This is a clear violation of a state House rule that provides, "No member shall be permitted to vote and have his or her vote recorded on the roll unless present in the hall of the House during the roll call vote."
The member for whom Schlossberg voted, Pete Daley, said he gave no authority to anyone else to vote on his behalf.
Schlossberg publishes a blog that chronicles political gaffes, usually by Republicans. Time for him to include himself.
What a vile disgusting individual. When laws /procedures are broken, it seems that very few politicians and unelected govt bureaucrats are seldom held accountable.
ReplyDeletefor some weird reason, their law breaking news is released and that is . no more news about actually paying a price for these violation.
it is far pasty the time to hammer these vile pigs who abuse the system and abuse the tax payers on a daily basis.
"Ghost" voting in the legislature? WTF? THIS is where voter ID is needed, because this is where a few votes matter - not for the public in their towns. Did this guy both press a button for someone else, and cast his own vote?
ReplyDeleteHe voted for John Daley as well as himself, according to The Patriot News. This incident is not being reported in the local papers, but should be.
ReplyDeleteThankful Mikey will be getting an actual opponent in 2016 and will have to answer to some of these things.

That candidate should be knocking on doors NOW instead of having someone post comments anonymously. A-town is a one party town and part of the reason for that is shitty or no campaigns from the other party. He has become arrogant and is obviously ethically challenged, but you need to come out with a very strong and well-financed campaign to remove this servant of monied interests.
ReplyDeleteHis FB page provides a full and dramatic running account of his hard work, dedication, and courage in dealing with the clusterfuck in Harrisburg.
ReplyDeleteApparently the young man is a regular profile in courage.
The Mayors number one boy.
ReplyDeleteSay what you want about this guy, he has had the decency to remain by the mayors side and be a true and loyal friend when others have deserted the man.
ReplyDeleteThere's something to say for that kind of noble loyalty in a man.
Mr Schlossberg seriously needs to be made unemployed at the next election.
ReplyDeleteThe ghost of Christmas present. He needs to be schlonged in the primary.
ReplyDeleteLoyalty does not trump ethics.
ReplyDelete2:06'
ReplyDeleteMuch like the Christmas city where the dem in breeding continues unabated
Once again Bernie great job on your reporting.
ReplyDeleteOnce again, we all MUST set aside loyalty to political party and clean house. If ANY paid representative on the state or national level 'bends the rules,' to put it mildly, or has become lazy, GET THEM OUT OF OFFICE!
ReplyDeleteThe coming year needs to become an ANTI-INCUMBENT effort. Our politicians NEED a strong message of citizen control. Governance has been corrupted by action AND inaction. We need new faces!
Fred Windish
Schlossberg has always been a weirdo but now he is a scofflaw. Fed Ed should be proud that his limousine driver can do more than drive a car ! Schlossberg is a piece of shit and made the Democrats look like crooks .He needs to be primaried and taken out next year !
ReplyDeleteThis is just more of the same for Mike, he got to wear he's at by following orders, no questions asked. And since this is Allentown rest assured he will face no serious primary challenge and will be easily re-elected next November. In many respects he is the perfect representative for the Queen City, clueless and partisan.
ReplyDeleteScott Armstrong
A 'scofflaw' is a guy who doesn't pay parking tickets. This guy corrupted the very essence of an open representative government. I can see his campaign advertising theme next year: "Schlossberg is such a good representative that he will even represent people he doesn't represent."
ReplyDeleteJust wait for the medical excuse.
Thanks for posting this story Bernie. I heard Gunther on the case this morning, too. Don't let the Christmas break make this go away.
I'm sure there must be some mistake, Micheal is such a nice young man and his wife is a school teacher, she is nice too. I see him at the city functions and he's always friendly, so polite, asks me how I'm doing, I know he really cares.I have no doubt this is some sort of Republican trick, they are all totally nasty and hate people. I hate them.I would never vote for any of them.

ReplyDeleteMichael if he ever had has lost a level of the public's trust. Anyone who sells his book at a public event is pretty low but now ghost voting may be the icing on his cake. If it's illegal and some say it is, he should resign. Is there any level of embarrassment that he won't try? Who can believe anything he says.

We really need to learn why he dared to do this. Who told him to vote for someone else? A good investigation needs to start and certainly a change in House rules needs to be immediately approved and his votes removed too.
ReplyDelete"If it's illegal and some say it is, he should resign."
ReplyDeleteIt is a violation of House rules. It is not a specific violation of the state Crimes Code. It could be construed as a deprivation of the public's right to honest services, which would make it a federal violation. With the second highest paid legislature in the country and a state with no budget, no one should have been absent.

