Contributing to Corruption...




A new report appeared today on ELEC.  PRIDE only disclosed the names of five contributors.  PRIDE concealed the names of other contributors that gave $15,870 by clumping them in a category of $300 or less which is BS.


Here are the five contributors listed by PRIDE.


Neglia Engineering- $13,000 (maximum contribution limit)


Frank DiMaria- $2,600


Alan Spiniello- $2,500


Marc Veniero- $2,500


Lagana for Senate- $1,000


All five contributed prior to the election but PRIDE didn’t report the contributions until June 3, 2019 which is a clear violation ("Committee receiving a contribution in the excess of $1,600 in the aggregate from one source starting with the 13th day before the election up to, and including the day of the election (48- Hour Notice):




PRIDE didn’t report their expenditure for signs, Ads in the Community News, etc.


PRIDE took money from those receiving NO BID contracts with the town and paid themselves with the cash (loan payments).
