Quote of the Day: “I was asked to step down by the state Republicans and I did it because I am a team player. But, I did not want to do that, I wanted to fight. I stepped down and I thought it would just be over, but it is not over.” – Anthony Cappola
Anthony Cappola: ‘I Deserve to Be on this Ballot’
The last two weeks have been turbulent for Anthony Cappola. He was one of LD38’s Republican candidates, he was forced to step down from his position on the River Edge Council, made to drop out of the assembly race and told he would be replaced on the ballot with Fernando Alonso. Then, on Wednesday, he learned that the Bergen County Republican Organization dropped their petition to remove him from the ballot due to financial constraints. Now, he is trying to resuscitate his candidacy in a district that had initially been considered one of the most competitive in the state. Alyana Alfaro, PolitickerNJ Read more
What a lame excuse. “It was nothing other than a satire.” Another politician who thinks every voter is dumb.
Mr. Cappola deserves every bit of the public humiliation and embarrassment that he received, and more. Too bad there was collateral damage to his family, but that’s one of the downsides of politics.
Jeezuz…what an idiot.
I see a reality television show in his immediate future.
They could not get his name off the ballot. He is hoping that people will vote Republican and not know about his book.
How has he explained the crazy book that he wrote?
The book shows incredibly bad judgement. If the voters were fully aware the would never vote for him.
