Hammonton Democratic Team gains valuable union endorsement
Permalink   
 


The Central Labor Council announced that they would endorse the entire Hammonton Democratic ticket in this years election.

 

            The endorsement was facilitated by Democratic Town Council candidate Jim Scarpato, who has been a member of the Local 54 for nearly twenty years, and who also received the endorsement from the NJ American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO).

 

Scarpato said I worked hard for this endorsement because I believe that union support is essential for preparing all Hammontonians for tomorrows challenges.

 

Mike Ammirato, Democratic candidate for Town Council, also expressed his enthusiasm for the endorsement. This is a great opportunity to revive union involvement in our town, he said, Im excited to work with the Central Labor Council to ensure that Hammontons workers are treated fairly in the workplace.

 

Carmen Villani, the third Democratic candidate for Town Council, mirrored the other candidates support for the unions endorsement. He said, Being on a ticket with James Scarpato, a longtime member of the Local 54, is a huge honor. Now, with the Central Labor Councils endorsement, Im eagerly anticipating the day when the Hammonton Democratic ticket can begin working in earnest to better the lives of all Hammontonians.

 

Joe Ingemi, Democratic candidate for Mayor of Hammonton, released a statement saying, I am honored that the Hammonton Democratic ticket has received the endorsement of the Central Labor Council. For Hammonton to prosper in a 21st century global economy, our workforce must have the skills necessary to compete. When elected, my running mates and I will work with our local unions to ensure that our community has the opportunity for training and development.

 

            The Hammonton Democratic ticket; Joe Ingemi for Mayor and Mike Ammirato, Jim Scarpato, and Carmen Villani for Town Council, are running this year on a platform that emphasizes economic development, smarter spending and greater government accountability. For more information on the candidates and their platform, visit www.hammontondems.org.

You are dreaming. The GOP candidates in every South Jersey town will get a very large plurality because Jon Corzine has been a terrible governor for New Jersey, especially South Jersey.

Marino, Goff, Carpo and Brita have been going door to door 4 nights a week actually talking to the voters.

The Dems are on their way to victory. HF showed us how they can screw up our town and put our town in a severe financial hardship that's why they had to lay off workers - everyone is talking about it. The Reps proved that they coward down to HF they vote with them every time. HF Reps and Reg Reps are one of the same! Everyone needs to vote for the Democrats. We need a change for the better.

If the Republican ticket comes to my neighborhood, just about everyone in my street would say when are they going to speak up.  Why should I have to wait until after election day?   Why are they so afraid of HF.  We already know the Democratic ticket is the only ticket that has a plataform is not afraid to vote for the people of Hammonton on town council and cave in to HF's Me First attitude.

 The Democrats ae running the worst personal attack campaign in town history with Rich Jacobus and Joe Ingemi scum-letters every week.  They will crawl out of their phone booth the day after the election and bve shocked that they finished last again this year.  They just don't get that you cannot behave like this.

It seems our opponents have resorted to lies and deceit to try and sway some voters, They have accused us of negative tactics, when nothing can be further from the truth.
The Hammonton Democrats have put out a very comprehensive platform that will put Hammonton in a great direction for future development, Prosperity, and lower taxes. We have been touching on all of the issues important to Hammonton residents in our letters to the editor and Press Releases. We have been asking important questions of our Mayor and Council regarding many issues relevant to the town and it's taxpayers.
If telling the truth, searching out information, and planning for a great future for Hammonton is negative, then we plead guilty.

Jim,

Can you point to one time the Democrats at any level lowered taxes?

At the Federal Level?
At the State Level?
At the Local Level?

Democrats have never lowered taxes at any level. Talk is cheap but if the average voter is to believe Democrats will reduce taxes, you should provide some proof where it has been done in the past.

The Democrats also never put us 45 million dollars in debt, cut services, wasted millions on senseless projects, laid off town workers, give the solicitor a $10,000 a year raised for no apparent reason and increase his hourly rate and didn't listen to the taxpayers like HF. Explain that! I bet you will be silent now.

You can keep bringing up the past all you want. The present team of Joe Ingemi, Mike Ammirato, Jim Scarpato, and Carmen Villani are ready to move Hammonton forward and into the future with their plans.

The sign near the GOP headquarters says it all. The GOP team can manage a budget properly, keep taxes low, and not run up the debt.

These girls look like winners to me. That billboard look like Charlie with his three Angels to the rescue, a modern day mod squad.

Charlie's Angels -------Pistols Packeting Chicks righting the wrongs of Hammonton.

Are you saying that Marino looks like a telephone speaker?  Charlie was never seen.  We need a mayor who not only will be seen but not duck direct questions.  So if Marino is just going to speak and not be seen and depend on others to do his bidding without doing anything then I say Sorry Charlie!

