Why I voted for Don Scipione as County Executive

Submitted by lmcshane on Tue, 10/05/2010 - 13:33.

I voted Green for David Ellison* in the primary and I voted Independent in the General Election.  Here's why--Don Scipione has the means (technology) to provide ACCOUNTABILITY to residents in Cuyahoga County. 

You pay taxes, you want to see that those tax dollars $$$$ are spent in your neighborhood--to fix your streets, sewers and critical water infrastructure. 

This is TODAY--a water main rupture on Archwood:

This is TODAY--a busy intersection at Pearl Rd. and Willowdale, across from a shopping plaza, less than a mile from Metrohealth Hospital, across from a library--an intersection where hundreds of people cross every day--CHILDREN, the elderly and mothers with strollers--- and where thousands of cars blow throw the streetlight as if it was not even there.

This is why I mailed in my ballot today (thank you Jennifer Brunner) and voted for Don Scipione for County Executive.

 * (I desperately want to see more than one party choice in the United States.  I respect David Ellison for working to upset the two-party system in America.  My primary vote came with the moral dilemma of not voting for Dianna Hill, who is equally as passionate about representing the disenfranchised in NEO.  I know she understands that voting dilemma :)

This is the reality we in the city live with every day.  I ride the buses in this city--overcrowded because of the cuts made at RTA.  Roads are crumbling, bridges will collapse, water lines are rusted out and the City of Cleveland continues to add "new" development to antiquated combined sanitary sewers, in complete violation of the Clean Water Act.

Don Scipione is truly someone who deserves your utmost consideration....not only does he have insight far beyond the average person-but he has the ability to communicate well his intentions, his plans, and his considerations for the people while working to execute those plans in a very courageous way that intimidates most of the regime.... so, if you want change, have faith in someone who truly sees far beyond the corruption-someone who cares deeply about the people's needs, and someone who has been fighting for change along with all the rest of us since day one!!! Elect Don Scipione...

Don Scipione amazes me with his big picture understanding and his articulation of issues regarding the IT industry specifically... IT drives accountability, reduces costs of doing business, and tracks everything...he's the only candidate who has a complete understanding of these items in a fundamentally simple manner of translation for all the rest of us.

Don's ideas are absolutely awesome and would SAVE OUR TAXPAYERS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS while reallocating those saved dollars into the basics that we want help with including: IMPROVING OUR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM, REDUCING WASTEFUL SPENDING, PROVIDING TRANSPARENCY, AND MOVING OUR COUNTY INTO AN INTEGRAL FUTURE THAT INSPIRES OUR PEOPLE AT LARGE WITH OPPORTUNITIES BEYOND OUR WILDEST DREAMS. DON CARES DEEPLY ABOUT OUR COUNTY, OUR PEOPLE, AND THE FUTURE OF OUR REGION. HE IS BASED IN REALITY, FACTS, AND HIS VISION OF OUR FUTURE IS BRIGHT.

DON SCIPIONE TREATS PEOPLE WITH RESPECT, TALKS TO PEOPLE LIKE NORMAL HUMAN BEINGS, AND HE TAKES INTO CONSIDERATION ALL OF THE DYNAMICS OF THE PROBLEMS, RESPECTST THE SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS AND KNOWS HOW TO PUT A TEAM TOGETHER TO REACT TO THE BUSINESS AT HAND... HE IS A DEMOCRATIC LEADER WITH THE ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND HE'S FIGHTING A REGIME OF CORRUPTION... HE IS FIRM, FAIR, AND FINALLY ON OUR BALLOTS.... SO, DON'T FORGET ABOUT DON IN THE UPCOMING ELECTION ON NOVEMBER 2ND...

IF YOU HAVEN'T VOTED IN YEARS, PLEASE MAKE TIME, MARK YOUR CALENDARS AND GET OUT TO VOTE....OUR PEOPLE NEED YOUR VOTE SO THAT WE CAN FINISH THE CHANGES AND REFORM NECESSARY TO REBUILD AND REVITALIZE OUR COMMUNITY AT LARGE FROM GENERATIONS OF CORRUPTION!!!! 

 

VOTE FOR DON SCIPIONE....

TAKE THE TIME TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE FOR THE PUBLIC AT LARGE.... GO OUT AND VOTE.... CALL YOUR FRIENDS, FAMILY, AND EVERYONE....SPARK UP CONVERSTATIONS WITH THOSE WHO ARE PISSED OFF AND REMIND THEM THAT THIS IS THEIR CHANCE TO MAKE A POSITIVE DIFFERENCE BY ELECTING DON SCIPIONE FOR CHANGE! 

(KISS=KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID)
