Who Are You Voting For ... and Why?

Instead of telling you for the 55th gazillionth time which candidates I like and why, I'll let you use this space to make your last minute picks in whatever race you want to discuss. Is democracy really dead in Allentown? Will John Callahan get more than 50% of the vote in the NorCo Executive race? Can Dean Browning beat the man who beat him a few sort years ago? Will Bob Donchez and Willie Reynolds be able to work together, once the politics ends at 8 PM? Will racist Tricia Mezzacappa become the standard bearer for NorCo Republicans?

  2. I am a Republican. Instead of just giving my vote to Brown, I am going to write in Ron Angle instead. Hopefully others will do the same. He is good for politics and loves his fellow man. He shouldn't be allowed to just sit home. If he won't run, maybe we can try to force him into coming back.

    And I am going to do the bullet for County Council; I am just going to pick one and it will be a fresh face. I like Hersch.

  3. Peg Ferraro deserves to be kept. Don't be foolish. Vote peg

    ReplyDelete
  4. No way. It is time for someone that doesn't change with the wind. She is wishy-washy. Time for new blood. She should enjoy her years in retirement and take more advantage of her free time. If she wants to remain in politics, looks like the NorCo Republican Committee needs help getting reestablished.

    Yet, I speak only for myself. I am not sure how other voters feel. But her behavior is quite insulting. I believe she doesn't profit anything by her multiple stances. She is a nice person, but I believe politics have passed her by.

  6. I hope Todd, Kim, and Donovan win in Allentown. I can't vote for them because I don't live there. But I hope that stir some things up.

  7. I am sure "Hersch" is thrilled to be lumped in with Angle.

  8. No way Callahan gets over 50%. He will win. Ferraro wins easily..Seyfried, Heckman, Meyers, and Hunter will win. Donchez will win. In Bethlehem Council, Dolan, Evans and Callahan will win..After that probably Waldron.

    ReplyDelete
  9. The county council has been like a boat without an oar or a clue. We desperately need some experience, since Callahan and his gang will be coming in. So county experience somewhere is a must. I am voting for Jerry Seyfried and Ron Heckman. I like Peg in the Fall but despite her experience she is just to wishy washy.

  10. The notion that democracy is dead in Allentown is laughable. I say that because I am pretty sure open and free elections will occur. This is not North Korea O'Hare... stop implying that because you don't care for the results there is no democracy. You know better!!

  11. My vote for Allentown City Council is Mike Molovinsky... oh nevermind he does not even live in Allentown but rather South Whitehall. But he does love to throw stones.

  13. Jennifer Sletvold for Judge

    Becasue she has run a positive campaign, she is best qualified and has a strong work ethic

  14. My prediction for Allentown:

    Hendricks, O'Connell, Glazier and Bell win the primary. This will alter the leadership on council, with Pete Schweyer taking over as council president (for a brief stint before running for, and winning, a State Rep seat). Then we'll go through another shitty appointment process, with the same tired old candidates submitting their names, either in hopes of a Pyrrhic victory or simply out of delusion -- see Pearson, Dennis.

    Guridy's and Mota's fates are tied, but I think enough people are angry about the water lease, the lack of pushback from city council against the mayor, and, for at least one of the members, the poor attendance -- regardless of the medical issue in question. Frank Concannon stepped down because he could not devote the time to the position. Cynthia should do the same.

    In the fall, without a Republican opponent to draw votes from him, Mike Donovan will get enough of the disaffected Democrats, Independents and Republicans to oust Ed. This is the "Anybody-But-Ed" Syndrome, and it's coming home to roost after the horrendous lack of transparency with the mayor's dealings.

    Feel free to debate...

  15. I am voting for Tom Carroll for judge in northampton county because he seems level headed and genuine. As a republican I have had many chances to meet with him and mrs.sletvold. She was nice enough to me but when I saw the way she treated people who were helping her it made me question if she is really sincere at all.

  16. Spadoni for judge. Best choice

  21. Vote Melman, Todd and Velez for Allentown City Council. We need voices on council that are not afraid to be independent of the Mayor.