I have to post this statement here because Chenzo has me blocked. I guess he got his orders from HF only to post their bashing entries and delete anyone who is against HF and/or  in favor of the Democrats. Whatever happened to our 5th amendment right? Wow what a bunch of kitties!
9/24  1:59 hey firster what we have in office now is the scum of the earth. HF believes in taking from the poor and giving to the rich. They have already proved that! As far as slime HF has that slime paper in Hammonton you know the one who can't tell the truth or get the facts straight to do all their dirty talk and trash innocent people. If HF can't handle the truth then why are they running for public office? If HF has a clean record then what are you worried about? If they have something to hide then be prepared for what will come out in the next few weeks. You might want to ask your doctor to prescribe some pain killers for you. This is my opinion of which I am entitled to under the constitution... sorry Chenzo they can silence you but not me!!

The Republicans say they are strong but they have always voted in the shadows of HF. With all the wrong HF did they only questioned it after they voted along with HF... you are suppose to question things before you vote for them. The Reps coward down to HF they are not leaders. The Dems are leaders not cowards they aren't afraid to challenge HF on all their wrong doings. Even HF runs and hides when you try to ask them questions... what does that tell you. If you are not wrong and have nothing to hide you stand your ground. In all these postings HF refuses to talk about layoffs, huge salary increases for family and friends, hiring 18 people during a hiring freeze,  cost of town hall, cost of lake park, stockton, dirt from the airport, water and sewer to the bowling alley etc.........Notice the Reps are silent because they agree with everything HF says and does. YOU NEED TO VOTE DEMOCRAT TO SAVE OUR TOWN!

I hope no one is going to the lake house open house this saturday. Our hard earned tax dollars were spent foolishly on this collapsing building. Councilman Barberio ruined our park because he is not from Hammonton and doesn't care about the Hammonton people. Thanks Jerry for ruining the only recreational park in our town. Why don't you turn Central Park into a parking lot, I'm sure the New Yorkers would just love that - they would run you out of the city. The Democrats never would have let this happen.

Steve when are you going to start laying off school employees? Your brother laid off town employees and claimed that's what the public wanted. What's the matter with you? The school employs hundreds of more employees than the town, let's see you start with 50 lay offs. Show us you care about the taxpayers just like your brother claims to do. Layoff employees at the school now! We want layoffs at the school. We want people to lose their jobs at the school because they are in the same category as town employees - over paid and under worked RIGHT?

This sums it all up.  The Demcrats campaign is based on nasty personal attacks and pithy phrases.

All Steve does is run his mouth and help out his party with school money. I can't wait until Steve debates, he can't get two sentences out , unless you know who is pulling his strings.

Yep more like Bosley, that means he won't lead this town but well connected families can just call in on the phone and he'll have the rest of his party follow their orders.  He won't dare ask questions.

It really is amazing.  The Dems can't even seem to help themselves.  They have gotten so negative that they don't even realize how bad they have become.

So you are saying the truth is negative and lies are positive? That's like saying the town being in good financial shape is a negative and the books in red are positive? You must be dyslexic. What do you consider the multi million dollar senseless projects, layoffs, cutting all the trees down the lake, running water and sewer to the bowling alley, giving BH a $10,000 a year raise - are these positives or negatives to you? I'm sure you will avoid this question and start talking about the federal and state gov't or call this bashing. HF could never be anything other than local politicians because they won't answer questions asked of them by taxpayers!

How can we elect Steve as our next Mayor if he won't listen to the taxpayers and layoff school employees? Steve you must listen to the taxpayers we don't like school employees as much as we don't like town employees. Lay them off!

What I can't understand is why relatives are allowed to work side by side in town hall as well as in our public schools. Husbands and wives and sisters and brothers, parents and children. This is a conflict of interest! In most businesses they do not tolerate the hiring of relatives. Also if you are employee of the school or town your relatives should not be allowed to serve on the school board or on council. It is a conflict of interest. Also when a school board member or a teacher or administrator has children in the school system their children should be exempt from receiving scholarships again a conflict of interest. In order for our town and schools to run more efficiently these things should not be tolerated. Hopefully our federal gov't will mandate such standards that way our town doesn't have a choice but to comply.

We need change in Hammonton. The same families have controlled each faction of the Republican parties in town.  This is a small town so most people are related.  The only way to change things is to stop continuing to vote in Republicans or HF Republicans.

Silly HF already did that. The Mayor gave the police the largest raise in the history of Hammonton and gave the solicitor a $10,000 a year raise in addition to increasing his hourly rate. That's why they had to layoff 4 low paid employees cause they couldn't afford to pay them. HF goofed with the finances and now they don't know what to do.

You don'see one personal attack, negative statement, or pithy phrase that has been put here by any member of the Democratic campaign. You can try and link it to us, but this is an open blog that anyone can post on. You make thew assumption that it is Democrats, but you have absolutely no basis for that assumption.
