Translating Garmento Mayor Bruce Tucker's Exit Speech.

November 13, 2025 at 11:07 AM
Message from Mayor Tucker –
At last night’s Village Board meeting, I dropped the below piece of mendacious nonsensical propaganda and sophistry on you, the Piermont resident:…”
- - - - -

FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK:
“Good evening, everyone.”

TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE:
“Good evening, my former subjects, victims, pigeons, and paymasters. It was great scamming you and pretending to be a responsible village mayor over the past eight years, and I appreciate the way that about half of you either failed to pay attention to your taxpayer money or else fawned all over me during that time.”
- - - - -

FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK:
“As Mayor of the Village of Piermont, I want to take a moment to speak to all of you following what has been a spirited and, yes, at times, contentious election.”

TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE:
“As disgraced lame-duck exiting Mayor of the Village of Piermont, I want to take a moment to speak to all of you following the dumpster-fire of a mayoral election that I unnecessarily created out of my avowed and continued hatred for Nate Mitchell.”
- - - - -

FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK:
“Democracy is not always easy, and local elections - where we know our neighbors, our friends, and sometimes our opponents personally - can be especially passionate. But that passion comes from a place of deep care for our Village, and that is something we should all be proud of.”

TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE:
“Democracy is not easy, especially when, seeking to over-develop and ultimately destroy your village, your mayor – that is, me, Bruce Tucker - passionately sought only my own personal gain and self-aggrandizement over the past eight years while running Piermont Village Hall just like my former thug-like gangland ‘Lava Lounge’ in Elizabeth, New Jersey. Old habits are hard to break, after all.”
- - - - -

FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK:
“First and foremost, I want to congratulate the winner of the Mayoral election, Nate Mitchell. Earning the trust and confidence of your fellow residents is no small achievement. You will soon hold a position that carries both great responsibility and great opportunity - to guide, to listen, and to serve all of Piermont’s residents, whether they voted for you or not.”

TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE:
“Then again, who am I to arrogantly dictate to you, Nate Mitchell, what your duties, responsibilities, and expectations will be – while my own only remaining expectation is to get slammed in the New York State Comptroller’s Audit Report with the hope that FBI, NYSAG, and the D.A. don’t put the cuffs on me and shuttle me out to Waymart as a result.”
- - - - -

FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK:
“You ran on a promise to bring people together, to heal divisions, and to unify our Village. I hope - and I believe - that you will honor that promise, because Piermont is strongest when we move forward together.”

TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE:
“Speaking of ‘move forward together’, Nate, I want you to ignore the fact that the fake MIMBO candidate I propped-up to run against you as mayor spent half a year since June calling you ‘unethical’ while publicly and privately seeking to trash your reputation. But apart from that, we should now all move forward in lock-step together, right, Mayor Mitchell?... Mayor Mitchell?...”
- - - - -

FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK:
“I also want to recognize the efforts of the other candidate, Kevin Timoney. Running for office takes courage, commitment, and an enormous investment of time and heart. Your willingness to step forward, to share your ideas, and to engage in the democratic process reflects a deep love for our community. On behalf of the Village, I thank you.”

TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE:
“As for your October 9 ‘debate’ and your ‘campaign’ generally, TIMBO – your ‘preparation’ was Napoleon invading Russia. Your ‘performance’ was Admiral Stockdale. Don’t quit your day job, kid.’
- - - - -

FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK:
“To the newly elected Trustees of the Village of Piermont, Michael Wright and Catherine McCabe, congratulations as well. The people have placed their confidence in you to help shape the future of this Village. Public service at the local level is where real impact is made, and I wish you every success in the years ahead.”

TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE:
“I actually could not possibly care less about either of you. You’re both irrelevant. My only focus right now is to escape to Bay Head, New Jersey where hopefully no one will be able to find me after the Comptroller’s Audit Report comes out. Don’t give them my address... Oh, wait a minute. They already HAVE it…”
- - - - -

FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK:
“As I near the end of my term, I am reminded that leadership is temporary, but community is lasting.”

TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE:
“As I near the end of my term, I am reminded what a lousy job I did, triggering New York State inquiry into my financial malfeasance, sending you all into almost a negative ten million dollar Net Position hole, wasting hundreds of thousands of dollars of your taxpayer money to litigate senseless causes against you, witch-hunting my political adversaries, shamelessly pandering to ill-intentioned developers, facilitating over-development and environmental horror-shows that almost destroyed your village, allowing the Piermont Pier tip to crumble into the Hudson due to inadequate maintenance and inattention, running the most opaque and dissembling New York local government since Tammany Hall, and effectively destroying public faith and confidence in Piermont governance for God knows how long into the future. But as TIMBO said during his failed ‘campaign’ – ‘We have ice cream!”
- - - - -

FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK:
“The Village of Piermont belongs to all of us - to those who serve, to those who vote, and to those who simply call this special place home. Let us all move forward with respect, with empathy, and with a shared commitment to the well-being of our Village.”

TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE:
“Actually, the Village of Piermont has belonged to me, for eight years, particularly post-COVID when most of you stopped paying attention to what your local government was doing and not doing with all your taxpayer money. Oh, well. That’s on you. I’m escaping to Bay Head. You don’t seriously think that I will be able to show my face around this village anymore after the New York State Comptroller’s Audit report comes out, do you?”
- - - - -

FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK:
“Thank you, and may Piermont continue to thrive.”

TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL GARMENTO-SPEAK INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE:
“Thank you for letting me pretend to be a responsible government official for eight years. I hope that you all learned something while I ran my scam. Next time, do some due diligence on your mayoral candidates to make sure that none of them ever got busted by Good Housekeeping and the Wall Street Journal for wholesaling counterfeit-labeled sheets to other garmentos. See ‘ya.”

New Piermont Mayor Nate Mitchell Trashes Kevin Timoney.

You will recall that this past week, after losing the Piermont mayoral election, Kevin Timoney was too cowardly to face the music and give the customary concession speech. Instead, Timoney went electronically AWOL for 10 days afterwards:
https://unhandpiermont.blogspot.com/2025/11/exclusive-kevin-timoneys-concession.html

Even worse, Kevin Timoney appears to have struck yet another greasy deal with the outgoing Garmento Mayor himself, Bruce Tucker - such that Tucker would essentially render cry-baby Timoney’s concession speech for him:
https://unhandpiermont.blogspot.com/2025/11/news-of-piermont-greasy-garmento.html

And why not, right? After all, it was Greasy Bruce who propped-up Kevin Timoney’s garbage candidacy to begin with. Therefore, it made sense for Tucker to clean up his own garbage for once.
 
Yet after this Blog called Tucker and Timoney to task for their amateurish Podesta-Hillary dumb-show act:
https://unhandpiermont.blogspot.com/2025/11/news-of-piermont-greasy-garmento.html
 
… Kevin Timoney finally brought himself to admit to the world that he had been defeated. Timoney did so yesterday, Thursday, in a quickly-uploaded response:
https://unhandpiermont.blogspot.com/2025/11/and-take-your-laptop-with-you-timbo.html
 
First off, you will note the monstrous gaffe of a typo in Timoney’s hastily-concocted missive. Timoney actually referred to his victorious opponent as “my Nate”[sic].
 
Why?
 
Because initially, Timoney wasn’t going to cite Nate Mitchell by name, as opposed to simply refer to him as “my opponent”. Then, in a quick edit prior to posting to his lame Facebook page, Timoney instead replaced the word “opponent” with the proper name “Nate” - yet while at the same time failing to remove the possessive determiner “my”. This was simply another in a long series of mistakes that Kevin Timoney made during his sloppy, clownish, and oft-churlish campaign.
 
