Lowell's state legislators back Kazanjian

The four members of the city's Statehouse delegation today endorsed the bid of City Councilor Alan Kazanjian to serve a second term, weeks after Kazanjian's business, property and development records were subpoenaed by Middlesex District Attorney Gerard Leone.

[UNBELIEVABLE]

I can't believe the endorsements.

Kazanjian! Doyle!

I know who i won't be voting for in future lowell delegation elections.

[birds of a feather]

well if that doesnt shine a light on the sad state of our local politicians. could it be that these same local politicians had put alan into the city council with their connections in the first place so as to keep the corruption going for another generation or two. you expect this bull**** from 3 of the 4 but the biggest disappointment is Pangi. he has lost every bit of respect he had worked so hard for in the past. maybe the FBI can look into each one of these soon to be former politicos and indict them too just for being such idiots. congratulations, the city of lowell is officially the laughing stock of massachusettes with these four clowns at the head of the class.

This is a joke, right?

Just shows how out of touch our politians are. Time to clean house all the way around. These people think they have too much power.

Now I know two more people I won't be voting for in 2010. Better to leave those blank if they are unopposed, to send a message that we are fed up with business as usual and politicians who tolerate or endorse corruption. This is like giving the voters of Lowell an upraised middle finger.

[the 4 stooges]

This is the second disappointment with Pangy in the last few months (the first being breaking his word on a waiver of a primary).
As for the other 3 knuckleheads (Nyuk, Nyuk and Doorman Nyuk), I thought they had reached their low point in endorsments with Barry Feingold (over Eileen).
The insulting thing is that they actually think they have influence.
Talk about Money speaks.
The good part is that I have already heard from 3 people who were not going to vote (who cares??) who are now going out there to vote against Kazanjian.
Pangy: "you coulda been a champ but you have turned into a chump".

[Shocked and Chagrined]

Moe, Larry Curly & Shemp

[Doyle]

Remove them all from office by any means necessary.

[birds of a feather]

hey PANGI dont do any photo shoots in the next few weeks your self inflicted black eyes wont do you any justice. all i can say at this point and at the next election is WOOOOOOW!!! and you had soooo much potential. you should have taken a lesson from MEEHAN and stayed away from anything this controversial. you had better soon cash your check from the committee to re-elect a crook before the gig is shut down. give your lawyer a call and put him on notice of your impending deposition with the local feds at the gateway building. im sure they will have a few questions for you and the other 3 stooges!!

Very true. "This state needs an enema!"

[hahahaha]

And ,I'll bet they all get re-elected?

people in the Lowell area are brain dead idiots

[QUESTIONS]

KUDOS to these guys! All of you haters can keep spewing your hate! On election day, we'll see who is "out of touch" The people of this City are smarter than the LOwell Sun thinks we are. This is another Kendall Wallace hatchet job. Nasty man. He does nothing but hurt and divide Lowell as he has for years. Alan K. WILL be re-elected and so will these guys-not because of some backroom deals or shady political games as lovely Lynne would have you believe! Because we go out and vote!!!

[WOW]

Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse. Not only does this show Kazanjian has ZERO shame, it shows how corrupt most of our elected officials are. I am disgusted and can't wait until next year's election. I've always voted for Murphy and Panagi because they look out for Lowell's best interests. Not anymore!

[Disgusted]

More people to vote against.
I was already planning on voting against Pangi for voting for the increase in tax.

[latinlady]

why vote we all know the same a***h*** will be re elected any way like kazanjian and his peeps dum and dummer

[Amused]

All the Lowell reps backed DiMasi, who is now looking at substantial federal corruption charges. Now they are behind Kazanjian. Either they collectively are just poor judges of character, or there's something to that saying about birds of a feather.

I guess the Lowell Sun runs the FBI too right? Pull your head out of your behind guy.

[Same Old song]

No surprise here - These are the same reps that voted for Sal DiMasi who is currently under indictment - When the FBI is finished with Kazanjian, I doubt we'll see them in the courthouse supporting them

[Lowell Resident]

Absolutely Unbelievable!!!! Very discouraging. Golden and Pangi have lost my vote.

[Shocked and Chagrined]

You've heard of Jim Campanini, right? He is the editor in chief. Do you know what he does? Kendall has as much say in what is written in the paper as you do in what i write here. Alan K will be re-elected but that doesnt make it right. He's a thief but then again so are a lot of politicians. Kaz is not your typical politician. Well he is in the city of Lowell. We dont exactly elect the brightest and most qualified.