  22. Went to the polls and voted. Workers said this is the lightest turnout ever. I voted for Seyfried and Heckman. Why aren't there any signs out for Seyfried. I don't understand what is he trying to prove. If he really is serious about winning don't you think he would have campaigned. Not even a mailer from him. I know who he is. Not everyone else does. He may be making a huge mistake. This will affect this vote. Big mistake on his part. He may taking things for granted here.

  24. Voted for William Reynolds could not stand all the negative ads put out by Donchez. Anyone who waste that much money on trash talk and junk mail should not be spending my tax money! Also voted for Abe Kasis young attorney who could bring good ideas to the bench.

  25. Where are all the free campaign parties tonight? I want to have some fun. I usually go to these and have a drink here and a drink there and some food here and some food there. It's a great nite out and its free. Where are you going to be? I want to party with the Gregory crowd. They know how to party. Wild women and all that. How about "Black Belt Gregory" who beats up women and "Kung Fu Jerry" who beats up midgets. That'll be the entertainment.

  27. Voting for all Rs for council except Mezzakkkappa. Pick the right five, folks.

    Sletvold for judge on the R side. She's the only registered R, I believe. Keep the roaches out of our kitchen.

    Good luck to all candidates, except Mezzakkkappa. She should get anal fissures and accidentally sit in acid.

  29. "Why aren't there any signs out for Seyfried. I don't understand what is he trying to prove."

    If Jerry has to campaign in the primary, he shouldn't bother running at all. He will be the top vote getter. Ron Heckman will do well=, too.

  30. "The notion that democracy is dead in Allentown is laughable."

    When three of seven council members are appointed, and the people are completely ignored, it is a fair conclusion. Allentown is Reillyville.

  35. NorCo Council Dems:

    1) Gerald (Jerry) Seyfried. - A former Executive, former Council member and former cabinet level official, I know nobody more knowledgeable about the County than he. Jerry claims Amanda Seyfried gets her good looks from him.

    2) Ron Heckman. - This former Council member and former cabinet level official claims I have a shrine at my estate, containing candlelit portraits of Charlie Dent, Ron Angle and John Stoffa. And he's right!

    3) Deb Hunter. - She's run once before and barely lost, but has continued attending meetings and even participated in the County's first ever Citizen Academy. She is an independent thinker, and like any good teacher, does her homework.

    4) Kerry Myers - Unlike most of today's crop of politicos, this man has spent his adult life as a volunteer. In his case, it has mostly been in youth sports. He brings passion and a pledge to remember our veterans.

    5) Christen Borso. - She has been attending meetings for months, is a well-recognized business person who can bring that perspective to Council, and is another grad of the Citizen Academy.

    ReplyDelete
  36. NorCo Council GOP:

    1) Peg Ferraro. - I am still very upset over the way she deposed Ron Angle. But she has the experience and, in many respects, is often the wisest member on NorCo Council. Being objective, she'd have to be rated highest.

    2) Seth Vaughn. - This Physician's Assistant threw a big scare into Ken Kraft in the district race two years ago. Like Ken, he's a Marine. He's also an Iraq War vet, and brings that perspective along with his medical knowledge. Vaughn regularly attends Council meetings as well.

    3) Glenn Geissinger. - Like Democrat Kerry Myers, Geissinger is known for volunteerism. Like Republican Frank Hesch, he runs a small business. A former Bishop in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Geissinger has been a regular attendee at Council meetings.

    4) Frank Hesch. - A co-founder of the Whitehall Chamber of Commerce, he is a well-regarded small businessman, the kind of Republican we all tend to admire.

    5) Mat Benol. - Despite his Libertarian and tea party leanings. Benol is no extremist. He listens to what others say, and attempts to build a consensus. He is a frequent meeting attendee.

  39. NorCo Exec. Callahan. - He had an opportunity to enter into a swaption and had the good sense to say No. Glenn Reibman entered into this risky financial maneuver. Then McClure voted against ending it. Maybe McClure would be better informed if his committee attendance was higher than 15%.

  43. bernie, the blog mentor, who i call the antagonist, also visited my blog last night, where he speculated on my death.

    on topic, not one person i encountered in the morning diners expressed any interest or knowledge about this primary. i expect a very low turnout. i did notice a campaign worker in the west end this morning, clip board in hand, with a pawlowski sign taped to vehicle. apparently, the administration has a get out the vote effort underway in allentown.

