To The Editor: Reviewing more documents I received from the County Board of Elections, it seems the BOE and Prosecutor’s Office have engaged in a conspiracy to deny people their civil right to fair elections. Two relatives of Mayor Ernie Troiano’s voter profiles show one had not voted in Cape May County since May 11, 1999. On March 29, 2007, he submitted an address change from North Wildwood to the 100 block of West Leaming Avenue and voted in the May 8, 2007 Municipal Election. Records show another relative on March 29, 2007, registered a change of address to the 100 block of West Leaming Avenue and voted in the May 8, 2007 Municipal Election where their relative, Mayor Ernest Troiano, Jr., and Commissioner William Davenport were elected by a close margin. Following is the Board of Election’s investigation notations on file (but with the names of the two relatives blanked out): “An investigation was started by the Board of Elections on Aug. 8, 2008 when Melody and Joy went to the house, no one was home - went across the street - talked to Joan Troiano who is the mayor’s mother - she claims that (blank) and (blank) live across the street and have never lived in Florida - I ask her if she demanded her (blank) to come and vote for her son - she claims she would never do that - talked to the mayor and claims that’s not his mother’s style.” A list of all Wildwood registered voters printed on April 11, 2007, shows Mary E. Kirsch (owner of property) as the only person registered to vote from (real address blank) with a registration date of March 28, 2007. A list of all Wildwood registered voters printed on April 27, 2007, shows the two relatives and Mary E. Kirsch all registered from (real address blank). On official lists from the Board of Elections of those who voted in the May 8, 2007 Municipal Election which were printed on May 25, 2007, July 23, 2007 and Dec. 26/2007, one relative appears on all three lists; one relative appears only on the Dec. 26, 2007 list as having voted, and Mary E. Kirsch appears on none of the lists and doesn’t seem to have voted in the May 8, 2007 election despite registering to vote on March 28, 2007. On a list of all Wildwood registered voters printed by the Board of Elections on Oct. 2, 2009, it seems the two relatives and Mary E. Kirsch all have been deleted as registered voters in Wildwood. Missing from the records obtained under the Open Public Records Act (OPRA) are any voter registration applications or change of address applications for one relative and Mary E. Kirsch, and no voter profile for Mary E. Kirsch. This seems to be another example of a violation of our civil rights. If we want to be treated fairly and with respect in Wildwood, I believe voting ballot No. 4 and ballot No. 5 for Harshaw and Brannen is absolutely necessary. MICHAEL DELLAVELLA Wildwood

It seems to be fact with all this evidence coming out that Troiano and Davenport got re-elected in 2007 due to voter fraud. I believe the people are watching this time and will vote these two seemingly criminals out on December 8. Everyone needs to first vote yes to recall Troiano and then yes to recall Davenport. Then vote ballots #4 AND #5 for Harshaw and Brannen.

theSHADOW, please explain specifically what you feel is a lie in the above re: Mrs. Troiano. That portion of the letter is simply quoted from BOE documents.

The only people that would call Michael Dellavella a liar are those who are afraid of the truthful information that he is getting out there to the people. Mr. Dellavella in this article said nothing about Mrs. Troiano. He is merely quoting from voter records he received from the CMC Board of Election. Here is exactly what Mr. Dellavella quoted from the records in the above article. Of course, the relatives names and addresses were deleted.

“An investigation was started by the Board of Elections on Aug. 8, 2008 when Melody and Joy went to the house, no one was home - went across the street - talked to Joan Troiano who is the mayor’s mother - she claims that (blank) and (blank) live across the street and have never lived in Florida - I ask her if she demanded her (blank) to come and vote for her son - she claims she would never do that - talked to the mayor and claims that’s not his mother’s style.”

To Shadow, anyone who is afraid of the truth or facts being put out to the people like Mr. Dellavella has been doing must have something to hide.

Vote December 8th Yes to Recall Troiano and Davenport. Then vote ballot #4 and ballot #5 for Brannen and Harshaw. Let's take our town back.

shad
What part is a lie?
That two relatives of Troiano, and Mrs Kirsch register on the same date, from the same address?

The official list of participating voters from the 5-8-2007 election is printed 3X’s after the election and the list removes voters?
The only ones who can manipulate that list are the BOE themselves. So the two Troiano relative’s votes counted in the election however someone in the BOE doesn’t want you to see them on the list anymore….
It is not who is lying here but why is the BOE trying so hard to cover up for Troiano……WHY FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHY.......

Mrs Kirsch never votes even though she took the time to regester?

Now in 2009 all three are no longer on the voter registration list?

I don’t see Mike DellaVella the one lying here since he is only reporting on OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS FROM THE BOE, YET THEY SEEM TO CHANGE WITH THE WIND…….

Thank you again Mike for pointing out yet another deception perpetrated by the Troiano team….

Suspiciously the names of the Troiano relatives are not being printed in this article however Mrs Kirsch and many other have been, did Mike withhold them or did Troiano get to the paper?????? Just food for thought

LIES LIES LIES.....DeMarzo dictates and Dellavella writes and signs.....ANYONE....AND THAT IS ANYONE....KNOWS THAT MRS. TROIANO WOULD NEVER ACT IN THAT MANNER. MR. AND MRS TROIANO HAVE BEEN OUTSTANDING AND CONTRIBUTING MEMBERS TO THE CITY OF WILDWOOD THEIR WHOLE ADULT LIVES....something the likes of DeMarzo and hIs cronies wouldn't understand!. DELLAVELLA LIES

Seems to be more evidence of voter fraud pointing the finger at Mayor Troiano being involved? How much money would have the Wildwood taxpayers saved if Mayor Troiano wasn't seemingly re-elected on 5/8/07? He and Davenport approved bond ordinances (loans on the backs of the taxpayers) totalling $9.8 million in June of 2007 alone.
Vote yes to recall Davenport and Troiano on December 8. Then vote for Brannen and Harshaw, two honest, intelligent men with no ulterior motives other than trying to help the taxpayers clean up their town and lower taxes.
