In his post election campaign finance report, filed December 3, 2009, Allentown Mayor Edwin Pawlowski lists an $8,000 expenditure for to "misc. canvassers for election day." But he fails to tell us who they are, or how much was paid to each.
Voting Registrar Stacy Sterner directed Pawlowski to itemize his expenses on December 23rd, and was told she'd have it by January 4th, the day she retired. Pawlowski dragged his feet, ignoring his promise to Sterner as well as two or three calls from Acting Registrar Terri Harkins. On Monday, I had to wonder whether this was actually an election day slush fund.
Yesterday, on January 19th, Pawlowski finally amended his report, itemizing the $8,000 he claims to have spent on election day.
I'll tell you about that below.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Where's the list?
