"On or about May 19, 2009, the Consultant and JC Official 1 met the CW at a diner in Hoboken, New Jersey where they were joined by defendants Cammarano and Schaffer. During this meeting, defendant Cammarano discussed the prospects of winning the runoff election between himself and the other remaining candidate on June 9, 2009, and stated that [r]ight now, the Italians, the Hispanics, the seniors are locked down. Nothing can change that now. . . . I could be, uh, indicted, and Im still gonna win 85 to 95 percent of those populations.
"Defendant Cammarano then stated 8 this is the way Mr. Schaffer and I both see the world through the same lens, right. In this election, hopefully, we, we, we, you know, we get to the point where Im sworn in on July 1st, and were breaking down the world into three categories at that point. Theres the people who were with us, and thats you guys. Theres the people who climbed on board in the runoff. They can get in line. . . And then there are the people who were against us the whole way. They get ground . . . They get ground into powder. The CW remarked that the latter group would have to wait for approvals on their projects for [t]hree years, and that they would be consigned to the [b]ottom of the pile. Subsequently, the CW told defendant Cammarano that [the Consultant] or [JC Official 1] will call you once we have the property to buy, just make sure we got your support. Defendant Cammarano thanked the CW and stated, You got it. The CW then told defendant Cammarano that well do another 5,000 once you win. Hopefully, what is it, June 2nd, or whatever? Defendant Cammarano informed the CW that the election was June 9th, and the CW reiterated that [w]ell meet ya a couple days after you recover, well do another 5,000. Defendant Cammarano replied, Definitely, and left the diner.
The yuppies THINK that they "run" Hoboken, but they typically only stick around for five years and then go out to Montclair and Summit once they start having kids. The old Italians and Puerto Ricans still provide a more loyal clientele for the Dem machine.
