Nancy Cardone’s Lies About Moving our BOE Elections are Worse than You Thought…

Nancy Cardone took tens of thousands of your tax dollars that were earmarked for “education” to move our BOE Elections from November to April.  She did this shortly after her two running mates were defeated.  That showed clear motive.  It was 100% politically motivated. It was all about Nancy’s thirst to retain power at any expense.

Nancy Cardone used dishonest hack, Matthew Giacobbe, to draw up a Resolution stating that the move was for “purposes of achieving greater efficiency in voter turnout.”  An article by Kristi Cattafi and Megan Burrow quickly debunked that claim.  Link to article below: 

Lodi moves school elections back to April. Here's what changes (northjersey.com)

Here are two more items to add to the list of Nancy Cardone lies:

Lie:  Nancy Cardone said she was moving the Election to let people vote on the School Budget.

Truth:  The Lodi voters will NOT be voting on the school budget.

Lie:  Nancy Cardone and Matthew Giacobbe spoke of efficiency in voter turnout.

Truth:  Nancy Cardone cut our Election Day voting hours from 6 AM- 8 PM to 2 PM- 8 PM.  She cut our voting day from 14 hours to 6 hours.  Nancy Cardone took away our opportunity and access to County run Early Voting Sites.  I had been voting in Garfield on a Sunday for the last few Lodi BOE Elections held in November.  Nancy Cardone removed that option.

Nancy Cardone and her five board puppets took our tax money to limit our access to vote.   They are using our tax dollars to work against us.

The Lodi Board of Education did not budget for an additional Election.  That means Nancy Cardone took money that should have been going into the classrooms to pursue her desire for power and control.

That is NOT someone that cares about students.  That is someone consumed with herself.

The only recourse for the Lodi taxpayers that were deceived and defrauded by Nancy Cardone and Matthew Giacobbe is to make sure you vote in this Board race and make sure you soundly reject Nancy Cardone’s newest hand puppets.

You must elect people that properly use public funds for education and not for corrupting our Elections with voter suppression.

Last Year, Nancy Cardone Lost 2 Board Seats and Pled Guilty to Serious Ethics Violations. So, Nancy Cardone Changed Her Group's Name. Again.

Reminder: not one Cardone BOE member has shown any independence on anything. They have rubber-stamped everything bad in unison.

One Week Has Passed and Not One Member of "Cannizzaro's Voices" Has Condemned John Cannizzaro's Call For Higher Taxes While Insulting the Most Overtaxed Community...

Link to video:

At this point, any condemnation or apology would be too late. "Cannizzaro's Voices" are not independent.  Their silence is an endorsement of the statements made by their campaign treasurer.

Tony Luna Retired in 2015. He Claims He Was Borough Manager for 11 Years. The Lodi Taxpayers are Still Making Monthly Payments for His Health Insurance 9 Years After Retirement.


Lodi Mayor Scott Luna's Father, Tony Luna, was secretly handed a "lifetime benefit" not available to current Lodi retirees. The Lodi Mayor and Council acknowledge that Tony Luna never met 25 years of employment by the Borough of Lodi.  

The Lodi Mayor and Council hid Tony Luna's health insurance payments from the public by not listing them on the monthly bills with other special "lifetime" health insurance recipients like Debra Ciliento, Judy Paladino, etc.

Linked below is a 2023 document showing the Borough of Lodi making payments every month for Tony Luna:

Daniel E. Cody Used His Appointed Position as "Housing Commissioner" to Create a New Title and Position for His Son....

Dan Cody's pay for a two week period in February was $3,461.54.  That would translate to an annual salary of $83,076.96.

Dan really knows how to play the system and use Lodi politics to cash in.

John Cannizzaro Should Disclose if His Property Taxes Have Been Frozen (as a 76 Year Old Senior) as He Pushes to Raise Taxes on Others. He Should Also Disclose How Much He Pays in Property Taxes and What Percentage That is of His Annual Income. This Way, Lodi Voters Can Compare His Situation to That of the Median Lodi Taxpayer.


Lodi BOE Member John Cannizzaro

If John Cannizzaro weren’t such a hypocrite, he would take it upon himself to pay more in Lodi school taxes.  There is nothing preventing him from paying more than his tax bill requires.  In fact, I think it would be a noble idea for him to donate his public pension to Lodi’s school tax levy.  There is no law preventing it.  As of 2021, he was receiving an annual pension payment of $59,381.52 for his employment in the Lodi schools in which he retired in 2006.  It’s time for John Cannizzaro to pay his fair share.  These phony tax and spend liberals (and in Lodi’s case: tax and steal liberals) love spending others money but never their own.  John Cannizzaro has been getting away with murder his entire life.







