Wilson, you frequent forums where you are clearly not wanted and know you will be attacked without one supporter to defend you or your views. This is the behavior of a masochist. You must love it, for you come back for more and more.

Not that there is anything wrong with being masochistic, I just thought you should recognize it within yourself.

Is that a Riviera or is it a Toronado? I had a neighbor that had a mid-60's Toronado with about a 500 cubic inch engine. It got 4 miles to the gallon. Good thing gas was only about a quarter a gallon back then....

Mr. Wilson, riddle me this. Do you think the people of Abdullah's district deserve good representation from a counselor that lives in their district? It's very simple. Yes or no. A non-answer will be taken as a no. Thank you.

2007-08-10T17:10:00.000-05:00

If a candidate falsifies his residence on his declaration of candidacy, it is a violation for "falsely making" a declaration. That's a Class D felony. As I said, the appropriate person to act here is Mike O'Connor with some friendly pursuasion from Mayor Peterson. Do they stand for integrity or not? If not, it's just another reason the voters of Indianapolis have for ousting what has clearly become a corrupt, incompetent and out-of-touch administration.

2007-08-10T17:03:00.000-05:00

IC 3-8-2-23 is moot since the date of withdrawal has past. It seems to me to read that the removal by county chair can only be done before the legal withdrawal date.

2007-08-10T16:55:00.000-05:00

Look at this statute:

IC 3-8-2-7

(1) The candidate's name, printed or typewritten as:
(A) the candidate wants the candidate's name to appear on the ballot; and
(B) the candidate's name is permitted to appear on the ballot under IC 3-5-7.
(2) A statement that the candidate is a registered voter and the location of the candidate's precinct and township (or ward and city or town), county, and state.
(3) The candidate's complete residence address, and if the

candidate's mailing address is different from the residence address, the mailing address.

And look at this statute:

IC 3-8-2-23

(4) is no longer an active candidate.
(b) The county chairman of any political party on the ballot in the election district or a candidate for the office sought by the person described in subsection (a) may, upon determining that this section applies, file an action in the circuit court in the county where the person described in subsection (a) resided. The complaint in this action must:
(1) state that this section applies to the person;
(2) name the person described in subsection (a) and the public official responsible for placing that person's name on the ballot as defendants; and
(3) be filed no later than a notice of withdrawal could have been filed under section 20 of this chapter.
(c) When a complaint is filed under subsection (b), the circuit court shall conduct a hearing and rule on the petition within ten (10) days after it is filed.

(B) a candidate on the ballot for the office sought by the person described in subsection (a).
(e) The candidate vacancy shall be filled under IC 3-13-1.

And look at this statute:

IC 3-14-1-1

Sec. 1. A person who knowingly:
(1) falsely makes or fraudulently defaces or destroys a declaration of candidacy, request for ballot placement under IC 3-8-3, certificate or petition of nomination, recount petition or cross-petition, contest petition, or certificate of candidate selection, or a part of the declaration, request, petition, or certificate;
(2) files a declaration of candidacy, request for ballot placement under IC 3-8-3, certificate or petition of nomination, recount petition or cross-petition, contest petition, or certificate of candidate selection, knowing any part thereof to be falsely made;
(3) refuses to execute a certificate of nomination or candidate selection when required by this title to do so and knowing that the candidate has been nominated or selected;

2007-08-10T16:35:00.000-05:00

Gary is 100% right.

Don't for a moment try to obfuscate this argument by telling us the voters decide. In a 75% Democratic district, he's effectively elected after the primary results are certified. Cloaking your arguments in "voters decide" is old, lame and sometimes doesn't cut the mustard.

When I supported Bart for his first term, he promised me this type of nonsense would not be tolerated. I warned him that the Center gulag would make him eat those words, and he professed otherwise.

To this nutcase crowd, the ends justify all means.

Their day is almost up, Gary.

Now, will some voter in Patrice's district (either one of them) file a complaint with the prosecutor?

2007-08-10T15:51:00.000-05:00

In other words, Wilson, the leadership of the Marion Co. Democratic Party is incapable of ensuring the integrity of the process by policing its own. Mike O'Connor and Mayor Peterson should pull Patrice aside and tell him to do the right thing, resign his seat.

2007-08-10T15:24:00.000-05:00

How can anybody "force" an elected councilor to resign? Don't elections by voters have any meaning any more? Can some cabal just "force" an elected official out of office? Not in America!

Nobody filed to run against him in November - he is on the ballot and will be re-elected automatically. Why didnt the GOP or Libertarians run a candidate against this man if he is allegedly so awful?

2007-08-10T15:00:00.000-05:00

Greg just hit it out of the park, without steroids. :-) Plain, simple, honest.

The Mayor and County Democratic Chairman ought to force Patrice off the ballot promptly.

I've been a Dem committeeman since 1980 and I can tell you--most of us are embarrassed by this nonsense. Same with Monroe's leadership.

If Patrice truly honored his chosen faith as much as he professes, he'd back out, to save his honor. Cause his actions sure do nothing to glorify his honor. He's behaved like a whiney baby desparately latching onto his only income and purpose.

How's that for pathetic?

2007-08-10T13:47:00.000-05:00

What I know about this situation is what I have read on this site. It brings to the fore the very issue however of party politics, both republican and democrat (one candidate only presented). It also reinforces the old saying; "You are identified by those with whom you associate". It is sad that with this situation, along with the Monroe Gray situations mentioned, that the local democrat party has not taken a hard stand for integrity. Forget about republican transgressions, this is an issue at hand. It defines our current democratic leadership. Unfortunately, it leads one to the definition of....corruption. This is not about judgement. It is not about mistakes. It is about integrity.

2007-08-10T13:15:00.000-05:00

Agreed. Late 60s Rivieras are seriously cool rides. Fixed up I would love to have that car.

Elections aren't a solution to anything when 1) the candidate isn't qualified 2) the electorate doesn't have any alternative choices. Both problems appear to exist here.

It isn't my job to prove Abdullah lives in his district. It is his job. The fact that Abdullah doesn't want to confirm his residency isn't a good sign.

2007-08-10T11:36:00.000-05:00

Abdullah is about as shady as they come. There were already residency questions when he ran in 2003. His Libertarian opponent filed a complaint with the Marion County Election Board because he misreported about $10k in campaign donations. The alligations were found to be true. Had it gone to the prosecutor, he could have faced a felony. Instead, they fined him $100.

The Star referred to him as "a community leader" on the sole basis that it was his JOB to help people find public housing. I don't think that he does much leading when he's not getting paid. Have even heard that he's asking other councilors for personal loans.

Unfortunately, he runs in an 84% Democratic district. The Libertarian candidate came close to carrying a couple of precincts in '03, but there were several precincts that went 100% Democrat. It's tough to dislodge someone with those numbers.

The biggest shame in all of this: that's a '68 or '69 Riviera. Fixed up, that's an exceptionally valuable, cool car.
