The Real Bergen Democrats slate of candidates scored some key victories tonight. In Bergenfeld, Timothy Driscoll - who two years ago had his signature forged on a resignation letter in an attempt to disqualify him from voting in a tight special election - defeated Dolores Butler, the candidate of the same people who tried to disenfranchise him.
His running mates - Barry Doll and Councilman Bruce Carlson - defeated BCDO candidates Carlos Aguasvivas and John Person.
In Ward 2 of Englewood, Council President Charlotte Bennett Schoen defeated BCDO candidate Marvin Anault.
In Fort Lee, Councilman Michael Villano - the Real Bergen Democrats mayoral candidate - lost to the current mayor Jack Alter.
Bergen County Sheriff Leo McGuire (BCDO) held on to his seat by defeating Allen Gailes, Jr (RBD).

"Y'all know my steelo" -> Nas
I am not sure how long this entry will be, so this is my essay topic:
Re-elect Charlotte Bennett Schoen for 2nd Ward Councilwoman in Englewood. Say no to Michael Wildes? puppets.
Vote Lieutenant Allen Gailes Jr., for Bergen County Sheriff. Say yes to diverse and independent government.
This is my conclusion:
Vote for the Real Bergen Democrats, Column 1. Vote for the Weinberg/Johnson/Huttle team.
Englewood Report Interviews Lt. Allen Gailes Jr.
Englewood Report Endorses Charlotte Bennett Schoen for Reelection
Bergen Grassroots Endorsements
Exhibit D: From noon to 8pm this day, you can support the Real Bergen Democrats candidates who are opposed by Boss Ferriero's hand-picked candidates in the June 5 primary. They are Englewood Council President Charlotte Bennett Schoen; Bergenfield Council incumbent Bruce Carlson, Timothy Driscoll for Mayor and Barry Doll for Council, and County Sheriff candidate Allen Gailes, Jr. All have the endorsement of Bergen Grassroots.
The polls open soon, so I have not had the time to write this in Spanish. I will add this post to my "to translate" list. And I should have probably written this post last night or maybe a couple nights ago, but I tend to procrastinate. But for the record, my two centavos.

(Skip to the Podcast with Allen Gailes.)
While The Englewood Report's primary focus is local news, we do post stories that Blue Jerseyans may find of interest. Our latest entry is one such example.
In the Englewood Report's first ever podcast, Bob Stern interviews Lt. Allen Gailes, who is heading the Real Bergen Democrats ticket in June's Democratic Primary. Gailes is challenging BCDO candidate and current incumbent Leo McGuire for the position of Bergen County Sheriff.
This is an important election. The winner will run the largest law enforcement agency in the county with a budget that has grown to more than $50 million a year.

Over two Saturday mornings in Englewood, I have had the honor to meet a man that bluejersey must support. Loretta Weinberg, Gordon M. Johnson and Valerie Vainieri Huttle are taking on Team Ferriero for the legislature. Allen J. Gailes, Jr. is taking on Sheriff Joe, I mean Sheriff Leo McGuire.
In case you are curious about Leo McGuire's ties to Ferriero, I will give you two quick examples. Leo McGuire signed on to support Ferriero's bylaws amendments. He also donates money from time to time, like when
he gave $14,000 to the BCDO.
They're also big on preparing early. About a year ago, Ferriero and McGuire held hands in victory.
Like Ferriero did Tuesday night. A drink in his hand, the victory party still raging at the Hasbrouck Heights Hilton, he grabbed Sherriff Leo McGuire by the arm and reminded him of his upcoming 2007 election race.
"Three hundred sixty-four days," he said told McGuire. "We started three hours ago."
Good thing they've been campaigning (while focusing on law enforcement, of course) ever since, because believe it or not Leo, you've got yourself a primary.
The Bergen County Sheriff's Office must be free and independent of Joe Ferriero's lackeys. A stint as a councilman and police sergeant does not qualify you to be sheriff. And dressing up like a five star generalissimo feathered with an ever growing ensemble of glittery badges and medals from head to toe for every single camera in the county is not my definition of a man hard at work in law enforcement.
Twenty four years in the Bergen County Sheriff's Department are a testament to Allen Gailes' qualifications, experience, knowledge and dedication to our community. Lieutenant Allen Gailes, Jr. is the Sheriff that Bergen County deserves.
