Get out and Vote for Hoboken City Council May 10th! Today!

Update 5/10/11: Today is City Council Election Day 2011. Turnout is expected to be about 8,000 voters out of a potential of 36,000 voting aged people in Hoboken according to some of my sources. If it is more than that it bodes very well for the cllection of candidates bck by Mayor Zimmer. If not, it could be a long day for reform.

Below is a note from a local realtor that summarizes some information on the upcoming City Council election. Whether you support Mayor Dawn Zimmer and the progress she is trying to accomplish (i.e. a rational taxpayer) or that you don’t like her policies and want a City Council to oppose her at almost every turn (on the take, developer sell-out), you should exercise your right and make your voice heard at the polls on May 10th. It could take as little as five minutes of your time this coming Tuesday May 10th. Love your town and vote!




Here's who's running (* designates incumbent):

1st Ward
Eric Kurta (Endorsed by Mayor Zimmer)
Theresa Castellano* (Russo/Mason team)

2nd Ward
Tom Greaney (Endorsed by Mayor Zimmer)
Beth Mason* (Russo/Mason team)
Franz Paetzold
Patricia Waiters

3rd Ward
Greg Lincoln (Endorsed by Mayor Zimmer)
Michael Russo* (Russo/Mason team)

4th Ward
Rami Pinchevsky (Endorsed by Mayor Zimmer)
Tim Occhipinti* (Russo/Mason team)

5th Ward
Peter Cunningham* (Endorsed by Mayor Zimmer)
Scott Delea (Russo/Mason team)
Peter Belfiore
Leonard Luizzi

6th Ward
Jen Giattino (Endorsed by Mayor Zimmer)
Nini Giacchi* (Russo/Mason team)

Hoboken's Culture of Corruption always can turn out their vote {$40.00 a pop some times helps get them to the polls.

As we have seen if the the turn out is low the bad guys win.

Vote Tuesday bring YOUR friends and family it is important to your future.

It's interesting they designate candidate as Russo/Mason team. It's basically credible, but have Mason and Russo actually jointly endorsed anybody? and in the 5th Ward I don't think it's clear Perry-asaurus isn't also backed by Russo/Mason, but I guess it would look strange to list competing candidates as endorsed by the same group (there's an easy solution to this confusion though: vote Cunningham).

A relative who works in real estate has gotten several notices from another broker, not backing the anti-Zimmer candidates, but implying it by criticizing the Zimmer slate for being pro-rent control. I personally am anti-rent control. It shouldn't exist. Phase it out, with due consideration to people who've made past decisions based on it, depending on their situation. But, I don't see any credible alternative to Zimmer as of now, and her council slate in this election.
