There is a 10th Ward Republican committee but there is no 10th Ward Democratic Organization listed with the Ethics Commission. Antoinette Bianchi Poole, the 10th Ward Democratic committeewoman, sent out a letter supporting Jeff Smith.<BR/><BR/>Gambaro did not help himself by sending the Only One...Is From Our Neighborhood literature outside Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083116.post-1155573686429899832006-08-14T11:41:00.000-05:002006-08-14T11:41:00.000-05:00And in the 16th, Jeff had an ally in Fred Kratky t...And in the 16th, Jeff had an ally in Fred Kratky to come in a strong second.<BR/><BR/>But even in the 10th, Derio's home base, Jeff came in a strong second. The 10th ward establishment foolishly pretends as if the ward only exists north of Fyler. As a result, Jeff's grassroots campaigning throughout this ward, as he did throughout the entire district, despite Derio's easily won base on The Hill.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083116.post-1155564982893703302006-08-14T09:16:00.000-05:002006-08-14T09:16:00.000-05:00Yeah, I am in the 23rd as well.Pretty much everyth...Yeah, I am in the 23rd as well.<BR/><BR/>Pretty much everything Howard said was true.<BR/><BR/>The 23rd had a lot of support for Jeff, even though there were still a lot of Gambaro voters here.

But he had a lot more going for him. He had Dan (Tilles Park President) and Gina (Democratic committeewoman) Hagerty and their adult kids working their behinds off for him.