ReplyDelete"As for Acosta, she is traveling out of the country this week and could not be reached. It was not immediately clear whether her leave request had been filed with the Democratic leadership, but her chief of staff Aissia Richardson, said Acosta is "vehemently opposed" to ghost voting.

Ghost voting used to be common in Harrisburg. However, it was typically done with permission of the absent legislator.

ReplyDeleteSchlopsberg is a world-class political hack. The constituents in his district would elect John Paul Gacy if he was a Dem. He was the hand picked successor to Jen Mann, who continues to feed off the public trough. All these bums should be tossed out of office. Six months and still no state budget. All they do is collect their fat salaries and juicy expense accounts.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Benie.
ReplyDeleteBut it's just Metcalfe's word that Schlossberg hit the vote button? That's not very persuasive to me...I'm gonna need more evidence before I join the calls for Mike's head.
ReplyDeletePerhaps he should move to bedlam. He would do well there as they are political whores. hear booby d formed another sub committee of the citizens committee to make sure no one got more than 2 Christmas cookies from each other because that would be unethical and perhaps a bribe as he an the council reaps the benefits of so called developers.

Monkey Momma raises a good point. How does a state official vote? Did someone have to actually get up from his seat and walk over to the other representative's and cast a vote? More information is needed but if this is true it casts a dark light on Schlossberg.
We have (1) the word of a state rep who saw Schlossberg do what he did; (2) the admission of a state rep who admitted he was absence and gave no one authority to vote in his absence; and (3) Schlossberg's failure to refute the accusation when I posted it on his state rep facebook page. Instead of responding, he went on to something else. That is a tacit admission on his part. I will save that Facebook page and sent it on to Metcalfe for his state ethics inquiry

ReplyDeleteThis should be a front page news story. Is it?
Thank you for being the only news reporter we really have anymore.
Merry Christmas to You Bernie. You allow the everyday joe to express our opinions.
Here's a telling comment issued by the House Minority Leadership:
ReplyDelete"Democratic Whip Mike Hanna, D-Clinton, deflected questions about the matter Wednesday, saying he is focused on trying to resolve the budget impasse."
Forget about integrity. Forget about House Regulations.
As for "if" Schlossberg cast a ghost vote. There are video cameras that broadcast
live TV. Those tapes should provide proof, either way.
Paw'low'ski taught him how to lie, cheat & steal, it's God's will he said!
ReplyDeleteTo be a fly on the wall Monday when Schlossberg has to address his colleague.
ReplyDeleteWhat is almost as troubling as Schlossberg casting two votes (he voted himself also), is that ghost voting appears to be common practice even though it isn't legal. Where is the investigation into THAT?
ReplyDeleteThis high profile bill apparently would not have passed if not for the ghost votes. The nads on Schlossberg are quite large - they should be put into a nutcracker.
You got it all wrong. He is a courageous, hard working man of the people.
ReplyDeleteSee his Face Book page.
The part that confuses me is why there are no controls on who is voting? Shouldn't you need an ID badge, or a key or something that activates the ability to vote at that station? Such technology would cost about $10 per station. Install that, and you have to have complicity in order for this to happen.
ReplyDeleteThe Banker
Common sense says that we safeguard voting with things like identification but then this would diminish the ability to stack votes. Same goes for reps being held to account for ghost voting or better yet precluded from the act. It would diminish the ability to stack votes.
DeleteI still laugh at the fact that there are elections that have a greater turnout than there are living registered voters.
12:43PM
ReplyDeleteca..Can you site a single verifiable case?
I won't comment on guilt or innocence, but I work at Amazon, where every employee needs their badge just to activate the door to let you in. Not to mention to clock in and out. So why doesn't the most expensive legislature in the known Universe ($200, $300 million a year to operate) have a machine that they have to scan at their badge to verify their presence in chambers and also to cast a vote?
ReplyDeleteI think we taxpayers should start demanding that representatives have to clock in and out in Harrisburg and post their timecards publicly.
^ AMEN!!!
ReplyDelete7:10, Here's what is interesting. The newspaper in the geographic area of two of the state reps reported as having been ghost voted ran a story. But Schlossberg's ghost vote has not been reported in The Morning Call. Now it IS Christmas and the reporter who covers Harrisburg is a good guy and has not been shy about telling things as he sees them. He has reported on the ghost voting but has not named Schlossberg, likely bc he has no more evidence than Metcalfe and has not spoken to Schlossberg. I believe the evidence that exists is good enough.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure the video enables you to see every desk. I have confronted Schlossberg about this on his state rep page. He has gone on to talk about other things, but has been slent in the face of this accusation. That implies guilt.

