Sheriff Draws An Opponent…From Ohio
BY BUDDY NEVINS
Candidates living outside their proper district were big news last year.
But the controversy in 2014 was about candidates living a mile or two away from their constituents.
Sheriff Scott Israel’s first opponent for his 2016 re-election is from more than 1,000 miles away!
Edison Jules, who filed to run against Israel last week, is apparently Deputy Chief of the Shawnee Ohio Police Department.
This according to Linkedin and various Internet sites.
Maybe Jules recently quit the Ohio police and didn’t update his Linkedin bio.
He used a Plantation address on his papers for office filed Thursday, April 30. The papers identify him as both a Democrat and a write-in candidate.
There is no doubt that this Haitian American’s experience is all in Ohio.
“I not only welcome him to the race, I welcome him to Florida as well,” Israel quipped.
Jules apparently has some connection to Hollywood resident Rafael Burgos. Burgos posted Jules’ biography on Facebook this weekend.

This one is curious. A Rafael Burgos from Hollywood was arrested for domestic battery and false imprisonment just one day before Jules announced his candidacy, according to an Internet report linked here.
Hmmmm. It smacks of a certain female political consultant well known for putting ringers in races. This consultant had a very public falling out with Israel after his 2008 race.
The last word should go to another Broward political consulatant who wants to remain unnamed:
“It’s pretty funny that the best the anti-Israel crowd could do is import an unknown guy from Ohio.”
Amen.

That’s funny. Remember when Lamberti stacked the D’s during the 2008 election to split the vote so he could fraudulently win the election?
May 3rd, 2015 at 12:42 pm
Didn’t Judy Stern want to run the Chief of Miami Gardens before he got busted with prostitutes?
May 3rd, 2015 at 1:20 pm
Do we laugh because he’s totally unqualified for the office of Sheriff or cry because ethnic politics is the only basis of this absurd candidacy? I mean if there are people who believe our current Sheriff shouldn’t be elected can’t they come up with a credible candidate not this joke in bad taste?
May 3rd, 2015 at 2:39 pm
I’m laughing so hard it almost hurts. That’s very funny.

I should run. I mean this nonsense is just what I have been talking about. This Hatian can run, vote, jerk off in front of you, but sucker-boy here gets his voting card taken away from him(the only reason I didn;t fight it , is becaus e my mother was dying at the time(and she was going to end up in some nursing home-isn’t that right Ft>alu city comm Trantalis(your) friends(some) are scum bags-you are lucky becaus e of their gross actions(phone calls etc,harassmnet) you didn’t catch the fall o ut from that(meaning beating). So I guess I pay taxes, work, etc but can’t vote becaus e baldy there (Gov,Goober Scott) thinks he will lose votes(no shit). Lastly ps- thos e that are wondering what happened w. special Pros. Tim donnelly I ha d to temprarily cancel , due to personal issues.(on my side). I will reschudule later this month. I like him by the way.We will get justice people(hang in there)…..

Curious as to who the consultant is that may have put this guy in the race.
I bet this guy gets endorsed by many or all of those listed below:
Steve Geller, Lois Wexler, Perry Thurston, Chros Smith, Dean Trentalis, Mayor Lamar Fisher, Dem State Committeeman Ken Evans, Joe Eggletion, Vicente Thrower, Joe Gibbons, Chris Mancini, Dan DeCoursey, Troy Samuels, Lori Mosley, Julio Gonzalez, Joy Cooper, Tim Ryan, Michael Rajner and Barbra Effman,

Don’t for get Al Lamberti, Neal DeJeaus, Ashley Walker and Louis Granteed.

Big mystery who the anonymous consultant is…everyone knows you pal around with Mike Ahearn and you allow him to smear Judy Stern regularly on this blog.

So the guy who introduces this Jules clown to Broward voters is this guy…
http://www.local10.com/news/hollywood-man-accused-of-beating-girlfriend-locking-her-in-bedroom/32645366
And after being accured of beating his girlfriend, this jerk poses for a pic in a boxing stance. I’m sure his defense lawyer will love this!!

@ #6 — Oh, you mean Judy Stern.

Walter Duke should run. He became Mayor of Dania Beach as a carpetbagger. The tradition lives on. Now, a carpetbagger from Ohio wants in on the corruption in Broward County.
From the looks of his resume, he might be a good partner for Barbara Sharief in the medical care financial “mistakes” business. Or maybe he could team up with Rick Scott on that issue. Come to think of it, the guy seems perfect for Florida. Don’t count him out.

Yo Count Choddy…
my nomme de plume is neither tasteless or stupid. I worked at BSO when Scumberti was there and I told the Feds what was going on. I can’t control the politics. Lamberti belongs in jail.
May 5th, 2015 at 10:22 pm
Yeah I didn’t think you would be bale to provide a cohesive response.
May 6th, 2015 at 11:47 am
Israel is a really great sheriff.
He is straight up and no nonsense.
He doesn’t allow anyone to lead him astray- and is a stand up guy!
May 6th, 2015 at 2:52 pm
Ahearn is such a sad creature, what a joke he is around town.
FROM BUDDY:
And the reason you are taking a shot at him is???? He had nothing to do with this post.
May 13th, 2015 at 7:20 am
Edison is being used to split the vote, in the primary, so judy can help Lamberti with his campaign. Its designed to make Israel spend his money on a meaningless primary to soften him up for the general election.
