Read who is responsible for the illegal negative robo calls against a fellow democrat. QCD Blog outed the culprits, Allentown Fair's resident cop, and Pawlowski's sidekick and perennial supporter, Rob Hopkins.
My response:
This is just another demonstration of the contempt Pawlowski and his machine have for the public.
Vote for Dick Nepon. That is one way to put an end to these guys that think they can control your city and your politics. You are being denied access to information and fed lies. If that is what you want, then vote for Pawlowski. He must be at the heart of this. Follow the money. Pawlowski is the only one who has any. Don't wait until it is too late, vote Pawlowski out tomorrow.

I have 'tickets' for the victory celebration, at Spooner's restaurant at 921 Hamilton Street. I believe it is somewhat insulting to be saying "here you are about to vote, and you don't know who to vote for" so I just want to invite people to the party.
You can hand these out before the election in your neighborhood, or hand them out at the place you vote. I have a list of places where the vote is high if you want to be somewhere else. Let me know where and when I can get you these 'tickets'. email me
The polls open Tuesday at 7 AM and close at 8 PM. Any time you can spend greeting people and handing out invitations is great.
I can get you an official poll watcher certificate which allows you to enter the polling place to inspect the voter record. It not only allows you to see how many people have voted, but it also allows you to go in and sit down, assist people with voter issues, and most important, it allows you to use the bathroom. It is also a neat memento. Let me know if you want one.
Also, of course, you are invited to the party. It begins when the polls close at 8, and will offer some snacks and coffee.
Thanks again for your help and support. It has been my pleasure meeting all of you. I look forward to the opportunity to serve you.

Crime down?
Do you know anyone, beside the Mayor, who feels that crime has decreased? Any police who believe it?
If the numbers have gone down it is because people have stopped reporting crime since it doesn't get addressed, or investigated or solved, unless it is high profile. All you get is a report number for your insurance carrier. As if everyone was insured.
I can guarantee you that the perception of crime has not decreased. Everywhere I go people are looking for help lowering the crime rate. The Mayor claims that there are no gangs, but is happy to get funds to combat them.
The other reason crime might be down is because people are scared to go out. Downtown is empty. Even Pawlowski says you need three elements to have crime, a victim, opportunity and a criminal. We have plenty of the later, but are lacking in the former. Perhaps that is the Pawlowski Plan - if every one moves out, the rate will go down some more.
Let me know if you think that the crime rate has decreased, and you feel safer this year than last year.

PAwlowski's most successful development
Why does Pawlowski keep asking for more money? His campaign fund is already his most successful economic development.

WFMZ will be a poor replacement for real news
After spending a lot of time attacking me for an old resume that I never used to get a job or to run for Mayor, WFMZ gave me very little coverage for my campaign announcement, and then stopped running it. They have yet to cover any of my charges about Pawlowski's misrepresentations as outlined on my FACEBOOK page and BLOG.
With the loss of real news coverage from The Morning Call, I was hoping that WFMZ might become a source for real journalism, but it appears to be only interested in 'gotchya' journalism.
There are real issues I have addressed, but the news has decided that you don't need to know them.

About my qualifications-What I wrote to Renshaw
Jarrett,
I believe in our discussion that you, not I, said I was not qualified. I disagreed, pointing to my ability to do the job. I said I was not experienced or trained for the job. I talked about how many people get jobs that they have no training for. Qualification is the ability to do the job. I was qualified, and in fact performed the job to such a high degree I was promoted and paid more. My qualifications were my experience with computers, with math, with real estate, and my ability to learn quickly.
Check your notes.
But otherwise, a nice piece.
Thanks

You can say ANYTHING you want about Dick Nepon, but you CAN'T "knock" his tenacity and hustle. He is going against all odds and making situations work for him. If nothing else, he IS a role model for those who see a goal and REFUSE to let anyone tell them that they can't obtain it !
