PRONTI’S LATEST GUTTER CAMPAIGN: NEGATIVE & NASTY, NOT THE NA WAY!  

PRONTI’S LATEST GUTTER CAMPAIGN: NEGATIVE & NASTY, NOT THE NA WAY!  

What won’t Pronti do to attack mayoral challenger John Balwierczak?

Attached is a video of mayoral candidate John Balwierczak purchasing some hot dogs on Ridge Road and having a friendly conversation with the owner about his Mom who has since passed away, and the news that his sister was expecting a baby.

She had a baby boy and John is now a proud uncle.

For whatever reason, Dan Pronti has been posting this video all over the internet in various places, suggesting there is something strange with having a conversation with a local business owner. 

“Please draw your own conclusions,” is his general comment.

What exactly is wrong with the video?

Balwierczak is obviously a regular customer and was commenting on his Mom’s excitement about her daughter’s news she was expecting. Tragically, Marie Balwierczak passed away earlier this year of a heart attack.

So, what is the inference by this incredibly insensitive public figure who chooses to attack the candidate not on the issues, but for purchasing some hot dogs?

What is your point, Mr. Mayor?

Say what you mean and mean what you say instead of some vague suggestion that there is something wrong with this brief conversation?

Why are you this obsessed with John Balwierczak Danny boy?

Is it John’s appearance?

What did he say you find so weird or strange?

Why are you so petty, vindictive and nasty?

The problem here in North Arlington is obvious.

The problem is this political bully named Dan Pronti who seems to find a trap door and sink even lower in his attacks of a guy who has lived here his entire life, graduated from local schools and just wants to offer residents a meaningful change to the tactics of this entrenched incumbent and real estate agent who hails from Bayonne and takes his political counsel from Belleville!

There is nothing “Viking Blue” about MAGA Dan Pronti.

He is as equally offensive, silly and ego maniacal as his Donald Trump himself, who tried to destroy North Arlington with the failed housing debacle known as EnCap, a Republican effort to construct nearly 1,700 units of low-income housing in the Meadowlands!

This political narcissist is an embarrassment to the principles of North Arlington who has urbanized this once proud community into an extension of Belleville, the gateway to Newark, not Bergen County!

Now he has two Republicans running for the school board offering voters nothing except Pronti’s obsession in trying to control our local public schools. Republican Party politics has no place in the operation and management of the North Arlington Board of Education!

Just another version of Pronti’s political puppets!

This is just more insight into an individual who openly tries to run North Arlington like Hudson County.

One party politics, patronage, raises and jobs for partisan hacks while fueling his campaign with the donations of out-of-town developers and builders who have effectively urbanized a community that used to be small, safe, and suburban.

Instead of talking about ways to prevent further violence and murders on Ridge Road or federal raids of a business mixed up in drugs, Pronti uses tax dollars to create a phony 12-page newsletter with his fat face appearing 23 times! A taxpayer funded campaign mailer that cost taxpayers an estimated $10,000!

North Arlington needs two-party government and this kind of gutter campaign by Pronti and his hacks is embarrassing the community. The backlash to this post resulted in Pronti pulling down his personal obsession with Mr. Balwierczak.

To be a leader takes maturity, empathy, and a sense of what is right and what is wrong. In the case of Dan Pronti, you be the judge if this mayor possesses those qualities.

It isn’t much to ask for a candidate to crawl out of the gutter and act like an adult, a leader.

Hating your opponent is not a qualification to reelection Mr. Pronti.

Time to grow up, Dan.
