[BREAKING] Today's Press Event by Candidate Jane Murray

Jane Murray announced on her website that she was having a press conference today:
News conference Wednesday, October 28, 11:00 a.m. Laborers' Local 83; 2032 8th Street.
Apparently, it was quite a show. We don't have all of the details yet, but Randy Yohe from WSAZ News and reporters from the Portsmouth Times and Community Common were there. She apparently thinks she can control the local media, but it didn't go too well today by all accounts. Tonight's coverage of the event by WSAZ (at 5 pm(?), 6 pm and 11 pm) may be very interesting. Certain candidates for office were kicked out of ths public meeting, and others were allowed to remain. We hear that Jane Murray refused to answer certain questions that we have raised here at the Underground, and also that some City workers (AFSCME) were there to share the fact that, despite the headline in the Portsmouth Times on Saturday Oct. 24, 2009 the City employees of the AFSCME Local Union did NOT endorse Murray (or any candidate)! We find the endorsement story to be increasingly interesting. Suffice it to say (for now) that many city workers are irate about their union's improper conspiring with Jane Murray despite the Local Union's vote by the membership to remain neutral. As we learn more about this matter we will share it.

  2. Interesting that Mrs. Mollette seems to be working harder on Ms. Murray's campaign than her own husband's campaign.

  3. I hope you don't let Jane's whining, deter you from reporting the story that she doesn't want us to hear. Funny the very people who are complaining about this are the ones who just love to trash others on their websites. Jane was the very first to start the accusations and now she has the nerve to complain.

  4. Folks, if it were fifteen year old allegations, with no merit......The Herald should have been sued. Doubt they were! Bad bookkeeping? Ethics 101 tells you gifts to legislators are inappropriate. She is nothing more than a smooth talking professional lobbyist. From her past business dealings you can see that she can't run one, let alone manage a city. Do not let her rhetoric and smooth talk mask the message!!!
