When he was the Marion County Chairman in 1996, he allowed the Ghetto Mafia to steal the Center Township Trustee's office for Carl Drummer who was in bed with newly elected congresswoman Julia Carson. The Party had to keep Julia in town until they could transfer the surety bond. Kip Tew did not have the election results certified in a timely manner and Julia could not transfer the bond and have it recorded at the county Recorder's office.<br /> A lawsuit was filed in Circuit Court immediately following the Democrat Party caucus over the whole mess because Kip Tew, Cordelia Lewis, 10th District chair, and State chair Joe Andrews looked the other way and allowed the improper election to stand.<br /> The Party rules meant nothing to them. Illegal proxy votes were cast by vice precinct committeepersons and nothing was ever done about it. The circuit court judge sent the matter back to the Party to resolve, and neither chairman would conduct a propere hearing with a qurum present. The rest is history.Nonamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00543454331025777959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-52275554563941643532011-10-17T22:36:57.119-05:002011-10-17T22:36:57.119-05:00Well, Kip is leaving a lot out that the public nev...Well, Kip is leaving a lot out that the public never knew about. There were several people in the Democrat administrations who engaged in blatant illegal, self-dealing transactions that were completely swept under the rug. I know of one, in particular, who got caught red-handed and Gov. O'Bannon knew it. He was allowed to quietly resign without his illegal transgressions ever being turned over for prosecution. One of Bayh's cabinet members tried shaking down a major contractor for a job and sought retribution against the contractor when he didn't get the job. There were plenty of illegal things going on during the awarding of the riverboat licenses in this state under Bayh. Nobody got prosecuted because an appointee of Bayh was in the U.S. Attorney's office.Gary R.

I wonder if Kip and the Dems will start to throw more dirt at the GOP and Daniels. What Mitch doesnt mention is that under O'Bannon he had the PERF crook prosecuted. Daniels just lets his people go. Take a look at how he let Mitch Roob leave with a pat on the back! Also it should be mentioned that now two of Daniels choices to run the lottery have had to quit due to scandal. The first one Esther Schneider cost the state millions in lawsuit settlements. Kathryn Densborn to nobodies surprise turned out to be a loser as well. It's strange that the Dems didnt throw all the scandals at the Gov in 2008. He would have been toast.rohshack147https://www.blogger.com/profile/09443718235851875620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-91562160413061637962011-10-17T21:12:44.803-05:002011-10-17T21:12:44.803-05:00Can't he just get a pension fund gig with the ...Can't he just get a pension fund gig with the ISTA?Pete Boggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12948800585492289789noreply@blogger.com
