"Some say Ballard is contemplating a run for another office, maybe a state wide office"

Assuming he'd collect the needed petition signatures, he'd never get past a statewide primary. There's enough animosity towards Indianapolis out in the primary active red areas that it would require a brokered State Convention similar to what was attempted with Jon Costas and Greg Zoeller to get Hizzoner on a statewide ballot.

Chuckie Brewer will bring about REAL change, Anon 7:49?!? Seriously?? HAHAHA The guy who personifies Marion County GOP insider politics? The guy with multiple residences/multiple addresses who would better be suited running for mayor of Chicago using another of his addresses... LOL Now THAT has me ROTFLMAO. Not a chance.... not a chance.

2015-06-03T06:50:28.122-05:00

Call me crazy but if I were a Marion County Republican elected to office or running for the first time or gaming for re-election, I'd be VERY concerned how Greg Ballard's long documented graft, corruption, lawlessness, and allegiance to special interests dragged down and damaged the entire November Republican ticket specifically and the Marion County GOP in general.

The dishonest Greg Ballard is seriously damaging the electability of just about any Republican in Marion County- except perhaps the electability of Christine Scales who proves time and again she is for truth and for the people and never for the pay-to-play gang.

If I were a Marion County Republican elected to office or running for the first time or gaming for re-election I'd be VERY concerned that the executive director of the Marion County GOP and his little minion BC and almost every GOP Township Chair are so out of touch and out of their league and so out of time they should be fired and/or replaced without hesitation.

The pathetically low public image of the stereotypically crooked politician we call Greg Ballard is set in stone as the epitaph to his tenure as mayor. Stop the stench of Greg Ballard now. Some say Ballard is contemplating a run for another office, maybe a state wide office (does the guy's ego really extend that far??)... Greg Ballard is the perfect example what Indianapolis, the Hoosier State, and the Republican Party do not need.

Am I correct that it is the U.S. Attorney's Office, southern district / Josh Minkler who should be investigating, prosecuting these crooks?

Is there a worthwhile independent candidate out there anywhere?

2015-06-02T18:38:15.886-05:00

The Marion County GOP gave about zero help in the first election of corruptocrat Greg Ballard but it was every bit the corrupt and shameful Marion County GOP/Tom John/Tool Kyle Walker/dastardly David Brooks/Bob Grand who found in Greg Ballard someone who would sell his ex-soldier soul and they took advantage of it and, of course, assisted in pushing him through into his second term.

The Marion County GOP now wants to cram Chuckie Brewer down your throat. While Lying Joe Hogsett will be no better, Chuckie Brewer will be more of the same Greg Ballard in a thinner body with thinning hair... Indianapolis loses any which way it goes with the mayoral choices given to us.

2015-06-02T16:14:05.395-05:00

Let me get this straight...crony deal after crony deal. lie after lie, under the thumb of the utterly debauched Greg Ballard but the Marion County GOP villified the Honest and Honorable City Councilor Christine Scales for admirably performing her duties in protecting the best interests of her constituency and for Marion County.

I also call on Kyle Walker and Bryce Carpenter to immediately resign.

how many signature's would it take to get Ballard out of office Good idea but he has greased enough asses this will never happen But who do we have to blame cause people reelected the crook

I agree with Unigov 12:22-- Advance Indiana is the best place for real news.

Maggie Smith is so late to the party... this gal who dresses worse than some of the late night walking chicks on E. Washington Street proves she has been totally asleep at the wheel in our CIty Council Meetings allowing CORRUPT CRIMINAL GREG BALLARD steal our precious tax dollars for his cronies.

And yes, these funds were STOLEN, not misused. Whatdya wanna bet the attorneys and attorney firms who used Ballard's ignorant self will let Goofy Greg Ballard twist in the wind alone- hopefully Ballard will make the long trek to a federal prison- while the attorneys and GOP "leaders" live in their expensive downtown digs or their gated Carmel homes?

BALLARD DISCREDITS THE ENTIRE MARION COUNTY GOP... and the stinkin' ship is going down fast. They got head rat Ryan Vaughn off in time and protected with his overpaid position at the Sports Corp.

Hogsett will say nothing... he IS Greg Ballard in a leaner but just as corrupt body.

2015-06-02T14:55:37.273-05:00

The money wasn't misued, IT WAS STOLEN !!! If you take money out of a fund that you are prohibited by law from TAKING then you are STEALING.
I am none to happy to see what my water bills have risen and then to hear that the bastards are stealing my money I am pissed beyond reason.
SOMEBODY'S ASS NEED TO GO TO JAIL AND IT NEEDS TO HAPPEN NOW!!

From Council President Maggie Lewis:

“I appreciate Auditor Voorhies bringing to the Council’s attention DPW’s potential misuse of stormwater funds to pay for new electric vehicles that are being added to the City’s fleet. The information she provided is very concerning and will be examined thoroughly.”

A very, very tepid response from Maggie. No comments from Smoking Joe Hogsett??? Hogsett's campaign ad said he cut spending every year. Lets see the Budget for White Collar Political Crime must have been zero.
