Who is the authority we can appeal to that would levy fines & punishments to candidates who have littered? I am serious. We should force whichever city entity is "responsible" to confront the issue--even if their response is to do nothing--at least they will be doing nothing in the face of an active community. And I know it might be the Incinerator Authority (and that McCann is a paid employee). All the better for attracting the news vans.

FedUp - Great idea! Great list! I changed yours a little bit and added a couple of my own.

EVERYONE should do this and PASTE IT TO YOUR FACEBOOK STATUS until the election!


1. As a convicted felon in a bank fraud case he should not be anywhere near a 630 million dollar budget let alone the children of this city.

2. As a school board member he pushed through a no bid contract for the accounting firm he used to work for.

3. He had the school board pay his personal attorney over $50,000 so he could defend his right to serve on the school board even though he was a convicted felon.

4. He has gotten friends and McCann loyalists jobs at the BOE.
One was fired from his last job for drug use.

5. During his time as mayor he tried to suppress the minority
vote by having an elevator cable cut in the housing projects.

6. As mayor he stationed uniformed police outside all polling
stations in minority area's to suppress the vote.

7. After losing the mayoral election of 1985 he glued all the locks in city hall and defecated on his desk before he left.

8. He has repeatedly trolled nursing homes and coerced seniors into voting absentee for him which is illegal. He is so good at manipulating the elders and infirm that he has been hired by other politicians to help them do it.

9. We are sick of politicians blaming teacher?s salaries for citizen?s financial woes when it is the POLITICIANS and BANKERS who bear the vast majority of blame.

10. He has no real interest in education and only serves on the school board because as a convicted felon that is ironically the only political position he can hold to further his own financial interests, political power, and ego.

Why don't you grow a set and tell us all who you are along with backing all the trash that your stating in your comments with factual reference points?
Until then your a Troll who finds pleasure in slandering people. what a life, I mean you should get one!!!

Great idea, fedup07302.
We need to make a list and promote a calling campaign. My only question is the legality of calling private facilities. Anyone know whether this could be considered harassment?

We should call the nursing homes. We should also formally call whatever entity regulates elections and lodge complaints. We should contact the campaigns running against him and we should hire whoever was able to beat him in Rutherford to head up a public awareness campaign revealing McCann for who he is.
He obviously has a powerful contingency of people "confused" about ethics and morality. These folks are able to provide him access to absentee ballots of the elderly and infirm, and are willing to get up on soup boxes & public forums to defend & support grotesque criminal behavior.

I realize that most of the Council members are obliged to maintain the status quo on behalf of the HCDO. But this is why I was happy when Fulop was re-elected, I hoped he would get some fresh, practical ideas through. That is what a skilled legislator does. Instead he suggests things like cutting the health benefits for the City Council, something he knows will not pass, but that will get his name in the paper. Cutting health benefits to the Council members really doesn?t save the city that much money and only serves to waste time and energy that could go towards sincerely tackling our problem. In order to better position himself for a Mayoral race he is sacrificing effective action that we desperately need NOW.

Interesting take - and a first-time poster no less. Let's take a step back - you say Fulop is introducing things that won't pass. Yet the mayor has tried to hitch his wagon twice to Fulop proposals - recognizing that things like eliminating benefits to the JCIA and MUA board members and getting rid of cars when they aren't warranted are good ideas. Of course the mayor is too compromised to do these things in a meaningful way, so he goes in for 20%. Nonetheless - still a recognition that the idea is sound. No matter, the bought and paid for voted both versions down.

Not doing his job? Really? Let's take the other eight members of the council and add up all of the cost cutting legislation they've proposed. [crickets] Nothing. Not one proposal to save one dollar. How can you possibly be okay that "most of the Council members are obliged to maintain the status quo on behalf of the HCDO" and yet waste time creating false arguments about Fulop?? Council members are obliged to represent their constituents and nothing else. If you look back to last May, you'll find that the voters of Ward E are very happy with their councilman. Happier than any other ward in the city.