Yet the real offense was in Timoney’s other words. You can read them here:

https://unhandpiermont.blogspot.com/2025/11/and-take-your-laptop-with-you-timbo.html

In his 10-days-late concession speech, Kevin Timoney actually had the unmitigated gall to state, “I’m incredibly proud of the campaign we ran - positive, community-focused, and grounded in the belief that neighbors can shape the future of this village together”. [Emphasis added]. 

All this nonsensical tripe, coming from the inept MIMBO who had been repeatedly publicly calling Nate Mitchell “unethical” since June of this past summer:
https://unhandpiermont.blogspot.com/2025/10/even-more-kevin-timoney-ad-hominem.html
https://unhandpiermont.blogspot.com/2025/10/the-flagrant-hypocrisy-of-piermont.html

What a hypocrite. What a coward.
 
Kevin Timoney could not have thereby teed-up the ball more perfectly for Nate Mitchell’s next drive, though. You can feel it coming. Here is what new Piermont Mayor Nate Mitchell did to Kevin Timoney in response.
 
Nate Mitchell just took out the trash. In Nate Mitchell’s own words:

Vote Nate for 10968

November 14 at 4:23 PM

 

Friends and Neighbors:

I would like to thank everyone who cast their ballots in this November election, and especially those who chose me to lead our community in these challenging times and make this victory possible.  I’m proud to have won with a positive campaign grounded in a fact-based exchange of ideas, despite my opponent choosing to focus on negative and unsubstantiated allegations.  I hope in the future, we can elevate our political discourse above such divisive and defamatory approaches.

 

Over the last two years, I have been subjected to attacks from developers, our outgoing administration, and some misguided individuals, but with your enduring support, together we have weathered those storms, and have now turned an exciting new page for Piermont.  Congratulations to us all for seeing beyond the misinformation and coordinated attacks to recognize the best path forward for our community.

Now we need to get to work, to keep promises and start repairing our transparency and accountability in governance, and rebuild the public trust.  I look forward to having the privilege of working with all of you to accomplish those goals, and learning from each of you what should be preserved and maintained, and what needs improvement and adaptation.

 

I will strive to be the leader that Piermont needs to bring our community together and address the economic, environmental, legal, and social challenges we face today, and chart a realistic course forward to thrive.  As your Mayor, I will work to ensure priorities of quality of life, public safety, transparency, and the environment have a champion in Village Hall, and a voice in Village policy.

 

Respectfully,

Nathan Mitchell

"And Take Your Laptop WITH You, TIMBO!": Kevin Timoney FINALLY Concedes Piermont Mayoral Election Defeat.

KEVIN TIMONEY’S CONCESSION SPEECH OF NOVEMBER 14, 2024, WHICH HE PUBLISHED TO SOCIAL MEDIA TEN DAYS AFTER HE LOST THE PIERMONT MAYORAL ELECTION:

Kevin Piermont United
 
Dear Neighbors and Friends,
 
I want to sincerely thank everyone who supported me throughout this election — those who opened their doors, shared their ideas, joined our conversations, came to events, and believed in a vision of a more connected and collaborative Piermont. Your encouragement meant more to me than I can express.
 
I have emailed my Nate[sic] to congratulate him on his victory and to wish him well as he steps into this important role. Piermont deserves strong leadership, and I hope our village moves forward with transparency, accountability, and a renewed sense of unity.
 
While this wasn’t the outcome we hoped for, I’m incredibly proud of the campaign we ran — positive, community-focused, and grounded in the belief that neighbors can shape the future of this village together. That work doesn’t end today. I remain committed to serving Piermont in every way I can, and to being a resource, a volunteer, and a neighbor you can always count on.
 
Thank you again for your trust, your time, and your friendship. This village is special, and so are the people who call it home.
 
Sincerely,
 
Kevin

EXCLUSIVE!: Kevin Timoney's Concession Speech!

Nate Mitchell beat Kevin “Chicken” Timoney (pictured above) in the Piermont mayoral election on November 4, 2025. Kevin Timoney apparently went into a fully-humiliated hiding since, particularly after the Chicken made the recidivist mistake throughout his “campaign” of repeatedly calling his opponent Mitchell “unethical” while otherwise disparaging Mitchell’s competence and character.
 
