In Recent Weeks, There Were Many News Stories about a Required Public Hearing in Newark to Alter an Unexpired Superintendent's Contract...
Has PRIDE Candidate Mark Anthony DelMonaco's Wife or Her Associates Ever Received any Payments from Lodi for Her "Business" and Why Hasn't the Appointed Councilman Listed the "Business" on His Financial Disclosure Statement?
Is anyone appearing on the monthly Borough bills or employed by the Borough making payments to DelMonaco's wife? Will the DelMonacos be transparent and open up their books to show the public their income before DelMonaco was appointed to the council versus after? Are there any books? Is there any reported income? All Lodi voters should demand answers and transparency before November 4th.
Too Many Lying Politicians for One Photo...

August 2025 Bills for the Lodi Board of Education...
Link to August Bills:

Just on page 1, you see Lodi tax dollars in the amount of $22,757.58 going towards Nancy Cardone's April Elections to suppress voter turnout, one of Cleary Giacobbe's multiple bills on this set ($11,939.50) for a politician run firm that pays board members for its public contracts and $3,600.00 to Laura Bishop for "public relations"-to tell the Lodi taxpayers not to believe their lying eyes.
The Lodi BOE Approved a Starting Salary of $225,000 for Its Next Business Administrator Who Has Yet to Demonstrate His Worth to Lodi. Seems Excessive for a Town Facing Tax Increases and Uncertainty Over Future State Aid.

Mary Amoroso, Thomas Sullivan, and Germaine Ortiz Deserve to Be Thrown Out of Office this November for Making a Prostitution/Cocaine Peddler a Supervisor at the Bergen County Juvenile Detention…
Whether you are a Democrat, Republican, or Unaffiliated voter, you should not want someone involved in prostitution/cocaine businesses supervising Juvenile Detention.
James Tedesco and his Democrat Commissioners employed
Vinny Martin during this bust:

Matthew Giaccobe Has Been Giving Money to BOE Candidates During the Term of His Contract. A "Reportable Individual Contribution" is Now Defined as Over $200 so Look at What Matthew Giaccobe and His Managing Partners Did in Middletown...
Some BOE members and many government watchdogs throughout New Jersey are pointing out how Cleary Giaccobe drives up legal costs yet provides worse service than previous board attorneys. They don't understand how the firm is all over the State getting BOE contracts.
It's more than obvious that Matthew Giaccobe is paying BOE members for his contracts and is never held accountable for poor performance due to those payments.
Matthew Giaccobe's reported pay-to-play abuses in other districts like Middletown should leave Lodi residents asking: how much has this firm poured in to the Nancy Cardone campaigns in recent years where a lot of money was spent without listing contributors?
Taxpayers throughout New Jersey should demand that all BOE members awarding contracts to Giaccobe disclose how much they sold out for.
As Hudson County Prosecutor, What Did Ester Suarez Do About Vinny Martin's Prostitution/Cocaine Business? Apparently, Nothing.
The reported prostitution and drug busts at Vinny Martin's Secaucus "business" went on for years before the State's ABC moved to revoke Vinny Martin's liquor license.
https://lodioverhaul.blogspot.com/2025/07/lodi-deputy-mayor-vincent-martin-has.html
Secaucus is in Hudson County. Where was Ester Suarez
during all of this? How come her office never charged the owners with anything?
Did Joseph Lagana act in any way to protect Vinny Martin?

Where's "Woobsie's"?

One day later, the appointed Lodi councilman, Mark Anthony Delmonaco,(handpicked by Vinny Martin and Donald Scorzetti) submitted his required financial disclosure statement:
The disclosure is dishonest.

Matthew Giacobbe and Joseph Lagana Announce a New Law Partner...
This is how the far-left Star-Ledger described her not
too long ago:
Matthew Giaccobe was the law partner of Joe Ferriero at the time of Ferriero's indictment and conviction. They were all part of the same pay-to-play, influence-peddling circle. Link to past post:

As Soon as Lodi’s State Senator Joseph Lagana Joined the Matthew Giacobbe Firm, He Was Used to Sell Access to Other State Senators….
An email chain released by “opramachine” for the period beginning 2020 shows that Joseph Lagana and the principal partners in his firm were spending their time arranging for their client, Stephen Sacco of the Monmouth JIF, to meet with State Senator Vin Gopal. The chain begins:
The chain ends:
Link to an online OPRA response:You would hope that law firms receiving public
contracts would spend their time providing legal services to benefit the taxpayers
footing the bill. Unfortunately, this
firm appears to be receiving public contracts to sell access and peddle
influence. The email chain speaks
for itself.
Matthew Giacobbe spent a lot of time at a Lodi BOE
meeting whining about these posts:
