FOP Runoff (UPDATES)
Early returns from the Hall:
- 9,000 votes, plus or minus.
That's pathetic to say the least. We'll see what the breakdown is between retirees and active members.
- Runoff - Angelo versus Shields?
That would be truly pathetic.
UPDATE: NOT Shields.
Angelo versus Graham.
Looks like Martin Prieb won his race.

We're fucked
Go Mike !!
No it's official there will be a runoff. Angelo v Kevin graham. Marty prieb wins as 2nd VP. Just so all of you know, if Angelo wins then the vote on Prieb is wasted because he will never let Marty be part of unit 541 which means his day to day job is at the lodge. More than likely if you vote Angelo then prieb gets wasted just being assigned to his current unit and is no better to us than just a simple unit rep. I really think we need prieb in the forefront of our union.
Unbelievable
The ship has SUNK!
Would it be apathetic, rather than pathetic? Or, would it be both? It seems 9K, or 50%, participating is not bad, considering the participation of other recent elections of all kinds, however, I had hoped for 75+% participation.
Go Mike Shields!
Fuckin clowns...Shields was NOT the answer (again)!!!!
Not Shields? No way! Everybody I entertained in conversation was going to vote for Mike Shields. Something is rotten?!
Turd sandwich vs. Giant douche!
Hey aguliar... so close, yet so far.. back to non existence for you rich.
This blows!
Back to suspending those cases McDonough... hahahahahahahaha!
over 1700 idiots voted for Shields,,,,,unfuckking believable
We needed Mike Shields! But you idiots just could not see it! I am disgusted.
Ugh. We are our own worst enemies. At least Shields was always on the news forcing himself in front of the cameras. Not that I like Shields but to vote for the same old same old guy who is too old to even negotiate our contract? (Isn't that right or is there a loophole?) Yes, Angelo wants the best for us, but can he really make a difference, can anyone dent this anti police corrupt city hall machine, he only gets on tv at 2am for 15 min on the channel nobody watches. Whatever. Hope he does a better job. We really need a loud voice. 1st and the 16th, no isr's, no receipts, goto calls. That's it.
You've just lost all credibility guys.....if you can't vote in your own union you really can't bitch....sad state of affairs.

agreed going with graham all in, want Marty in our corner!
I can't believe that clown Pat Murray got in.
Apathetic as usual. Maybe 25% of actives vote and 80% of retiree's that are still active.
Pretty much the same as national elections minus presidential years when more come out to vote.
Why would anyone vote for Dean???!!!
The lodge should not closed without being in due form! Any cop that keeps his hand on any furniture of the lodge hall can keep that lodge open until a suitable decision is had for the membership!
Guess I'll vote for Kevin again....
How soon will we know the results of the election?
If you did not VOTE DO NOT BIT#H
Man the lifeboats!
Put on the life jackets!
The Titanic is going down!
Russians hacked the election.
Not a good sign for Dean. Hopefully Graham scoops up the others votes.
Maybe I won't need a "not my president" after all.
Marty will be a good spokesman for the FOP.
Congrats Pat Murray !!
What about Jerry?
Vote for Graham and get rid of Bella! He's a snake in the grass
I received my ballot today in the mail. Can I still cast my vote?

100% agreed with you you cannot let Bella in that office he can't be trusted when Grahamtakes over Bella must be on the outside. Bella has been around a long time he's a very subversive person be very careful around him personally I know him and I won't even talk in front of him because you cannot be trusted is involved in a lot of collusion. If you get a CR number and Bella is involved with it expected take time and a suspension possibly in addition to a longer time.
Like I said retirees vote. We fought for a union if you didn't vote STFU. Kell
Everyone who voted for Shields, needs to vote for Graham. We need a major change.
Pat Murray. You guys are retarded. Three politicalians own home. Used to be Sgt at arms in City council. You just let the enemy in the union hall.