Well, here we are, now 9 days later - November 13, 2025.
 
Kevin Timoney’s greasy guru is failed exiting current Piermont Mayor Bruce Tucker. Bruce Tucker propped-up Timoney as Tucker’s own personal straw-man for this election. Why? To serve Tucker’s own devices. Tucker used Timoney to try to block Tucker’s own political enemy Nate Mitchell at all costs.
 
Yet Mitchell won. Timoney and Tucker lost. So, after 9 days, Bruce Tucker - not Kevin Timoney - just made a de facto scripted concession speech of Tucker’s own last night, which Tucker then posted as text to the Village of Piermont’s Facebook page today:
https://unhandpiermont.blogspot.com/2025/11/news-of-piermont-greasy-garmento.html
 
Strangely enough, this means that Tucker actually beat Timoney to it, after both of these small-time political hacks first indulged in 9 days of radio silence together. 

Kevin Timoney’s refusal to give Nate Mitchell and the Piermont electorate the courtesy of a concession speech through today’s date is particularly striking, given that it was Timoney and not Tucker who actually lost to Mitchell. Even when Hillary and Podesta chickened-out on their supporters and the country at large on election night of 2016, Hillary still recovered by the next day:

https://www.politico.com/story/2016/11/clinton-concedes-to-trump-we-owe-him-an-open-mind-231118

Kevin Timoney, on the other hand, instead has chosen 9 consecutive days of narcolepsy after his defeat, through today’s date.
 
Now though, this just in - as an “Unhand Piermont!” EXCLUSIVE, this Blog is proud to present Piermont mayoral losing candidate Kevin Timoney’s OWN concession speech, verbatim and in full!:

News Of Piermont: The Greasy Garmento Concedes.

Message from Mayor Tucker -

“At last night's Village Board meeting, I read the following speech:
 
Good evening, everyone.
 
As Mayor of the Village of Piermont, I want to take a moment to speak to all of you following what has been a spirited and, yes, at times, contentious election. Democracy is not always easy, and local elections - where we know our neighbors, our friends, and sometimes our opponents personally - can be especially passionate. But that passion comes from a place of deep care for our Village, and that is something we should all be proud of.

First and foremost, I want to congratulate the winner of the Mayoral election, Nate Mitchell. Earning the trust and confidence of your fellow residents is no small achievement. You will soon hold a position that carries both great responsibility and great opportunity - to guide, to listen, and to serve all of Piermont’s residents, whether they voted for you or not. You ran on a promise to bring people together, to heal divisions, and to unify our Village. I hope - and I believe - that you will honor that promise, because Piermont is strongest when we move forward together.

"No 'Hand-Count' For You, TIMBO!"

“Piermont, Divided”: A Sneetch In Time.

What happened during this last Piermont, New York mayoral election cycle?
 
Well, undoubtedly with the malevolent assistance of failed outgoing Piermont Mayor Bruce Tucker and the now-inaptly-named “Piermont Democratic Committee”, losing mayoral candidate Kevin Timoney created a fabricated political party called “Piermont United”. Timoney did so, to try to snatch a victory from Nathan (Nate) Mitchell. A Freudian would have a field day with Timoney’s crossed-swords logo-graphic re-printed above, by the way. It looks like it was developed by some disgruntled VHS clam-shell animator with a grudge in Burbank.
 
Timoney’s purported premise for “Piermont United” was simple – “Unite” the embattled and disjointed populace of the small 2,500-person Village of Piermont under the common pacifistic banner and utopian mantra of “Please, people, fight no more”. Sounds pretty idyllic, doesn’t it? We are in the “United States of America”, after all.
 
Yet what Kevin Timoney purposefully failed to acknowledge, is that the majority of people out there actually read things more carefully than that. They actually analyze concepts more carefully than that, too. Simply throwing out the word “United” as applied to the Piermont electorate is a facile pedestrian platitude at best, and grossly misleading at worst. “Uniting” under John F. Kennedy would be one thing. Then again, Kim Jong Un expects his subjects to be “United” under him, too.
 
