The election law should be changed. If a person drops out then the third candidate should be in the runoff, the election requires 50% plus one. Chico at this point has 37%. That is not representing the majority.

So how much was the payoff ?

Think of all the donor money and volunteer hours that went up in smoke as soon as Healy spilled the beans to Tom Moran of the Jersey Journal! And then to add salt to their wounds Healy's response the following day was, "I wasn't thinkin' to good."

I hope they all bow out like Meyers. If anything just to show their utter disdain for Healy's sabotaging of their campaigns.


I imagine they're a little scared, too. It's been a long time since they've had to stand up to scrutiny.

Team Fulop does not take anything for granted. We are going to work to get every single one of our candidates elected. Period.

But all the Ward B candidates are decent, honest, and talented people. Jerry Meyers, just like Esther Winter and Isaiah Gadsden, is a person of his word. To get off the ballot, you just need to ask the City Clerk BY MONDAY 5/20, to remove your name.

Even more importantly, I think Mr. Meyers is doing this not just because of the difficulties of continuing the race. On Tuesday the City overwhelmingly chose to go in a new direction. Many of Mayor Healy's supporters will genuinely want to support this and help make our new Mayor successful. Because it's best for the City, and we all care about Jersey City.

I tip my hat to Jerry Meyers, as well as to Esther and Chris, for having the courage to stand up and run, and the decency to run a pretty civil and clean race. It says a lot for the west side of Jersey City that the voters had four good choices. I am sure that each will be a significant part of helping to make the West Side the Best Side.

One: Gerry?s name is still on the ballot so he could win. (possible ingenious campaign ploy?)

Two: Chico has got to get the vote out for Fulop?s at-large candidates. (see above comment)

Trust no one! Especially Healy and Brennan!

Then there should still be a runoff between Ramchal and Eshter Winter.