So how does Dean still get voted in to lead FOP? Are so many of you just stupid?
Why do you re-elect an idiot to FOP? I don't understand this at all and hope I don't have to read anymore about how the City is screwing you. If the City is screwing you, you don't re-elect the guy who helped screw you.
You voted for Dean? You really voted for Ben Dover cause that's what you'll be doing again.
Non-duty disabled Dean pulls yet another fast one!
Miraculously healed!

Rahm is hope Kevin gets in, he can't wait!
Vote for shield not dean !!!!
Don't forget his sister Eileen
Fuck Dean Angelo. He allowed city hall to not pay in to our pension fund for a casino that does not even exist. How much did Rahm offer him to make that deal? Vote Dean Angelo out!
Ugh. We are our own worst enemies. At least Shields was always on the news forcing himself in front of the cameras.

He was also on the news when he sued his own union and took your money.
Dean came off duty disability after over ten years of milking our pension fund, now he can collect the pension of an active person who spent their entire career as active! Wow are you people stupid that voted for him!
Go Kevin
Go Kevin
It's your birthday!
Fuck the FOP SELLOUTS. VOTE Graham Graham
What a fucking pathetic turnout no wonder the Mayor laughs in out face because jagoff copper don't vote. Dean vs. Kevin in the battle of the boobs.
I voted for Kevin Graham, he's not perfect but atleast his heart is in the right place. I think he will do his best. Angelo sucked all the way around. That contract was horrible and anyone with half a brain cell knows it. Dean caved on a ton of things which were in favor of the City and diminished your benefits. Blah blah blah.....he couldn't negotiate because of the letter. We should always go to arbitration, we may not gain but odds are we wouldn't lose as many benefits as Dean gave away. The healthcare issue was BS, they (Dean's Regime) convinced everyone that healthcare was a risk going to an arbitrator. Yeah maybe we would have gotten the Tier system and shitty prescription coverage anyway, but maybe not. Dean handed over your healthcare without a fight because it didn't affect him. Do you really want this fool handing over all your Due Process rights regarding CR investigations, suspensions, call back, and terminations in the next contract at a time when the City and the Alderman want you to have zero rights. You can't even carry a cell phone at work anymore. He let the City off the hook for funding the pension. If history repeats, Dean will give more away. And don't forget the way the City didn't abide by anything in the contract they didn't want too. Clear violations and obvious grievances that the FOP would ignore and hope you go away when it was brought to their attention. Please people use your head and vote for Kevin Graham. No one could possibly do a worse job than Dean Angelo, whose name appears in the dictionary as the definition of fetal.
The Chicago Way and Chicago values. "Vote Early, Vote Often". This is, after all, "The City That Works". In none other than Crook County.
Although I'm sure everything is on the "Up and Up" and beyond reproach, I'd demand an audit of the results to see how many living persons, and persons actually eligible to vote, cast ballots. Just sayin'. sarc/off.
Come on actives!!!! VOTE FOR KEVIN, THAT ANGELO IS A USELESS PUTZ!!!!!!!
That dean was like an old curtain, just hanging there and gathering dust! Come on actives! Let's try a NEW ONE!!!!
Hey Deano do your job and post the Feb and March news letter up on the FOP website. You can't even handle the most simple thing as President of FOP.
Going to all laugh as they appear at meetings all walking up with walkers and wheelchairs! Let KEVIN GIVE IT A SHOT!!!!
Who the fuck voted for Dean Angelo? Are you nuts! He gave us a shit contract and we sure as hell don't want him negotiating this next one. This will be the most important contract EVER! Angelo is way to cozy with city hall. He had his chance and his silence is deafening. We have no choice to vote for Kevin Graham. We need a new president. Plus Marty Prieb is in Graham's ticket. They can do much more when they work well together. STOP DEAN ANGELO!
