Channel 13 leads off the 6 PM news with this story!!

About time the MSM picked up on this, Gary!

2007-08-15T07:04:00.000-05:00

This city adminstration has proven that corruption is the order of the day. It has no respect for voters and taxpayers, but it loves spending tax dollars to the benefit of their contributors and political cronies. To heck with the average citizen.

A change is coming in November, bank on it!

From the Candidate Guide from the Sec of States office.

2. City-County Council [Marion County only] IC 3-8-1-1 provides that: “…(b) A person is not qualified to run for … (2) A local office…unless the person is registered to vote in the
election district the person seeks to represent not later than the deadline for filing the declaration or petition of candidacy or certification of nomination.”

IC 3-8-1-25 provides that:
“A candidate for membership on city-county of a first class city [Indianapolis] must have resided in the district in which seeking election, if applicable, for at least two (2) years before the date of taking office.”

Abdul is reporting that the statement of candidacy listed the Warman Ave address, which is not in his district. If that is the case, he should never have been certified by the County Clerk's office for the ballot.

2007-08-14T21:26:00.000-05:00

A declaration of candidacy is an affidavit. If Mr. Abdullah knowingly signed his declaration with an address inside the district, but resides outside the district, He has committed fraud.

Mayor Bart Peterson, Beth White, county clerk and secretary for the county election board and Aaron Haith, attorney for the council are attorneys and democraps to name a few. Is he legal? What is there to think about?

Mr. Abdullah has to forfeit his seat on the City-County Council.

Mike O'Connor, county chair do your job!

2007-08-14T18:50:00.000-05:00

Someone should look at Patrice's 2003 candidacy declaration form, if it's still around. Just to check and see if he lied then.

Andre Carson. I know him. Personable, maybe. Smart, not on your life. Not that brains are a prerequisite for the Council--on EITHER side of the aisle. (Do we really need to start naming names here?)

Another government employee on the council. That about takes the cake. Jeezus Freaking Christo, can Democrats find ANYONE to run for Council who's, oh, not sucked at the public trough his/her entire life?

I realize it's damned difficult for minority males to rise up and find gainful employment sometimes.

And I also realize the State of Indiana is a gainful employer.

But please, please Mr. Chairman, don't do this to us. If you have the chance to start moving away from this clandestine internicene crap, do so.

Im gonna look up the website: www.dumpsterdiver.com
and see who registered it.

Hey Wilson. Look up. Your sky is starting to fall.
City government will be Republican again in November.

2007-08-14T17:59:00.000-05:00

mr. wilson (whoever you are), i don't think anyone is "dumping" on mr. abduallah. he brought this on himself. he does not live in a residence in his district-- by his own admission, his former house is a disgrace, and he has an inoperable vehicle in his yard. these are facts. then there is the subjective stuff such as his behavior at CCC and committee meetings, apparent lack of gainful employement, or playing the race/religion card when he is criticized.

he chose to run for and be elected to office. what is happening now is not dumping. it's demanding accountability of an elected offcial. there is no defending him.

2007-08-14T16:45:00.000-05:00

I understand Andre Carson is employed as an excise police officer for the state's Alochol and Tobacco Commission.

2007-08-14T16:31:00.000-05:00

If you'd been reading the threads here, you'll notice I have NOT been dumping on Mr. Abduallah, unlike most of the jackals here!

My my my Wilson, you can't seem to find enough teets to suck on can you? Now you go after momma's baby.

First hand has it that your bitch against Patrice is that he is Muslim. Is that right? His being black wasn't good enough for the Ghetto Mafia's good Christian black ministers was it Wilson?

I don't know a damn thing about your Andre other than the group he was raised in. I don't need to know anything more.

2007-08-14T15:21:00.000-05:00

So Mr. Wilson you stated " I'm not the issue: Abduallah's residency is."

What is your stance on his residency ? If he truely does not live in the district even if by accident ( I did not know the side of the street my house is on is in another district ) should he resign ?

Wilson,

In the grand scheme of things you had/have your hand in it. Maybe not so much now, but when The Machine was starting to take over this city(while you were in the trustee's office), you were there greasin' the wheels.

It's kinda sad when my hysterical, obsessed stalker tries to distract this thread again. I'm not the issue: Abduallah's residency is.

2007-08-14T14:54:00.000-05:00

Wilson, do you ever get tired of being the Democrats dirty little lackey that they won't associate with in public? There's words for people like you, but I have a hunch Gary would delete my post if I called you them.

2007-08-14T14:24:00.000-05:00

The Democrats don;t care if you live in the district as long as you agree to go along with the program, or don't get caught.

Ask Carl Drummer. He used Julia Carson address in a special election to get the Center Township Trustee's office and he was a Lawrence Township resident.

Where does Andre Carson live? He shall have resided 2 years in the district prior to taking office.

mr. wilson (whoever you are), your point?

ok, so you have been waiting over a year to figure out what office to put on this place holder site.

so, since you appear to be the webmaster but have not taken the time to keep it updated, what are his intentions? what are his qualifications?

oh what a tangled web.