So the thoughtful questions that the majority of the Piermont electorate posed back to Kevin Timoney and his hastily-concocted logo were – “United” with or under whom, TIMBO?”… “Unite” for what cause?... “Unite”, how?... “Unite”, why?...
 
You see, when Kevin Timoney wanted Piermont voters to “Unite”, Timoney was simply acting as Bruce Tucker’s dullard proxy. Timoney sought to help Tucker prevent Tucker’s enemy Nate Mitchell from becoming the next Piermont Mayor at all costs. Tucker hates Mitchell more than Tucker hates sincerity. And that’s the real irony. “Piermont United” was actually a losing movement born of the hatred of a few small-minded individuals. What Bruce Tucker and Kevin Timoney were really trying to “unite” within the population of Piermont voters, was frothy fomented antipathy towards Nate Mitchell. It didn’t work. Tucker and Timoney failed. Mitchell won.

It’s not about political party. Nate Mitchell, Kevin Timoney, and Bruce Tucker are all registered Democrats. Additionally, in Piermont, Democrat resident voters far outnumber Republicans. That doesn’t look likely to change anytime soon. Yet even within the Democrat party, there is real division – both on the national level, and even within the small Lower Hudson River Valley Village of Piermont.
 
In Piermont, there are political hacks like Barbara Scheulen and Margaret Grace who have sought to run a feudal allegiance fiefdom in the form of a “Piermont Democratic Committee” and its lame amateurish attendant “newsletter”. Their periodical pablum is published for the sole benefit of those whose respective sources of identity have been simply to serve as meek supplicants to incompetent Garmento Mayor Bruce Tucker. Slight, unmeritable lackeys me’et to be sent on errands. It has been disgusting to watch.
 
Then, there are real Democrats who believe in representative government by the people - without patronage, nepotism, cronyism, shady real estate deals, and corruption.
 
This division should not surprise anyone. After all, in the gestalt sense, there are at least two sides to every issue. Our American political system itself is based upon the opposing forces of two (or, sometimes more) multiple parties. Our American legal system is adversarial. There is plaintiff, and there is defendant. There is prosecution, and there is perp and public defender. Moreover, capitalism prevails in America. Capitalism means competition. With competition, there are winners, like Nate Mitchell. And there are losers – losers like Kevin Timoney and Bruce Tucker. Some gotta win. Some gotta lose.
 
The notion that Piermont is a unified body of completely like-minded people, is preposterous when you think about it. Specifically, it is ironic and discordant, given the therein-reigning Democrat party’s oft-stated objective of inclusiveness for people with different backgrounds and mind-sets. Moreover, the artificial notion of Piermont “Unity” was just belied by the quantitative exactitude of the Mitchell-Timoney vote-count itself. It is also belied by common sense and an understanding of the history of the Village and of Rockland County.
 
Piermont’s story is more a Tale of Two Cities. A once-industrial Hudson River village that became a tourist destination on the back of a Woody Allen movie... The municipal workers who cash-out on chunky pensions and benefit-packages, versus the wealthy taxpayers who just pay them without thinking to balance their own proverbial checkbooks by reviewing the Village’s numbers... The residents who could actually live with a building resembling a Motel Six at one end of Piermont Avenue, and a building resembling a Super 8 at the other end of Piermont Avenue, built over still-submerged gasoline tanks – versus the residents who say “No Way”... Those that merely complain about the flooding, versus those that try to do something about it.
 
Yet the best pop culture or literary reference descriptive of Piermont’s recent mayoral election, would be “The Sneetches And Other Stories” by Theodor Seuss Geisel p/k/a “Dr. Seuss”.