Hell no to Dean Angelo!! We need Marty Prieb and Kevin Graham together. Angelo gave us this terrible contract. Don't give him the chance to screw us again.
Since Dean will be 63 soon and have to retire in June He should step away from the plate....instead of costing the FOP members a huuuggeeee amount of money for another election. Nobody can ever agree on the greatness of a president....we see it everyday in the news. Dean did a good job. But we need a sworn. Member at the helm... retirees should concentrate on the pension board. HIC. I feel better now...no one else in my house wants to hear my BS
Nice job of campaigning for Angelo Sun-Times. Most of their story is a Dean Angelo campaign statement. Grahams full name was used once and his last name was only used one other time.
Vote Kevin Graham! Angelo had his time and failed. He's silent on everything especially our pension which is the most important issue. Also way to friendly with city hall.
I voted for Angelo and I'll vote for him again. I believe he was the best candidate in the running. You can't hold Angelo accountable for all of the anti police rhetoric taking place throughout the country.
How in the hell does that slime rip off dean Angelo get that many votes? Vote for Kevin graham in the run off! Thank goodness Marty prieb got elected second Vice President!! We can't let Angelo do another term or,negotiate our contract!! Come on all working coppers! Don't let the retirees put that con man Angelo in again! Vote graham! He and Marty will make things right again!
thta is like choosing between syphilis or gonorrhea
Not Angelo. Almost as bad as Shields. Young guys, give Graham a chance. Prieb will work wonders.
I am so disgusted with stupid police officers ~ you got a ballot in the mail with a prepaid envelope and you assholes still could not take a few minutes to vote?! WTF is wrong with you idiots? I sure hope Dean did not get in but if he wins, coppers have no one to blame but themselves..
No Brainer its Kevin Graham for me!
I voted for Jim McGuire. Kevin Graham is the only choice. Dean has got to go!
Looks to me like a No Confidence vote regarding the union itself.
Here is a thought - hold one of THOSE and I bet you get STELLAR turnout....and it would even match the ballots like if Obama was on it (you know, 110% turnout!)
Rahm is sighing a big sigh of relief. He has full support of the coppers union behind him, err, in his pocket, errr, putting loot in his pocket, errrr. well you know.
Teamsters! Sign cards - we need a new union! FOP SUCKS from the national on down.
Not a cop but damn, 10 years on disability? With the massive OT at the 911 center could he at least answer the phones? Just curious how this works and looking to be educated on your process. Thanks.
If you like scammers vote for Dean. Collected $60,000 per year for over a decade from our pension fund and six figures at Calumet College at the same time. This guy stole from our fund he needs to go. How did we let this happen?
who fucking cares... we are fucked either way. The fop is in bed with mayor and the alderman. There isnt a person you elect that cant or wont be bought for the right $ and guarantee of being taken care of at the moment including getting enough, or promised enough to live nicely after they are done play poppet. which a lot better then the city pension and retirement benefits can or will give you.
fuck this place, get yours and fuck everyone else because thats what the next guy will do it it comes down to you or them. Everyone places this blue family BS but deep down inside all each of care about is ourselves.. because thats the only one you are going to have when the shit hits the fan. Instead the FOP takes care of retards like VD who brought allllll of this bs to our front door. So fuck the FOP and every last asshat that thinks a union is good for the police. the teachers union has more balls then the fop
Angelo v. Graham?
They both suck-asses.
The FOP and CPD are finished.
Angelo is a plant. Graham is a carpetbagger.
Graham is all about taking care of Kevin. Commanders office, CAPS office. Did he ever even make an arrest?
