Makeyenko is already riding around town with political posters attached to the well known jeep of his supporting SBS. Voters unite this is not a good option. STOP THE CORRUPTION. It its enough that they have influence in the school district without them playing politics in the city government. IMAGINE FAMILY AND FRIENDS IN THE CITY. LOOK WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO THE SCHOOL DISTRICT.

Imagine MORE family and friends in the city! Is boy toy still the City Marshal? Imagine Miss Prissy Pants running to the stripper to see how she should vote. Can you imagine that? Everyone should be thinking about how fast the city will further decline!! Oh boy, this has GOT to stop before it even begins!
Someone told me JM is still the City Marshal, not sure though. SBS can sing, John will dance & SBS's husband can blow his horn, an off Broadway Production. LACKAWANNA CITIZENS IS THIS THE BEST YOU COULD COME UP WITH? The friends & family club are also backing Jaworski, voters beware.

At least he won't be a Howdy Doody for Makeyenko. Can't say that about SBS can you?Originally Posted by lackawanna #1
Came across an article written in 2008 entitled "UNEDUCATED VOTERS HAVE DISTURBING EFFECTS ON ELECTIONS."
The author wrote that it isn't easy to become discouraged when you speak to neighbors and co-workers about their choices and commitments in the elections. "In essence, ignorance and superficiality have taken a stronghold. People are voting without knowing what they are voting for," the author concluded.
Individuality is crucial in situations like elections. Consider this: if every 4th person you know votes the same as one of his friends or bases their vote on one mindset ("I ALWAYS vote Democrate..." or "My grandfather had a fight with his grandfather in 1948...") and that is a constant throughout the city, then a 4th of the city is essentially VOTING BLIND.
That's quite frightening if only a third of the registered voters bother to go to the polls!!! Please invite everyone you know to the mayoral debate being held on Thursday, August 4th @ Lucarelli's 7-9:30 p.m.
By the way has any candidate other than sbs come up with a plan /platform for reforming our city, when a candidate has nothing to offer, its always try to tear someone else apart to bring them down to thier level.save the bs and put up or shut up.
I grab the Front Page when visiting my family and I have read two articles the Susie had printed. The first one had to do with the first ward and all she talked about was the history of what once wasI didn’t read a plan/platform.
Next we move to the second ward she is going to work closely with code enforcement to rid the blight? I don’t think she understands – she doesn’t direct the workforce. Heh Lackawanna#1, tell JM to “school” her on her duties. does she have any idea ? Nope, I didn’t read a plan/platform.
I look forward to visiting the family Thursday to read what she has in store for the third ward, the ward she lives in.

Like I said before, has any candidate other than sbs come up with a plan /platform for reforming our city, when a candidate has nothing to offer, its always try to tear someone else apart to bring them down to thier level.save the bs and put up or shut up.
Has someone new entered the race? It appears to me from what I am reading that gibbsgal simply said that he/she didn't get a plan out of Sue's articles. I do know as Council President you are part of the legislative branch of city government not the administration aspect. She can not tell any of the departments what to do - that's the mayor's job. Council President only has control over the Council Clerk and City Clerk - that is it!
Platform---Splatform! Boy do you all need a reality check! Nice writing, but......Did you ever attend Council Meetings-State of the City-or any Work Sessions to see how off base any 5-Point plan is to reality?
All this rhetoric tells us is that anyone directly or indirectly connected in any way to the Lackawanna "family and friends club" should not even be considered as a viable candidate in any current or upcoming elections! Because it is the same old same old pre-election articles and when they get "in"---NOTHING EVER CHANGES!
The next Council President must be a very independent leader who will be able to take the hits from all directions when hard decisions/legislation are made. Regardless of their own feelings they must have the ability to take a stand alone when no one else is standing up for the right thing!
Lackawanna needs to completely clean house and get rid of the cobwebs and self-serving good ole' boy mind-set that has held any progress back at our City-Line! Why we have been getting rid of the "blight" since 1983 and 28 years later it is worse than ever! Can you imagine the millions+ spent over the years that have been the 5-10-1000 Point Plan and here we continue to sit, beat-in down, crippled, and broken!
The only immediate/future plan we need is for people to stop talk-in and start walk-in the walk. Sincere Candidates should have dedicated in any way over the past years volunteering in the First or Second Wards, wherever, for any community activities, in other words "You Will Know Them By Their Fruits".
You are missing the point Lackawanna #1, no one brought down SBS to any low level, it was done the moment she decided to run with the backing of JM family & friends club. You are the company you keep, that says it all. The desire, want, & need of that group to control all strangles the city of Lackawanna, there will be no reform for this city, same oh, same oh, just like the school district. Voters you need to look at the big picture.
Good point getalife. Did u see who is supporting Pirowski and Mckusker? Tony Mingrelli. Who's Supporting Mckusker? Cathy P, Tony Mingrelli etc. Same old disgruntled city employees. It's never gonna change. City is doomed.
You are damn right I am supporting Pat McCusker but not because I am looking for a job- I already have one! I am supporting Pat because he has the SKILLS to run the city. Funny that you think I am a disgruntled ex-employee- when I attended the police picnic a couple of weeks ago, I had a nice conversation with Geoff where he stated that he has never regretted a vote that he made while councilman other than 1- the one he made on January 2, 2008 where he voted against me. He went on to tell me about my work ethic etc. I knew my job and was quite good at all the jobs I held in the 14 years I worked for the city. I also spoke with Jaworski at the Hispanic Festival and he even said if it wasn't for Norman pushing his weight around, I'd still be there So dicky- leave the disgruntled BS alone - I am far from disgruntled- infact- I am MUCH happier where I am. Now, why would you vote for anyone who is being led by someone else? Pat is his OWN man- and won't allow someone else to tell him how to MANAGE the city. If you truly care about the future of the city-you too would vote for the man who has the SKILLS to revive the city. Vote McCusker!!!
How can you have a plan for the first ward if your husband is a racist? More like vote pandering saying anything to get elected. Where's the platform nothing of substance whatsoever. What do you expect from someone who never goes to council meetings!
