Title: Fourth Ward Councilperson
Post by: jay on May 05, 2010, 05:53:18 AM
If Carol Righetti is elected County Commissioner in November, who would be the likely person to be appointed to fill her unexpired term as fourth ward councilperson?

  Anyone that is from the 4th ward that is interested could write a letter asking to be considered to the Democrat Party. Then the precinct committee people would listen to the applicants and vote on the replacement. That person would have to run in the May  2011 primary. They would serve during the entire year of 2011. I don't know how the party endorsement would work.

i hope someone better then Anthony Catale that was the name i heard during the campaign and the individual has brains to think. i heard the president of ytown city council told a follower golfer that carol was the dumbest person on council he ever seen since his council tenure.  God help us all if catale is the replacement. he is supported by the Hanni's clan.

You clearly don't do your homework. Catale was at Carol's victory party. If he was a member of Hanni's clan why wasn't he supporting Ludt like Hanni like the Hanni clan was? Maybe a Hanni told you he/she likes Catale or something, I don't know , but I know Mr. Catale quite well and I can assure you he is not a 'member' of the Hanni clan.

By the way, Catale lives in the 5th ward. Therefore, I wonder if your 'rumor' is correct that he would be 4th ward councilman?

hammar as you well know politics makes strange bedfellows. aspiring politicians will use every possible means to obtain their goals in their political life. one can move into another ward by the beginning of next year. there are better qualified people to take reghetti's place and catale is not one of them. this saga has just started so hammar enjoy this political rollercoaster ride on this one. ;D

   I believe that you must be a resident of a ward six months before you qualify to run.

   IWASTHERE, since I have run for a council seat many times, why would you doubt that I was correct in my initial answer

A man named Ray is supposedly in the running to fill the unexpired term of the fourth ward councilwoman.