Why didn't Kevin get reelected to his State FOP post?
Great to hear Preib won. He will be fantastic for our union, if they just let him do his thing. He was the best person running in this whole election. It's too bad he didn't run for president.
Just glad to see McDonagh lose. You can't do what he did to a hotel room in Springfield and expect to get elected. Go back to your pretend job, loser.
I'm going to vote for graham just to make sure marty gets in that union hall and works down there Day to day. Maybe someone could take the time and explain to a lot of the new guys how it works. How basically the president can bring in his own people and send the others (even if they won their individual elections) back to the district. It's a bad set up and means that really you better vote for the guy with the better slate of people. Hence, my vote for graham to ensure we get Preib.
Boy some many of you are screwed up!
It was obvious you didn't vote.
please don't make a fool of yourself when asked who you voted for and pretend you know who was a candidate.
I know many of the choices were ass-hats but you still could not send a paid envelope in 3 weeks.
It was awesome that retirees lost spots at least some of your read mailer!
Mike shield in 3rd place... cmon guys is he the only guy who you recognized the name.
Im tempted to vote for DEAN so he can give away duty availability for everyone under 10 years! WHY not
ASK the FOP how much a run off cost Dean would have won!
Lets worry about COPA and the suntimes...
Any truth that Dean was talking to the Russians when the vote count was being conducted? ?
1. Mandatory debates posted on FOP website from now on.
2. Mandatory biography of every candidate e-mailed to every member of FOP.
3. Mandatory vote or you loose your membership in good standing.
Kevin Graham vs. Dean Angelo
....I'll take Kevin, baggage and all because it's change from pro body camera, reduce my tuition reimbursement, wishy washy support/non support for President Trump by President Angelo.
Trump is my President and Graham loves Trump.
Congrats to Pat Murray...came on the job with Pat (89-2) is a MAN OF HIS WORD & will be an asset to the F.O.P !
A vote for Graham is a vote to put Donohue and Doherty back running the union and making themselves rich.
Graham invented the graham cracker! He's a freaking genius.
Hmmm I can't understand why everyone is on priebs' jock.. he's never been a real beat copper. Foot guy that complains and bitches when he's put on a beat car and actually answer calls because it's beneath him as a 9161. Freaking joke, go write another book on my life as Devon foot guy!!
You people shouldn't even be able to vote! Graham is NOT a street guy! He went from a foot post to sitting in front of the Mayors house!!!! WAKE THE FUCK UP!!!!
I voted for Shields, hoped to get a vocal President once again. Anything is better than Dean at this point, I hope anyone who voted for others throws his/her support behind Graham. Angelo has allowed our pension to take further hits by letting the city off the hook for payments into the fund. We have the worst funding ratio of all funds in all major cities. We need an advocate for us who will force the city to make their contributions, otherwise we will pay the piper down the line in the form of reduced benefits. Detroit is proof it can happen. It is time to follow the lead of places like Indianapolis, where they are 98% funded. I believe we are 25% funded, and that is beyond frightening. Vote Graham, at least it will be a different approach from Silent Dean.
Anyone but Angelo. What a complete and total LOSER
A vote for Dean is a vote for Rahmn!!!!!
Prieb has written two books, one an award winning book, and both of the books have opened a window to the reality of police work in Chicago. In addition, he has been absolutely committed to clearing the names of several detectives, wrongly accused of misconduct. Martin Prieb is a Champion, Hero and someone who makes us All proud of the Chicago Police Department. It is imperative that he be in the forefront of FOP. He has stood up to Rahm, and stuck his thumb in the System's eye more than once on behalf of other coppers. Baby "G"

