Farmer Clock times out again

by: Thurman Hart

Wed Dec 10, 2008 at 09:29:57 AM EST



So it appears that every two to three days, we'll have to go through this.  After resetting the Farmer Clock on Saturday, we had to restart it yesterday (Tuesday). Unfortunately for the multi-vetted Star-Ledger writers, it is not the fourth time that Manzo has run for mayor, but the fifth.

In 1992, he lost a special election to Bret Schundler in a 19 candidate free for all special election, which also included Manzo's own brother, who was the Jersey City Democratic Chair

In 1993, he lost a rematch in a regular election.

In 2001, he was beaten by Glenn Cunningham and Tom Degise, which went to a runoff before a Cunningham victory.

In 2004, he was beaten by Jerramiah Healy.

In fact, it appears that the only consistant part of Manzo's record is that he has lost an election to every (elected) mayor for the last seventeen years.  "Anyone but Manzo"?