Geisel used the story of his “Sneetches” to teach youngsters not to discriminate. His book illustrated the psychical and social harm done when some Sneetches marked themselves as superior with tattoo-like stars on their bellies while other Sneetches went without. Clearly, Geisel was right. Feigned superiority based upon physical characteristics alone, is completely unacceptable. For that reason, the Seussian Sneetches should have been “United”, no question.
 
Yet what about discriminating against those Piermont residents whose lax inattention, self-dealing, or conflicts-of-interest led them to wantonly genuflect to Bruce Tucker and thereby support the harm almost inflicted upon the Village by Tucker’s straw-man candidate Kevin Timoney – simply to enable Tucker’s well-known vendetta against Nate Mitchell? 

That’s not discrimination based upon physical characteristics. Rather, that’s differentiation of constituents based upon a glaring divide of intellect and moral character. In that respect, then, “United” be damned. As distinguished from the Geisel case, such discrimination is, instead, justifiable and wholly-permissible Sneetching. Moreover, it is part and parcel of the American electoral process. Therefore, the Nate Mitchell Sneetches now wear stars on their bellies. The Kevin Timoney Sneetches wear none. It will stay that way until the next election. Additionally, thanks to social media, election petitions, and FOIL requests, we even know who most of the Kevin Timoney Sneetches in Piermont are.
 
To really understand the Mitchell v. Timoney Piermont mayoral election result, what it all comes down to is the basis for the divide between the two current sets of Piermont Sneetches:
 

By their vote, the Kevin Timoney Sneetches were willing to endure over-development by greasy ill-minded Jersey real estate developers fostered by an even-greasier current Garmento Mayor named Bruce Tucker. The Nate Mitchell Sneetches said “No Way” to that over-development and to Tucker’s fetid legacy when marking their ballots.

 

By their vote, the Kevin Timoney Sneetches were willing to pay continued sycophantic warped fealty to sleazy outgoing Mayor Bruce Tucker who had absolutely no business in Piermont Village Hall to begin with. The Nate Mitchell Sneetches said “No Way” to that warped fealty when marking their ballots.

 

By their vote, the Kevin Timoney Sneetches were willing to corrupt the “Piermont Democratic Committee” in support of a candidate other than the actual choice of the Democrat party. The Nate Mitchell Sneetches said “No Way” to that corruption when marking their ballots.

 

By their vote, the Kevin Timoney Sneetches were willing to support a newbie MIMBO candidate who put on a laughable unprepared and malaprop-ridden presentation at a mayoral “debate” while often unable to even string two coherent sentences together. The Nate Mitchell Sneetches said “No Way” to that incompetence and inattention when marking their ballots.

 
The point is, there really ARE at least two different types of people who inhabit Piermont – those that pay attention, and those that don’t... Those that think carefully, and those that don’t. You will not have a truly “United” Piermont until the latter group gets smarter.
 
Could that really happen? Well, right now, a sizable number of Piermont residents are still willing to endure continued over-development, continued flooding, continued decay of the Piermont Pier and other infrastructure, continued Village Hall financial malfeasance, continued lack of foresight in planning, continued token economy and patronage schemes, continued opacity and disingenuousness in Village government, continued local restaurant health code violations, continued bad white wine served at those same restaurants, continued amateurism in what some residents try to call “art”, continued presence of known sex-abusers in the Piermont Fire Department, and continued attempts at re-writing history to make Bruce Tucker appear to be a competent Piermont Mayor rather than the undesirable Jersey sham detritus that Tucker really is:

“When I consider the weakness, the folly, the pride, the vanity, the selfishness, the artifice, the low craft and mean cunning, the want of principle, the avarice the unbounded ambition, the unfeeling cruelty of a majority of those... who are allowed an aristocratical influence; and on the other hand, the stupidity with which the more numerous multitude not only become their dupes, but even love to be taken in by their tricks: I feel a stronger disposition to weep at their destiny, than to laugh at their folly.” [Emphasis added].

