612 VBMs and counting... roving Mason-Occhipinti thugs tearing down campaign signage... mysterious rivers of cash flowing into opposition coffers unaccounted for because ELECs have not been filed... the NJ Attorney General's gone AWOL when Hoboken needs her most...
It's up to YOU and your neighbor to 'say NO' TOMORROW (Wednesday) with your VOTE.
Let's be frank: the people funding the opposition don't give 2 shits about our public schools. It's all about weakening the mayor. They hate the mayor more than they love our children.
GA's not in this for politics. Hell, no. My daughter goes to public school. She's the most precious person in my life. This is about HER. And about all the KIDS in this city. Politics, be damned. I've seen with my own eyes the progress that's happened in a short time under the unconditional commitment of the Kids First Team.
Now, I like Carmelo Garcia personally. But...
Check out Carmelo's School Board ATTENDANCE RECORD:
Carmelo votes with the majority. Whichever way the wind blows. And if the machine takes back the majority and turns the public schools back into a patronage mill, Carmelo will vote with them.
Nice guy. But Board members don't have to be nice. They just have to do the right thing by our kids. And our taxpayers- under the KF majority the tax levy stayed flat.
So please... we are up against a TIDAL WAVE of VBMs... please EVERY VOTE COUNTS. The polls are open from 7am - 9 pm. Please remind your friends and neighbors.
VOTE KIDS FIRST: 3A - 4A - 5A
