Just like the Wicked Witch of the West , riding by on her bicycle in the Wizard of OZ, I could see the Party Soldiers crunching their numbers.........deetadeetadee, as she screw faces us, saying----" I'll get you, my pretty! ".
It is ALL about the numbers and I bet the streets are loaded with their soldiers today ( not tomorrow--Bills play) , asking/begging voters to vote straight Democrat.............trying to reel in " their Pretties " aka the PRETTY VOTE for the PARTY.
The Party gain is more important to them than the betterment of Lackawanna....if I am not telling the truth then why are we not at least looking to the outside in good shape? Especially because $$millions$$ in development (CDBG {Community Development Block Grant} ) monies, etc. have come into Lackawanna over the Polanski----Szymanski years!
MEGA-BUCKS and we look worse now than we ever did!
If the "family and friends club" patronage was not more important than our City .......we would have our street-scape, land-scape, Regal City Hall--Community Buildings, and state of the art Fire Stations ( * the boys had to float the $5mil BOND this year to do $1.2 mil work on them because they are condemned), fully equipped Police Task Forces, etc.! Wouldn't we.
Anyone who votes strictly DEMOCRAT or whatever Political Party you are in, and NOT the person is voting for more of the same neglect of the City of Lackawanna and the people who live in it!
I am a Democrat but my party has let me down due to their own self-serving agendas, so I again say, VOTE THE PERSON----NOT the PARTY!