Yeah...Just like no copper or other city worker I'd talk to, ever said they voted for Daley.
Yet, he kept winning, and winning.
People SAY things. Then they DO things. Often, the two don't mesh.
Even worse could be if the ladies in the office quit, there would be no person(s) to run the FOP. Think about it, NOBODY!
Dump Current Ticket!!!
Look out to Bridge, Iceberg up ahead on the Starboard Side . We're Fucked !!!!!
last known transmission from the Titanic !
Deans retiring soon how can he be president?
I'm a supervisor and cannot understand why the first thing you guys don't do as a membership is to change the by-laws to prevent retirees from voting. What right does a retiree have to hold a position and make decisions that affect the working conditions of active duty cops. That mazes me, that retirees can shape the board of directors of the FOP. Wow!
Worked with Graham in 019. Nice Guy. Really knows his shit.
Can someone please tell me who Kevin graham is? He nor his team never came to our roll call. Is he active or retired member? P/o or det? Where does he work? Etc.

I think you are giving the president position of the FOP too much credit, no matter who he is. He does not let the city off the hook on the pension. He has very little if any control over the pension. Those changes go thru Springfield and the mayor
Do you really believe any FOP president could have stopped that. Why would he have allowed it to be changed is he had any control. That's way above his pay scale
Is is hard for any FOP president to get changes made when there is a no strike clause, simple as that

So what now loudmouth? The other option is a guy who collected disability while getting paid a 6 figure salary, then gets elected to collect another 6 figure salary. Miraculously recovers, gets cleared after 10+ years of scamming, to return to active duty so he can retire and collect a pension. I've heard of double dipping, this is quadruple dipping. What a role model and leader. No thanks buddy!
Dean will kick Marty Prieb to the side of the road if elected in the runoff because Marty ran with Kevin Graham.
Disability Dean will be retired in 2 months because he turns 63. He cannot negotiate our contract as a retiree.
Election boils down to an active officer who is still on the street versus a 10 year disability scammer who worked a $90,000 a year job as a professor while collecting disability and when given the ultimatum by the pension board to retire or come back to full duty he miraculously came back full duty after bilking our pension fund out of over $500,000.00. Wake up FOP.
If you voted for Marty Preib that vote will be wasted if you vote for Angelo. Graham and Preib ran together and a vote for Kevin Graham assures Marty Preib a voice in the FOP.
Congratulations to Marty Preib. Preib is a fighter, he is a rebel rosier, he also would be the person to push against the city on the various issues that affect the WORKING POLICE OFFICERS. Here is the problem, Angelo would never allow him to be part of his regime. I was unaware that the Union President could pick his own cabinet and disregard the voices of the Officers. Angelo would never have Marty around him every day and the reason is simple. Marty would see what is going on from the inside. Off all of the people who have ran in this election, who actually has fought for the working Police. Now I know what people are going to say, Angelo has fought for us. Has he? How many issues or how many times Angelo has been silent or just given us lip service on the issues that effect us? Have you ever red Preib blog? He has been in the trenches for a number of years now, how many other officers can say that? If Angelo wins and does not allow Prieb in then this would be another indication that Angelo has no part of fighting the establishment. For this reason alone, vote for Graham

Yeah wake the fuck up and put the disability scammer back in office who has not been on the street for 12 years because he was to busy bilking our pension fund out of $600,000.00 while collecting $90K a year as a full time professor who will be a retiree in 2 months when he turns 63. Why would anyone vote for a guy who stole from our pension fund?????????????
This election is active officer Graham (Trump) versus retired disability scammer Angelo (Hillary). Time to drain the swamp. The pension board should be going after Dean for the over $600,000.00 he stole from our pension fund.
I am glad I am retired. A vote for Graham is a vote for Rahm. Marky D voted to endorse Rahm. Elect Graham and the lawsuits against the FOP will again begin. The FOP will be broke in no time. As for Prieb, you might as well voted for a civilian. He never done an ounce of police work. Just ask anyone who "worked" with him.
Dean Jr needs all the help he can get and needs a couple more merit promotions so let's put Dean Sr. back in office so Junior, who lost this election can make merit SGT.
Anyone that voted for Shields is a complete goof. You deserve what you get.
At least Kevin Graham won't steal $600,000.00 from our pension fund while working a full time job for $90K as a professor.
A vote for Graham is a vote to put Donohue and Doherty back running the union and making themselves rich.
3/11/2017 02:32:00 AM
Donahue and Doherty got pension legislation passed that funded our pension at 90% by the year 2040. Disability Dean who stole $600,000.00 from our pension fund just endorsed the latest pension legislation that passed and defeated the previous legislation by kicking the can down the road to 2065 when our fund will be funded at 90% costing the taxpayers of Chicago an additional 20 billion dollars. BTW Disability Dean has not submitted any legislation in his entire three year term of office. He's in Rahms pocket.
There are policemen in this city that have been in numerous shootings, been shot, made literally thousands of arrests, saved lives, and been sued countless times. Angelo' son as a merit detective? Unreal, ridiculous and unfair. That is why I cannot vote for Angelo. Where did he work 014?? Slap in the face to working police men and women. Nice hat in that picture Angelo... you look like a French poet. Weirdo
Can I go on disability if I get a knee brace like Dean?
Who was elected 1st Vice President?
But graham is an active, non detective choice and who cares about his connection to donohue and doureghty. ..those guys know the most and have done the most for the fop period. Including the retirees which is why I don't get why the back dean