  44. Allentown City Council, Kim Velez, Alfonso Todd, David Melman. They stand for democracy in a city that has not had it for years.

  45. "bernie, the blog mentor, who i call the antagonist, also visited my blog last night, where he speculated on my death."

    In the first comment he ever posted on this blog, he expressed a hope that Jim Martin would explode and die. He later explained it was a cartoon term, but subsequent comments about martin and too many others make it very clear that he does actively wish for the death of others, much like his Northampton County counterpart, Tricia Mezzacappa.

    It's hard to feel sorry for people who want you dead.

  54. In the Republican primary I voted for Dean Browining because of his strong professional background in finance and his long term residency and property ownership in Lehigh County. I trust him, and I just don't know enough about Scott Ott's background.

    No republicans on ballot in City of Allentown, but I'm routing for independent minded candidates Melman, Todd & Velez on D side. I was able to vote for several Republican school board members who have a shot thanks to cross filing. Over the past 20-30 years, ASD (and the City of Allentown) has been victimized by the type of bobbing head all-Democrat boards that get praised for being nice people, get invited to all the social functions and maintain the status quo. They NEVER stand up for the tax payers by making the difficult but right decisions.

  55. Mota. YES!

  59. Carmen Bell--sorry, but the last time Lehigh County saw a slate elected to office, we got screwed (that's a reference to Scott Ott). Couldn't bring myself to vote for the incumbents or Daryl's non-positions. You want independent, look at the candidate that didn't need to be a slate to run. All we get with Todd/Melman/Velez is a different group of heads bobbling to somebody else's commands. Bell has been indy since day one.

    Santiago for district judge. Qualified and fresh face. Rooney is a union lackey. Sure hope he's enjoying that pension. Does he need another. Schlottman is just scary and is a Woodman pawn (her robo calls come from the same number as Scott Otts).

    ASD board: Welsh, Bishop, Lamb and Whooley. Zimmerman is an extremist and Ramos is political operative (former Republican Committee Exec Director... AKA mini Scott Ott). We don't need extremists or political operatives on school boards. We got both in Scott Armstrong.

    I hope my R friends vote for Cusick/Browning/Dougherty and restore some reason to their party. If they send in Schware, Ott and Aquilla for the general, they will lose the Exec Office AND control of the Bd with Osborne being re-elected chair and a D as vice chair.

  60. I'm for Daryl. I like a man who stands up for nothing.
    Plus he will have the time to devote to the position once he retires from the Allentown Police Dept and gets that nice, big, fat Allentown Police Dept. pension. Thank you Julio!

  68. With Reibman papering the County with door hangers using Fleck-ish paid canvassers off the street and the McClure camp completely MIA, the only question at this point is just how much Callahan wins by. I think he gets 60% or comes damn close.

  69. Callahan will get les than 50%, he may win but your landslide is a Callanista Corps pipe dream.

  77. Let's be honest. Large parts of Allentown are in the toilet. Schools are a mess and nobody with a choice wants to send their kids there. There is no republican party and the democrats are led by creeps . Lehigh County could give two shits. The newspaper is a total fucking joke and even Lehigh Valley Ramblings won't cover it ( except to back a kid that most likely has never lived there.)!

    Can you say fucked-up boys and girls?

    ReplyDelete
  78. As I posted in an earlier post and on Tricia's old blog. Please respond to this Bernie. The Tila Tequila of West Easton really needs to take a chill pill. I'm concerned. :(

    "The heart of Tricia’s appeal was that she was just a regular person in politics who happened to be extremely good-looking; a sex symbol who would talk to you back. And she successfully used the goodwill she built up to hopscotch into mainstream fame before falling back to the sort of modest following she had at the beginning of her nursing days – this time, a following comprised of O'Hare-haters rather than other nurses. And her rise and fall would be fine, and sort of karmic, except she’s clearly mentally unstable, and while she was given plenty of attention, she never received any of the help she clearly needs.

    West Easton has changed what it means to be a politician, and while that does help people court fame through grassroots support, it also makes it hard for fragile people to keep a healthy private life – and since Lehigh Valley Live celebrity is a more fickle type of fame than traditional political growth, the mix of no filter and no safety net can make for a disastrous combination.

