Blackmer Resigns As City Auditor

Posted by Matt Davis on Tue, Jan 6, 2009 at 1:11 PM

The Tribune has the scoop. I thought he looked despicably sheepish as I nodded hello to him on the way downstairs at City Hall two hours ago...

Good luck in the future, Gary.

Here is a job for you at City Hall, you can take over for Blackmer...oh wait, you would have to be smart!

Oh well, you can just get a job with Scam or Randy, you don't have to be smart to be on their staff!

Here is the interesting thing.

The city auditor is a position that can be Publicly Financed. Though, the time till the special election in May will most likely not permit candidates to qualify for this.

Seeing how the Auditor is in charge of the Independent Police Review... would you rather have a candidate funded by the Police Union, the PBA, PDC and downtown businesses... or publicly financed.

I don't blame him. To go from auditing Potter to Adams is like getting an additional 500% workload increase. Not in a good way.
