The Record
In a forceful personal denial, Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno today said allegations that she tried to coerce the mayor of Hoboken to approve a redevelopment plan to benefit politically connected firms in exchange for Superstorm Sandy relief are “wholly and completely false.”
Speaking inside a fire hall in Union Beach before a day of service honoring the late Martin Luther King Jr., Guadagno said Dawn Zimmer’s accusation caught her by surprise.
“Mayor Zimmer’s version of our conversation in May 2013 is not only false, but is illogical and does not withstand scrutiny when all the facts are examined,” Guadagno said. “Any suggestion that Sandy funds were tied to the approval of any project in New Jersey is completely false.”
Guadagno did not take any questions from reporters gathered for the event after offering her statement.
Did you really expect her to say anything but?
Sorry politicians from Hudson county are simply not believable , add to the the mayor seems to have no evidence what so ever , I’d say her political career may be over
Makes me wonder about the trip Christie made to Ridgewood at the request of the developers last summer and the free tickets given to our town council to attend his grand gala.
I wonder if Christie demanded to be in the July 4th parade last year?
Kim G is as believable as Paul A
Here ya go. Corrected that fer ya:
Dawn Zimmer is as believable as Paul A
Hey #6 I think our Mayor is extremely truthful and believable. Stop comparing him with other lairs who are in office for their own good.
Hey #7… #5 (a Dem) called your boyfried dishonest, not #6
