Surprise, surprise, surprise. It ain’t a politician or a political operative. It isn’t a party or a PAC. It wasn’t a union or former Miami Mayor Joe Carrollo who hired private investigator Joe Carrillo to follow a known boletera in Hialeah and, finally, open the Pandora’s Box of absentee ballot fraud that has permeated the […]
Even before the story in Thursday’s Miami Herald has her admitting that she went to see Deisy Cabrera the same day the boletera was popped by the Miami-Dade Police public corruption unit, Hialeah Councilwoman Vivian “I’ll Notarize That” Casals-Muñoz was up to her elbows in the absentee ballot fraud rampant in the City of Progress […]
Auto magnate Norman Braman and his sidekick gypsy conartist Vanessa Brito are two for two in their quest to control the county commission. But that’s okay because that means they don’t have a majority vote — even if they win the two runoffs in November, which is highly unlikely. This should be a loud and […]
More strangeness out of Tuesday’s election results revolve around the state house race in district 103, where the favored candidate with the name recognition was beaten almost too handily by the hand-picked puppet of the Hialeah hoodlum machinery tainted by the absentee ballot scandal. Ladra is looking at the lopsided results of the 103 race […]
Ladra smells a court challenge. Not only is there one candidate, backed by at least one employee union, but perhaps at least two candidates from Tuesday’s ballot considering a legal challenge to the election based on the evident absentee ballot fraud that may indicate wider electoral malfeasance. Commission Chairman Joe Martinez told Ladra before he […]
So, Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos “Golden Boy” Gimenez seems so proud of tainted his re-election victory with 54% of the vote in a race marked by the dark cloud of boleteros and possible absentee ballot fraud. But you know what? If the ABs are tossed out — as they should be — there would be a […]
While all the hoopla about racial profiling is centered on the baddest sheriff in the U.S.A. and his anti-immigrant “crime sweeps” in Arizona, there is wide-spread bias of another kind happening in our own Miami-Dade County. I’m talking about doggie discrimination. I’m talking about pooch profiling. I’m talking about the ridiculous and arbitrary ban on […]
One of the people watching the elections and the absentee ballot scandal in Hialeah with interest is former Miami-Dade Commissioner Natacha Seijas, who was recalled along with former Mayor Carlos Alvarez last year in an manipulated political maneuver piloted by a billionaire car dealer that wants to control the commission (more on that later) and […]
The war between the Diaz de la Portillas and practically all the Miami-Dade delegation just spread its battleground into the Miami Lakes city elections of this coming November. Former Sen. and soon-to-be State Rep. Again Alex Diaz de la Portilla, who is using his PAC to recall Miami-Dade Commissioner Esteban Bovo for his role in […]
Voters in the county’s 13th district will soon get an invitation to recall Miami-Dade Commissioner Esteban “El Bobo” Bovo in relation to his role in the absentee ballot fraud scandal centered around Hialeah and, now, his office — which is splashed all over the TV and newspaper headlines. “Enough already,” the mailer, which many will […]