    Tricia's the original example of how people will “connect” with you, “hike” with you, and vote you in office, but they won’t really know you – and they’re not there to help. Everyone wanted to be Tricia's friend in the Republican Party when she was there to provide titillation, but those same followers are nowhere to be found as she continues to exhibit profoundly paranoid characteristics. That’s why it’s useless to have O'Hare as an enemy when he isn't changing her deranged outlook on life at all."

  84. With 26% of the vote tallied, Callahan is crushing his opposition. He has 51% of the vote. McClure has a scant 21%. Callahan has McClure beat 2.3 to 1. So much for the Fake Rev, his fake exits polls and his fake claim to be the voice of the people. The real people are speaking right now.

    ReplyDelete
  85. I have read about her before. I think she needs some rehab to recover. She actually seems kind of badass and edgy when you get to know her. Not that I support some of her police calls. Still, she's someone I would hike with. On my list of honorable politicians, she's better than Angle because Angle is a RINO (by 2015, he'll be a Democrat and on the council again after getting voted in by blue collar people), but not as honorable as Casey Jr., Toomey, or Dent who are some of the best politicians to ever grace Pennsylvania. I also think that Glenn Reibman is the best Democrat just because he keeps it real and is a gangsta. Plus, he was a teacher too.

  96. Callahan states he wants to attack county pensions!!
    Well Bernie, we shall see where that statement gets him come November. You will see the NORCO Dems pull for Brown and crush Callahan.

    ReplyDelete
  97. Norco dems will unite and support Callahan. Supporting Brown is foolish. Callahan will win and labor and the dems will support him. Callahan made the pledge to retain Gracedale and he will receive the support he deserves. As a McClure supporter congratulations John and lets move this county forward. People supporting Brown have a personal vendetta and are a non factor.

    ReplyDelete
  98. It is quite obvious that women will win elections. Both women won the "D" election primary and Hunter was first. Borso was fourth. Seyfried nor Heckman could beat the women vote. If Seyfried wants to win in the general, he better make up his mind that he will raise and spend some money. He should have been high vote getter. You can't run on your laurels. You must remind the people of what you accomplished during your career.

    ReplyDelete
  99. 11:28.

    You have no idea what you are talking about...The best hope Callahan in regard to labor is to have them stay neutral..That won't happen..Dent and the Republicans will cut him off at the knees..You will have no races in Bethlehem to bring anyone out..McClure's people are the Gracedale crew. You really think they'll support Callahan?

  102. Bernie 11:37 and others is the sad, sad Mr. Gregory. He was running around all the Bethlehem polls today making an ass of himself.

    He has proclaimed he will put his "support" behind John Brown and so should all Democrats. Last I heard all the county Dem winners congratulated John Callahan as did the losers and all pledged to work together for victory in the Fall.

    I think Mr., Gregory is moving around armies that don't exist much like the Fuhrer in the bunker.

    Cuckoo!!

    ReplyDelete
  103. The dems support Brown....many will. When your own party turns on you then it's time to go with the other. At least you know your enemy and don't e pect certain things. Callahan going after pensions will bring out the unions for Brown. Brown can't sell Gracedale. He'll have a dem council. So unions have little to dislike Brown for. Anyway Callahan has too much experience and knows how to get the taxpayer. He has proven he can't be trusted in more ways then one. I expect Brown is intelligent enough to surround himself with good people. He is not full of himself. And thank you county voter for putting Trisha in her place. LAST....the republicans aren't as dumb as the Callahan voters. No quality in either one.

  104. Despite the hatred of both Gregory and fired fireman James Schlener, Callahan won convincingly among the voters of their own party. If Deocratic voters are unwilling to listen to these public sector union assholes, what makes them think Republucans will? And incidentally, Republicans would embrace a candidate who believes in pension reform. The pension crisis is why most municipalities are going broke. Schlener and Gregory should concentrate on what they do best - beating women and posting anonymous slurs.

  105. Jim Gregory at 7:54, get help. Talk to your lawyer and close your mouth for your own good. You won't but your MENSA brain should tell you to.

    Seriously, you are less and less relevant. Even the unions have washed their hands of you.

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.