John Adams to Thomas Jefferson, 15 November 1813.

https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Jefferson/03-06-02-0478

Thankfully, though, the majority of Piermont residents did read things carefully, did pay attention, and did decide to right the ship of Piermont Village government when marking their ballots. Nate Mitchell beat Kevin Timoney. Yet remember that the November 4 margin was way closer than it should have been. There are winners. There are losers. Unless those losers all move out of Piermont or otherwise self-extinguish en masse, you really cannot reasonably expect a “United” Piermont. 

Moreover, remember that in the meantime, even those losers might get lucky sometimes, in a subsequent election. Therefore, continued vigilance is necessary, in 2026 and beyond, to keep those losers, those Timoney Sneetches, as far away from Piermont Village Hall as possible. They know who they are. And we do, too.

Former Stamford Clerk Pays $8,000 Fine In 2015 Absentee Ballot Fraud Case
By Paul Hughes, Staff Writer
Nov 6, 2025
Tyler Sizemore/Hearst Connecticut Media
 
HARTFORD — Former Stamford Town Clerk Donna Loglisci has paid an $8,000 fine for participating in an absentee ballot fraud scheme with the former city chairman of the Democratic Party in 2015, state election regulators said.
 
The State Elections Enforcement Commission on Wednesday unanimously approved a consent order and agreement that settled a complaint lodged against Loglisci a decade ago. The settlement required that Loglisci pay an $8,000 civil penalty and agree to comply with state election laws.
 
Staff attorney William B. Smith advised the SEEC that the signed check and consent order, and the agreement had been received from Loglisci and her attorney on Monday.
 
In September 2022, a state Superior Court judge found John Mallozzi, the former chairman of the Stamford Democratic City Committee, guilty of committing 14 counts of second-degree forgery and 14 counts of false statement in absentee balloting in the city’s 2015 election when Loglisci was town clerk. Two months later, he was sentenced to two years of probation and fined $35,000. A three-judge panel of the state Appellate Court upheld his conviction in a June 2024 decision.
 
Smith noted Loglisci testified as a witness for the state that she gave absentee ballots to Mallozzi and two other people even though the ballots were for voters other than him. She admitted she broke the law by doing so but was not charged with any crimes.
 
Under state law, a town clerk is supposed to mail or hand an absentee ballot to the person who applied for it, though there are exceptions for situations such as a hospitalization.
 
The SEEC launched an investigation after Lucy Corelli, the Republican registrars of voters, filed a complaint in 2015 that a city resident voted twice in the 2015 election. The resident told SEEC investigators he initially was turned away when he tried to vote in person at his polling place on Election Day because he had been marked down as having voted by absentee ballot. The resident signed a statement swearing he had not voted by absentee ballot and was allowed to cast his vote in person.
 
The investigation eventually was turned over to the state’s attorney’s office for the Stamford and Norwalk Judicial District. Mallozzi was arrested on charges of absentee ballot fraud in January 2019.
 
Loglisci, a Republican, ran for reelection in 2017, but Democrat Lyda Ruijter defeated her. Ruijter lost her reelection bid Tuesday running as an Independent Party candidate.

1. Preventative Measures. All e-mails, correspondence, and other Records of any kind relating to any procedures, protocols, precautions, counter-measures, and other preventative measures taken by RCBOE or taken by any other agency, person, or entity, to militate against any voter fraud, ballot fraud, falsification of absentee ballots, falsification of mail-in ballots, or any other falsification of votes, ballots, counts, re-counts, hand-counts, tallies, or other impropriety of election processing - regarding the Piermont mayoral election of November 4, 2025 in which Kevin Timoney opposed Nathan (Nate) Mitchell.

As this FOIL should be considered a matter of public importance, and as its results will be shared with the general public and published, I am asking that any otherwise-applicable fees be waived for this document-production. I am also asking that all documents be provided to me electronically to the full extent possible, so as to obviate the need for any photocopying expense.
 
7. Denials And Appeals. In the event that any portion of my request is denied, please inform me of each of the specific reasons for any such denial in writing - and provide me with the name, address, and other contact information of the person or entity to whom an appeal should be directed.
