Norwalk needs City Council Elections by district and bring actual representation and accountability to the City Council. The current make up is noting more than rotating musical chairs and good old boy cronyism. With our new Mayor that prefers to make the decisions for the residents, rather than actually represent the wishes and will of the people. Lest we not forget our newly anointed “Vice Mayor Mr. “We can’t let the residents vote vote foe this (New Sewer Tax) they’ll never pass it” Shryock. These two are the furthest from being accountable or representing anyone or anything other than their own agenda. If this is the kind or representation we want in Norwalk, tell them at the ballot box and re-elect them. AGAIN !!! If we actually want real representation and real accountability, tell them at the ballot box and VOTE THEM OUT !!!!

Get involved in current political decisions, vote, and hold politicians accountable. Donate to non-profits that fight dirty money in politics such as Represent.us, Common Cause, or the WolfPac. As Jefferson once said, we have only our own ignorance and lack of intellectual curiosity are usually to blame. Throughout history, those in power will prey on the weak and take advantage of special interests for their own selfish needs, if they are not met with scrupulous questioning by those of who they are serving in their community. It is our sole duty as citizens of this country to balance the power and eradicate corruption, cronyism, and holding the corrupted politicians accountable and electing officials which will represent our community. Councilman Luigi Vernola and Cheri Kelley have very suspicious ties to SUPERPACS, along with a towing company contracted with the Sheriff’s Department, related to a family member of Councilam Luigi Vernola.