The Cardone Lunatics on the Lodi Board of Education Use to Express Their Vitriol and Disdain for the Hardworking Lodi Taxpayers in Closed Session Meetings Behind the Public’s Back. John Cannizarro Just Came Out and Did It Publicly.

 



Link to a video that every Lodi voter must see and share:

Citizens Against Corruption | Facebook

Every Lodi homeowner must see this video and do everything possible to soundly defeat John Cannizzaro’s candidates this April.  Cannizzaro's will further destroy Lodi by making it even more unaffordable.

Every Lodi renter must see this video and do everything possible to defeat John Cannizzaro’s candidates this April.  Renters are often the ones suffering the most from unfair tax hikes. They have seen their rents soar in recent years. With this nation’s horrible inflation, Lodi homeowners are struggling with their mortgages.  When they struggle, renters suffer.

John Cannizzaro is too mentally unfit and unstable to understand a $92,000,000 budget. 

The Lodi mayor and council endorsed John Canizzaro for Lodi BOE.  They have been silent in wake of this outrageous public spectacle.  Their silence is an endorsement of John Cannizzaro’s attack on the Lodi taxpayers.  They should be ashamed.

Karen Viscana has always used John Cannizzaro as her useful idiot.  She supports his attacks on the Lodi taxpayers.

Nancy Cardone handpicked John Cannizzaro and controls his votes.  She feels the same as John Canizzaro but just expresses her disdain for the Lodi taxpayers in closed sessions.

John Cannizzaro’s candidates have been silent on their treasurer’s outrageous statements and behavior.  But what else would you expect from any hand puppets that chose to run for the "TAX and STEAL" team?

John Cannizzaro: “The Lodi taxpayers have been getting away with murder for many years.”

Really?  Some past news articles on the subject:


 









"New Voices" is the Same Old Voice. It's a Nails Across the Chalkboard Voice. It's Nancy Cardone's Voice. It's John Cannizzaro's Voice.

 


John Cannizzaro speaks for his candidates.  He said the Lodi taxpayers need to pay more and that they have been getting away with murder for years.

Any candidate listing John Cannizzaro as their treasurer is unfit for any office.  You cannot use any worse judgment.

In 2019, Nancy Cardone Sent Out a Campaign Mailer Insulting Board Members that Worked Very Hard to Reduce Lodi Taxes.

 

Above is taken from an October 2019 campaign mailer from Nancy Cardone. Paid by the NJEA and Bill Nunno.


Since 2019, the increases in State Aid for the Lodi Schools have been twofold and threefold the increases written about by Nancy Cardone. Yet, Nancy Cardone hasn't lowered taxes once.  In fact, she is working very hard to increase taxes tomorrow night.

If, according to Nancy, the increases in State Aid were solely credited for the tax reductions for Lodi from 2017 thru 2019, why haven't Lodi school taxes been reduced once since 2019?  Can Nancy explain?

Nancy Cardone will tell any lie, mislead, and deceive any chance she gets.

Nancy Cardone is a very disrespectful person but she is especially disrespectful to the Lodi taxpayers.  She has pure disdain for all working class people and anyone that earns an honest living. She works very hard to hurt the very people paying her family's salaries.

How can anyone vote to raise taxes with the millions of additional State Aid pouring in?

Nancy Cardone would rather burn millions of dollars on her family's excessive raises, extremely overpaid interims (that don't show up to work but spew a lot of dishonest spending propaganda), moving elections to suppress voter turnout, Matthew Giacobbe, and other nonsense before anything is given back to the Lodi tax taxpayers. 

From 2017 thru 2019, new projects were funded and there were large surpluses while taxes were reduced. Budgets were still greatly padded even with the tax reductions.

Unfortunately, the current board majority is led by a self-serving politician that uses our Board of Education to secure millions in compensation for her family. And that is the real reason why Lodi taxes have not been reduced.

Election Coverage on "Real America's Voice" is s A Lot Better than Fox News and Newsmax...

Both Fox News and Newsmax lost credibility after pushing dangerous vaccines and hiding election fraud. Both are controlled by their corporate sponsors.

"Real America's Voice" is available on Pluto TV and has a lot of good shows.
