Having filed a formal complaint against candidate Capalini with the ethics board I can say he has run the sleezeyest campaign yet. No surprize since he is a republican. Mr eller your apology in your paper about not knowing how biased your moderator was at the Mayors forum Tuesday night does not obsolve you. He was your moderator and you bear the responsibility for his poor manners, and poor behavior. A pox on your house. I know a few adverstisors will pull out of your rag sheet as soon as this election is over and you go broke trying to get capalini off the hook

Corrupt Frog Face Capellini should not even be on the ballot. Remember the married female lifeguard that his buddy in the Parks and Recreation Department, Jack Disher, was forcing to date Capellini?

You've obviously been smoking something. However there are some people out there who know the real deal. The trips to Key West and all the other extra curricular activities. If you call a $0.20 raise a great deal, then Andy Madtes is KING. If not visiting shops and not representing the people is having strength all over, then UNITE-HERE is great. Do me a favor will 'ya? Open your EYES. For the last 2 years Local 355 has been under trusteeship because your wonderful Andy was removed from office by the public review board. All public information.

This is another case of a South Florida Union that has no idea what it is doing. Having a rally at this location was stupidity. Much like UNITE-HERE Local 355, another incompetent union led by a croooked idiot named Andy Balash, who was removed from office for stealing union dues money for personal use but kept in office by corrupt union president John Wilhelm, this union led the workers into the abyss with poor planning, lack of knowledge, refusal to play hardball from the beginning, and stupid stunts like this one that did not affect the university at all. Just like we have thousands of hotels & restaurants opening every day paying poverty wages while crooks like Balash live the high life off union dues payers while he refuses to organize anything becuase it creates actual "work" he does not want to do, janitors and service workers are left without the ability to negotiate with strength because of incompetent, corrupt union leadership.
YEA I WAS THE ONE RESPONCIBLE FOR BRINGING DOWN ANDREW BALASH. THE DIFFERNCE IS I DONT HIDE BEHIND FICTICIOUS NAMES. GRAB YOUR BALLS AND MAKE A STANCE LIKE I DID. I NOT STOP CRYING. THE UNIONS ARE AS CURRUPT AS EVER. SO IS ANDREW BALASH. YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE EMAIL ME HEATHNY212@GMAL.

Charles Heath Muniz hit the nail on the head. Andy and his former President Jorge Santiesteban who resigned after being when served with papers for using union funds for personal use and corruption never really organized any major hotels in South Florida. Yet Any has been paid by the International as an Organizer. The Local 355 is a pathetic excuse of a union. Andy paid a lawyer to fight the charges but had to step down as head of the Local for 2 years, but managed to still work for the local. He even changed his last name to Madtes to apparently throw off everyone in the local to think he is someone else. If you google Andy Balash and UNITE-HERE corruption you will see the articles from the Miami Herald and Sun Sentinel about the investigation by by the Department of Labor. Jorge later admitted that he was President but wasn't aware of what Andy was doing, Andy had full control. I would not waste my time or money to join that worthless union. I was a union member for over 35 years of my life and believed in them, until learning how corrupt Unite-Here is, they only look out for their officials and could care less for their membership. If they wanted to be a real union, they would have made a major effort to organize all major and lesser hotels and restaurants in South Florida. They have no strength whatsoever.
