Hogwash. Jackie Nytes was four square behind Brian Mahern. Ask anybody. Some Demos were betting against Brian, but Jackie wasn't one of them. You are right about her influence. Brian's huge margin of victory was due in part to her considerable sway in that district.

I don't know, Erin. I assumed before the vote Mahern would support Nytes because of their Democratic Party ties."

Louie thought (thinks) JN was supporting Scott Keller in his bid for District 16 seat (over LM offspring Brian Mahern) because of SK's support for various positions. He wanted to make sure she was "controlled" and without influence during the election.

Sometimes personal gain is more important than political parties.

1:54 is absolutely right. Enough Mahern already.

I'm kidna glad, for Jackie's case, she didn't get this job. It's a mess over there.

Not sure it can be fixed. But Mahern's action was incorrect. So what else is new? A Mahern tries a shortcut.

Mr. Mahern probably insisited Mr. Pizarro show up that evening to affect the outcome of the CEO vote, especially since Mr. Pizarro missed at least the last two meetings. Ohio isn't that far.

Its obvious Mr. Mahern was aware of the possibility JN could get the position, that is why he made certain Mr. Pizarro showed up to the meeting; especially since he missed the last two or three. Ohio isn't that far!

It was too obvious that Louis manuvered the takeover just so Mr. Peter Pizarro would support his vote for Laura Bramble. What it all boils down to is that Mr. Peter Pizarro should have not been seated especially if he has moved out of city, county and state. And especially since the new board member was sworn in and ready to begin her service. If the board was aware of his residency change I would say unseat those especially Mr. Louis Mahern, and nullify any votes Mr. Pizarro was involved with up to his term expiring or his lack of Marion County residency.

I hope people remember this Mahern power grab when Dane Mahern runs for the 97th house of rep seat. NO more Maherns especially ones who arent very smart.

Gary,

Can you provide any background as to why this would be the desired choice? Seems something fishy is going on, but why? Personal animus towards Jackie? Just curious as to what the end goal is here.