How long have you been out of touch with reality??
You dummies that voted for Shields, let's forget the insanity and screw ups, BUT remember he took money from us when he sued the FOP. Ya he is for you, for you to give him more money. He is as bad as shortshanks
Graham is not in the house!!! You people are so stupid try doing a little research before posting.
Graham got my vote. Time to flush the toilet from the business as usual at FOP. If not, decertify them and go with the teamsters, they got their act cleaned up now.
we need to have a debate at FOP hall for everyone running and have a moderator. Let the membership get up and ask questions of the candidates and let us hear their answers. Add amendment to by laws to have elected members only be in the office. Do away with all the vice presidents except one and the sergeants at arm except one. A good way to cut union expenses. After all, the United States of America has only ONE vice president and we seem to have done well all these years.
Vote for Graham=Vote for Prieb

You are correct Dean must go look what he has done to our pension look what it has done for anything anybody he has done nothing all he does is hide apparently you never see him at one time Greg Bella would speak out but he is now known as Quiet Greg also I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him he needs to go also hoping that Kevin Graham keeps him away from any Apple Pay businesses somebody you can trust does not belong up there.

What did Tommy do now inquiring minds would love to know. Tommy was part of the deal with Dean whoever won the presidency would give the other one a beautiful job with the fraternal order of police the fix was in at that time another reason to vote in Kevin Graham if for no other reason then to get rid of Dean and put Marty in let's hope and pray that that anyone that was left from the last administration and is still in a position of any type of authority is not a lot To be in our union hall too much to learn for that person and that person would be we deafly never be trusted. The only person that should definitely stay there 100% is Maggie O'Grady that woman came from the Pension Board that was the only move that Dean made that was great she helped many with pension problems and also when rum decided to cancel the Blue Cross and Blue Shield medical plan for active and retired officers she took a stance took many phone calls and she had to get it resolved.

And how much police work has Dean Angelo done? At least Graham came to work every day.
I second that motion, Dean needs to pay back the $600,000 he STOLE from the pension fund!

Angelo has allowed our pension to take further hits by letting the city off the hook for payments into the fund. We have the worst funding ratio of all funds in all major cities. We need an advocate for us who will force the city to make their contributions, otherwise we will pay the piper down the line in the form of reduced benefits. Detroit is proof it can happen. It is time to follow the lead of places like Indianapolis, where they are 98% funded. I believe we are 25% funded, and that is beyond frightening. Vote Graham, at least it will be a different approach from Silent Dean.

Why are we not yelling at Mike Lappe on the pension board. He is Deano"s lap dog along with City Halls lap dog
First the only thing Dean can teach you is anything you want to know about the medical and how to beat them. Also only one or two retiree should be able to be involved and on the board of FOP. Retirees have very little skin in the game. If Dean and Kevin are the best we can do then throw the towel in and lets change direction and go with someone else.Greg and pension board Mike also need to go. Mikie is a total goof. He's on lite duty and working part time for IROCC at the ranges and has been for several years. Total goof talking stupid every chance he gets.
Anyone that voted for Shields is a complete goof. You deserve what you get.

Shields organized the march on City Hall and he put TD 9.5 on blast with the billboards downtown and on the expressways. The guy has big balls. Without Shields, now we are in a real lose-lose. Are you proud asswipe?
". You can't hold Angelo accountable for all of the anti police rhetoric taking place throughout the country."
Signed your fellow lawman Dave Clarke , I'll riding into town in a couple of weeks on my mangy mare to sign copies of my book, of course all proceeds will go directly to me, I wouldn't give a second thought to donating to any Police cause except my Bank account.
Shields will endorse Angelo!!!!
