to Wellstone

      Delete
    7. Relax, I had no idea he had an accident. Sorry to hear, hope he's ok and has a speedy recovery.

      Hey @8:10, who, exactly, on here is "attacking him getting hit by a car"? That's total BS and you know it.

      Delete
    8. I didn't know TS had an accident, but his mouth and typing fingers are fully recovered.

  12. Wonder how Murphy would feel if he saw the comments on the blogs by his interns?

    1. Good question. If it turns out he reads the blogs there's no way I'll vote for him. We already have a president who can't get his priorities straight.

    2. Yet here you are posting on this blog again.

    3. 10:55, if you're referring to me, my solemn vow to you is if I ever run for governor or president, I won't read the Hoboken blogs.

  13. I doubt the actual poll results will ever see the light of day, especially if they suck for DeFusco. But maybe someone will give a hint about the question everyone is asking about, with Tony Soares's withdrawal from consideration as a Mayoral or Council candidate:


    Who polled better against Zimmer - Soares or DeFusco? My money's on Soares. I wonder if he pulled out not because he was too weak but because he was too strong to play a supporting role?
