the burg watch poll results

Posted on by

the burg watch poll has not been compromised, despite suggestions to the contrary. Mayoral Candidate Aldo DiCarlo is still in the lead with 45.73% and for some time the results have been consistent.

the number of votes so far: Mayor 234, Deputy Mayor 206, Councillor 787.

there have never been any scientific claims regarding this poll; it was set up to allow anxious voters to have an opportunity to cast a ballot while waiting to ‘officially’ vote. as reported by Mary Caton in The Windsor Star, a higher than expected amount of residents showed up at the advance polls.

kudos to those who have exercised their right to vote; it’s how we effect change in a democratic society.

two days to go – make it happen!

Aldo DiCarlo’s Comment On No Commitment To Remove OPP Clause In Police Contract

Posted on by

In response to the Commentary, “No Commitment To Remove OPP Clause In Police Contract,” Aldo DiCarlo’s comment is:

This is an issue that I have spent a considerable amount of time on, specifically because of the large potential savings, $1M or more. At last night’s debate, Deputy Mayor Suttherland stated that an OPP costing takes at least 18 months. As a taxpaying resident, not a just a mayoral candidate, this both angers and frustrates me. If it does indeed take this amount of time, why then did not a single council member make the motion to request the OPP costing. If one of them did, I would like to know who and why it was voted down. ALL contracts have an expiry date. Did a single one of the current council members do their due diligence in requesting an OPP costing early enough so that we could have reviewed our options now that the contract is being negotiated? I believe the answer is no, and I’d be happy to be wrong.

Aldo DiCarlo On The Use Of The Burg Watch Answers

Question: This is not so much a question but a commentary I guess.  After researching websites for campaign issues, I was directed to the mayoral candidate’s Facebook page who chose not to participate in answering theburgwatch.  I have no issue with not answering, that’s a personal choice.  What I do have issue with is them reading all of the candidate’s answers, taking them out of context, and then manipulating them to a perspective that implies incompetence.  Perhaps it is a desperate attempt to steal votes or perhaps that’s who they are.  Either way, hopefully the voters will question that interpretation before making a judgement.

Aldo DiCarlo Comments On ACRG Meet The Candidates

Thank you to the organizers for the opportunity. If this event did not occur, I don’t think I would have had the opportunity to reach out to so many people at once. I apologize to anyone I didn’t have the opportunity to speak to, due to the number of voters engaging me at once. Win or lose, I would attend this event in the future if it is repeated in the next election.
Sincerely,
Aldo DiCarlo

CKLW reports that “at the time he entered the race, there was no alternative to the ‘status quo’.  But he says that changed on the final day of nominations when Aldo DiCarlo entered the race.

Adler says he has researched DiCarlo’s campaign and believes there is now a more viable candidate for the mayor of Amherstburg.”
