It's a mystery...
Word is, a phone poll went out this weekend; the first of Hoboken's 2017 mayoral election season.
GA has reached out to the (3) prospective candidates, and guess what?
None claim ownership of the poll.
The poor thing is an orphan!
According to an Earwitness, the poll questions included (but were not limited to) Mayor Zimmer's job approval, and favorable/unfavorable opinions of:
- Mayor Zimmer
- Freeholder Anthony 'Stick' Romano
- Councilman Mike DeFusco
- Hoboken City Councilmen/women
- Tony Soares
- Beth Mason
- Donald Trump
So, why doesn't anyone admit to 'owning' this poll? Was the sponsor a third party?
A developer, perhaps?
Stay tuned, people.
And if any of you got this poll, please fill in the gaps .
I got the phone call over the weekend. I hung up after about 25 seconds as the person asking the questions could barely speak English.
ReplyDeleteIs it one of those Beth polls?
ReplyDeleteMayor Zimmer cooks and eats toddlers. Do you support the toddler eating mayor?
1) Completely, I like my toddlers well done.
2) Somewhat, a balanced diet of toddlers and whole grains is fine.
3) Not at all - think of the children!
What a cast of characters.
ReplyDeleteI knew Soares was running.
ReplyDeleteUgh. What a sourpuss.
DeleteBeing in a poll means one is "running" ?
DeleteHe's a has been right, so why is anyone in the administration polling him?
If Soares runs he's got an uphill battle.
DeleteIt sounds similar to the poll Mason did in the second ward before she got clear message to drop out of the race. Why else would her name even be on this one?
ReplyDeleteI hope Beth Mason does try to run again we can all use the target practice.
DeleteConsidering Stick Romano was one of the very few that showed up at the Mason mansion not to long ago, to listen to her lame story about cutting out newspaper articles to send to people, if Mrs. Mason runs it will because Romano as many suspect will not run for mayor but try to hold on to his Freeholder spot and the Russo's don't have the will or cash to run anyone else.
I wondered why they mentioned Mason too. She's been out of office for over a year, and in politics, that's an eternity. Not so if you're delusional. Got a 2017 calendar from them as well, so I can mark the days until they move.
DeleteWhy did they leave out popular people like Forde Prigot, Dana Wefer and Stan Grossbard?
ReplyDeleteThey are all dyed in the wool pure reformers, no doubt they'd win in November.
GA you would have a bit - not much- but a bit of cred if you list ALL the Council people by name who were polled since ALL council people were polled. not just DeFusco. Obviously you're on a mission to slime Defusco... but I'm sure he's not worried about "YOUR blog" - without all the fake posts filling it up these days, it makes fake news sites look legit
ReplyDeleteI certainly hope DeFusco is NOT taking you seriously, you two-faced snake. If he puts you on his slate that's the Kiss of Death; you've left a slime trail of filth across cyber space like the nasty slug you are. If this blog weren't "credible," you wouldn't be here, would you? That's rhetorical.
Delete+1 for GA! Seriously though, the blogs are far more credible than the local press - which is exactly why a certain group of scumbags targeted them and the people who comment on them for intimidation and silencing.
DeleteThe vile ugly toad croaks again.
DeleteTrump for Council!
ReplyDeleteGo read MSV, and don't forget your tin foil hat. You will be more comfortable in that garbage dump.
DeleteYou need the heavy-duty tinfoil for the shit he's shoveling today.
Deletehe's still bashing hillary and he wrote all the replies to himself. i bet Klausen is laughing now. kill off your audience:check. make up logins to hide the fact you killed off your audience:check. no one left but stan and tony who cant help themselves.
DeleteIf Mike DeFusco runs he should go all in on blowing up his career. A ticket of Tony Soares, Beth Mason, and one of the less stable Russo kids should do it.
ReplyDeleteMike has probably already done some short term damage to his career by seriously putting himself forward as a potential candidate. Running would convert that damage to something that will last. The council ticket he'd be forced into will ensure the whiff of old guard corruption sticks around.
Mike has every right to run but I'm finding myself more and more disappointed with him.
Word on the street is that Mike has been running around meeting with developers and unions since he can't raise jack sh*t from anybody without a stake in developing Hoboken to the sky.
ReplyDeleteSome reformer. He's the second coming of Peter Cammarano though without the cash in the paper bag (so far at least).
It will be interesting to see what other fake reformers insult our intelligence and line up to join his circus.
All aboard the bash Mike train. He's obviously no good since he's not doing exactly what the people closest to the mayor want him to do.
DeleteSome people are sick of mayor Zimmer. She should at least consider passing the torch. If not to Mike then to someone.
"Some people are sick of mayor Zimmer." unfortunately for you, many more people still like her and what she's done.
Deleteanon 10:16- maybe
