DeFusco (2017) and Raia (2013) campaigns SHARED 7 paid workers!


Hey F.B.I. people! GA's been reporting on Hoboken election anomalies for years now. Here's one from Hoboken's 2017 mayoral election, which GA published last September, one month before the Raia indictment...  

7.1% of the total votes cast citywide for Mayoral Candidate Mike DeFusco's were mail-in ballots (325), but 47% of DeFusco's campaign workers requested mail-in ballots. 

Almost half. That is a statistical anomaly. So what have we learned since last September? A lot, including but not limited to: 

(1) Frank Raia went on trial and was convicted on one charge of voter bribery for his 2013 Let The People Decide campaign.   


(3) Mike DeFusco, Ruben Ramos, Tiffanie Fisher and Jen Giattino are being represented by the same public relations firm for their ward council election next November.  They're a TEAM! 

(4) Seven of DeFusco mayoral campaign paid workers who requested mail-in-ballots also worked for Frank Raia's 2013 Let the People Decide campaign!

Of course, there is no implication of wrongdoing on the part of the (7) persons who worked on both campaigns.  It is not surprising to see crossover in campaign workers because Raia supported DeFusco in 2017- donated nearly $10,000-- and seems likely they collaborated on DeFusco's GOTV  effort. 

Supporting documentation is  below. (Feel free to check my work- maybe I missed one!)

  2. Interesting that 47% of DeFusco campaign workers voted absentee.

    Looks an awful lot like the distribution of 4th ward "workers" hired by Russo in 2015:

    156 of Russo "campaign workers" were 4th ward residents. GA found 72 of them on Hoboken's VBM report; 46% of that group from the 4th ward requested VBMs.

    Anomolies abound!
