Today is a critical day as it is election day and if we really want to change how things operate here in The Bronx, it must begin with your vote.
You may think that your vote doesn’t matter but it does ESPECIALLY in local elections such as ours.
Up for grabs is the Bronx District Attorney’s seat as it has vacated in a very controversial and dirty deal by Robert Johnson who held the post for 25 years and waited until a deal was cut for him to become a judge with a hefty $300k a year salary and pension—$174k of which is actually salary (courtesy of our tax dollars).
With this last minute dirty deal, the corrupt and dirty Bronx Democratic machine slipped in their puppet, Darcel Clark and circumventing the democratic process by not allowing the people to send one for her in a primary to actually get this far.
In an act of defiance, many Bronx Democrats are voting for the Republican candidate, Robert D. Siano.
Johnson’s post is all but a done deal as you do not have to vote for him and in fact, if you want an end to the corruption here in The Bronx then it is imperative you send a strong signal to the party bosses and DO NOT VOTE FOR ROBERT JOHNSON. ANYONE BUT JOHNSON!
So get out and vote today as polls close at 9pm. It may not be as glamorous of an election since it’s not a mayoral or councilmember election but it’s important nevertheless.
We cannot allow someone considered the WORST DA in the city to become a judge. Change begins with US!
