Good job Edge. Lots of names left off but 10 is such a small number and McKeesport has such a long history of corruption....

I would disagree with one pick though. Lou did a lot of good things. He was smart enough to surround himself with goof people and drugs was no where near the problem under Lou that it is today. He as all about the kids and kept our streets safe.

S.A. 4 Ever

Good People.

Too afraid to put Sluggo up there?

Where you around back then? Walnut Street was packed around the bend. Pimp Cadillac wagons with fake TV antennaes were the style. A bag of weed
was $20 or $25 bucks & going into any downtown bar was like a dopers trip into the candy store.
Lou brought Section 8 & HUD into this city to fill up the houses all the unemployed steelworkers just walked away from when they left
town to find work elsewhere. Whoever told you these Fairytales wasn't being truthful.There was probably more dope & cheaper dope back then, because many people had real jobs & dealt dope on
the side. Unlike today when we have gangsta punks that think selling dope is a way of life.

School board members do not count!!!

Why not? They control three times the money and the jobs that the city politicians do. Please don't say they don't get paid.... we are all smarter than that.

What office did Matta hold in Mckeesport ? What idiot made this poll up ? This sounds more like a personal vendetta list to me.

A friend of mine did. I take the responsibility for his actions and apologize to all of those mentioned. This was not cool and I don't condone it. Some friends of mine got the impression that my Pop's, my Ex and my Brother had some cheap shots fired at them yesterday on hear and got a little riled up. I've spoken with my peeps. I hope you all will do the same. Is there a way to remove a poll from topix as there is an individual post? If so, I'll drop the $20 and have this removed. THe last thing we need in McKeesport is MORE political bad blood. That's not what I'm about.

Yuri did it!

Actually, it was my pal TheEdge15132. I'll see if he can take it down. He's probably not up yet. I'll drop him an email.

I have to ask what kind of idiot would put George Matta on this poll. Do you not read the newspapers ? George Matta is on a whole other tier now. Edge you should do your homework before you go ruining your buddy's political aspirations. How much more weight do you think George's name and word carries now ? I hope that edge isn't the brains of your operation lol. Good job edge !

Wow. Not just Matta. But to offend every person on this list and their supporters? Political suicide. The people on this list don't always like each other but after this, think about having this group united against someone?

My name better come off there Paul Shelly, Edge or who every else you are today, an dam quick.

Fat lady I never even thought of it that way. I feel bad for the guy who is running and put this poll together lol. Look at the names up there you have a who's who list. You have legends,ticket leaders, current elected officials. This list almost could make one think that someone within was trying to sabatoge his so called "freind".

Wow, such negativity. Maybe you should have a poll as to who we think did this city the best?

Oh, and Paul, please stop saying your not coming back on until after Labor day when apparently you are addicted to boasting your own ego.

Although, I guess this is the only thing that keeps you going.

This may go down in Mckeesport political history as the most stupid move ever made. Three cheers for Edge. You really fooled Paul! Edge maybe you should tell Paul what politician from Mckeesport that you are related to won't he be suprised
