Dear Supporters:
My campaign website is now up and operational. It is www.patcacchione.com. You will see on my site that the 6th Ward has extended the deadline for people to join the 6th Ward and vote on the 6th Ward endorsement on January 18th at SqWires. There are two ways people can join:
1. Send $5 to Tom Nolan at 2401 S. 11th Street St. Louis, MO 63104 before next Thursday
or
2. Send me the names and my campaign will submit them with a check from the campaign.
Although I disagree with the second option for ethical reasons, one of my opponents has made this a president and it was part of the compromise in extending the membership deadline. Please let me know if you have any questions and please encourage your friends and neighbors to join the 6th Ward by next Thursday or to contact me. Thank you.
Patrick Cacchione

Posted by Quirky on Wed., Dec 27, 2006 at 9:58 AMSo if you send Pat a list of Kacie and Christian supporters, will he blindly pay for their membership?
Posted by Brian on Wed., Dec 27, 2006 at 11:05 AMI just looked at Kacie's site and she is suggesting you send her $5 via PayPal and then they will write one check to cover those members. This is quite different than what Patrick is suggesting above.
So where are they going to hold this ward meeting? What do the bylaws say about people submitting their votes by proxiy rather than showing up in person?
Posted by Urban Review on Wed., Dec 27, 2006 at 11:11 AMI guess that $5 dollar donation is to pay for all the people she already bought her vote in the organization?
Posted by urban preview on Wed., Dec 27, 2006 at 11:27 AMWow, these two are good at making the case for Christian Saller.

I'd actually like to know the numbers --- how many members were added and what is the paper trail of the money. I guess when her report comes out in late January we'll be able to see how much the check was to the ward organization.
Posted by Urban Review on Wed., Dec 27, 2006 at 5:22 PMregardless of the paper trail, all the money is going to the ward organization where the committeewoman and committeeman will have a big chunk of change to sit on. if both triplett and cacchione are rushing to stack the meeting with their supporters, then expect the ward organization to get a big flux of money coming in. what happens to that money, is the real question. especially for a ward that doesn't do much other than have meetings a few times a year.
Posted by Webster on Wed., Dec 27, 2006 at 7:40 PMIt's funny hearing Patrick talking about 'ethical reasons'. I guess manipulating a ballot measure is a just and honest action. Oh Patrick, btw its precedent not president.