ReplyDeleteFirst off, Merry Christmas Bernie. Secondly, I am anything but a partisan hack. As you were the first to report a couple years back, I went against the establishment and endorsed a Democrat. As for the picture of me and Mayor Heydt, he is a personal friend. We rarely if ever talk politics when we get together. I look forward to proving myself as an honest and hard working individual.
ReplyDeleteBen, You have just been handed a Christmas present by Schlossberg. And though you did support Tom Muller over Scott Ott, like many other Republicans, you have for the most part been a cog in the party machine, including a stint as your local party's Exec Director. I think I can safely call you a partisan although I did not call you a partisan hack. Unless you give Democrats a reason to vote for you, you are going to lose. On your Facebook page, you claim to have studied "political science" at DeSales. Dis you graduate? Do you have a Master's degree, like Schlossberg? Do you have any real life's experience? Do you still live with your parents? What have you ever done about the lack of transparency in government? Did you advocate for campaign finance reform, like Fegley did? Did you speak out against the abuses of the Pawlowski administration, like Scott Armstron or Lou Hershman did? What exactly have you done except pose for pictures with people who are better known than you? Don't mistake my condemnation of Schlossberg, who like you never had to work for anything, as support for you. I'd much rather see someone run who could win. In that district, it would almost certainly have to be a Democrat. You are not quite ready for this leap and will just be wasting campaign money. Try to get someone in your party to run who can actually win. You should wait.

Ghost Voting Common Practice In Pa. House
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CrMpvwdeag
they literally rig their voting button. why? to cast a vote but even more important to collect a per diem ...they can collect every penny of their per diem with out being on Harrisburg. lets see if the two politicians who weren't there, were paid a per diem.
a judge gets hammered for emails that are stupid and frat boyish, and he gets suspended. ok I get it...
a state senator or congressman is on a plane to Florida , not only casting votes all day long but collecting a per diem . Basically saying FU tax payers , I will bill you for the 150.00 per day even though I am not on the floor or in Harrisburg. and not one thing happens to the crooked politician...something is very wrong with this system.

Someone mentioned this commercial earlier today. Couldn't believe Schlossberg would run this now. Almost as if his chamber buddies got together for damage control. Whether it was produced now or months ago, timing matters. It is inappropriate at this time and should be removed. Mr. Schlossberg appears to have very little inner sense of propriety.
Well we have one Republican stating he had just left the floor when another voted for him. Then the request was made for leave for the remainder of the day. Yeah, I buy that.

Back to ghost voting/ verification: I know that privacy advocates will have issues with this, but why couldn't state issue Drivers licenses/ID Cards with an RFID chip in it that not only allows police to check your driving/criminal record, but also your voting eligibility? We have the tech, why not avail it? Anything can be abused, but the prime users should be our representatives. If anyone should deserve to be tracked to prevent abuse of privilege, it is that GANG.
ReplyDeleteAs for spending, it galls me to no end that the legislature is still collecting their pay without doing the basic demands of their job, including passing a budget. And they are still getting all their benefits, while social services and schools suffer. Too bad we can't make them go hungry, without their medications, or sleep in rooms without heat.

We don't need a Schlossberg's cheerleader or a Schlossberg family member, to lecture us on the warm and fuzzy side of this hack criminal.
You are out of your mind. I know some of the people who post on here and I can tell you with out hesitation, they are disgusted by this guy and his antics including his pathetic biased blog. He is everything that is wrong in regards to politics.
In fact you forgot to mention how he and Ed Pawlowski are very very very good friends. Based on your weird logic, that would put Schloss on the naughty list waiting for the feds and or the state to come knocking at his door soon.
But hey, he is a great guy, who graduated from Muhlenberg. This is a very pathetic selfish individual who dislikes any and all opposition . This is a guy , based on his writings , might have some other issues, that need not be mentioned in this forum.
In fact , he also uses good liberal Alinsky tactics when it comes to opposing views or opposing parties. no need to look any further than his blog to support this statement. just like he was taught by his good political buds in the city. He is not alone. He is as slimy as one can be with out going to jail. He will mess up and will be held responsible for his scams. It might start with his ghost voting. WE know for a fact, this was not his first time in doing this. This was the first time he was exposed\ bc his buddy was not even present, and did not give permission to the warm and fuzzy Schlossberg.

I don't care if he's depressed or handicapped .. Anybody that can falsify a vote for an absentee colleague that will affect the taxes that I pay needs to be ousted or resign whichever comes first . Schlossberg is a shill for all liberal politics therefore supports Wolf and his out of control taxation platform . Time for you to go Mikey . You can't be trusted !
