Pension Board Election Results
The election results were released:
- Saul Del Rivero - 2,400
- Eugene J. Roy - 2,152
Roy promptly filed to contest the results according to numerous e-mailers.
Last we had heard, there were more retirees than active officers - almost 1,000 according to reports we can find, so voter turnout was even worse than recent FOP elections.
UPDATE: There were no ballots - there was a letter mailed to your last known address with instructions for on-line voting.
We got one and if there was anything on the outside of the envelope that made it stand out in our memory, we don't recall it.
UPDATE: Yes, it was ONLY for retirees as the Retiree spot was open. Anyone else wouldn't have gotten a letter.

Who didn't receive any ballots.
Love how i never received a ballot!!! Fucking pieces of shit!!!
What can we do! Pray that our pension holds up.
Most Officers NEVER received any info about this election or who to VOTE for!!!!
Thus, the low turnout and the DemocRATic Chicago way to run an election!
Nice job Mopes!
Damn according to everybody that posted Roy was going to win in a landslide
if you don't vote you should not bitch
Better call Saul
Thank God Roy lost! He always has been a loser, self promoting know it all and now add to his personality a cry baby.
Approx 14000 retirees
OT…check out what happened to former CPD, now former Grand Rapids Chief Eric Winstrom. What a loss for Grand Rapids. I worked with Eric when he was here and he was a great guy and excellent cop. Eric, if you read the blog, enjoy Florida. At least they will appreciate you down there
Same people who didn't vote on this didn't vote on the mayor or POTUS elections but will still bitch about how things are fucked up
Roy is just a fuckin loser..pack it up and go home, no one likes or trusts you!
Wait, maybe its just like any other election in a DemoRatic State..they suspiciously find another 1000 uncounted votes in a box under the table.
Congrats Del Rivero.
I see so many posts about those just riding it out because they are retiring soon, and others who are loving the job because of the overtime pay. But they don't show up to vote on things that directly affect their lives that they have some level of control of. Sadly the same thing happens with political elections. Just sitting back and letting others tell them what to do with their future. Sad.
Once again given the opportunity to vote but poor showing. Please don’t complain.
You didn't get a ballot. you got instructions to vote on-line or by phone. What happened to that?
I'm out in the country surrounded by poverty and voted online. May the winner do the best for retirees.
I voted on line. Received voting info in mail at least a month ago🍻
Seems to me that the old fix, by Johny BOY, was in I DID NOT receive a ballot. I'm assuming someone filled out the ballot for me, you know the old saying "By hook, or by crook!" the chosen candidate has got to win.
I live four states away from Shitcago and received clear instructions how to vote. I cast my vote for Saul on 07 February. The fighting 47th couldn’t fix this one , Roy.
No ballot, No info , Nothing
Never got a ballot
I knew Roy had no idea who the other guy was…. I voted for the other guy
I got two flyers in snail mail about candidates and link to vote.
I thought the election was only for retirees?
We dodged a self-inflicted bullet. My personal experiences with Roy leave me to believe that he is a terrible human being. Yet still almost half of the votes were for him. How easily swayed is our membership? SCC...next election open up a post and let the members read and write about their personal experiences with the people who would hold our FOP and Pension offices.
100% agree
How do you know that " most officers never received a ballot " ?
There would be more retirees voting than active. Its an election for the retiree representative not active representative of police officers
And came in your email, also.
Roy cannot be trusted! The Silver Spoon boss would not have the members best interest in mind. Self serving, self promoting, do as I say; not as I do boss that no one liked or trusted. Good riddance.
Retirees have time to vote and do other things, the working P.O.'s are out there chasing that dollar. Stay safe and make it to the finish line.
If the working / retired ratio is true we are in big trouble.
Not much of a choice, couldn’t vote for Roy even though my life depends on it. Little man, big Jag.
Not true. A few of Roy’s superfans chimed in, but that didn’t mean Roy was going to win.
Woohoo!
Roy, take your smug face somewhere else.
The ballots were emailed to everyone who has an email on file. I would bet a lot went to spam. They followed all the established and printed rules as far as i can tell. Not sure what his gripe is. There are more blue shirt retirees than white shirts. Too bad gene. I spoke with one former boss who told me he was voting for that moron because he was a fellow exempt. These are the low iq people that ran/run this job
Sure glad the DemoRat didnt win!
I moved to Michigan after I retired. Winstrom was highly regarded over here, he will be missed in GR.
As opposed to a guy who didn’t even put 20 years on, and left the state for 10yrs without sight or sound? Then never even addressed why he was running or a platform personally??
It’s called personal responsibility they knew an election was occurring just to lazy to look into it. Sorry no one is going to beg you to vote.
Please stay on topic.
Everyone one did, some people want to have someone walk them three everything.
Gives them something to complain about.
What does the FOP do for retirees?
I’ve previously received ballots in my department email account. I received nothing by mail or email indicating an election was occurring. First election I’ve ever missed in my 26 years.
Pensacola What a dump of a city. Who would go there.
Wtf are you talking about…he voluntarily left on good terms
his bio said he "headed the city-wide sex investigation unit" (SIU) he was a sgt there, but there were also a Lt. and a commander . plus there were a few of the girls there that had him wrapped around their fingers, but he would never hurt anyone
Woah! Just hold on a second!
Gene is the BEST thing ever for Law Enforcement! That’s why the news asks him questions! That’s not arrogance, that’s him being the best!
And since you’re reading this gene- maybe you deserve worse- like herpes.
I received my ballot by regular mail.
Already got 20 years out of the pension, hopefully it last till I kick, but then I give a fuck.
The election results are in and they raise serious concerns.How does someone who has been gone for 10–12 years suddenly reappear and win a seat on the Chicago Police Pension Del Rivero never attended a meeting, knows nothing about the makings of the pension fund including Tier 1& Tier 2. Retirees ? Now he will sit alongside “Brenda” and Brian Wright making decisions that affect every retiree.We are told that approximately 2,400 votes were credited to Saul del Rivero after tabulation by Survey and Ballot Systems. Yet many members believe those votes were cast for Eugene Roy.
If there is nothing wrong, then Release the raw numbers. Conduct an independent review. Show the membership exactly how these results were calculated.This pension fund belongs to the retirees who built it — not to political insiders.Transparency isn’t optional. It’s required.Let the investigation begin. JCat is in bed with the pension board. When are the FEDs closing in? JCat will drain our money. Arrest the bastard already!!
It explains it, in my lawsuit, Eric Winstrom’s Declaration and Exhibits was the only documents that were accurate and truthful; Case: 1:17-cv-02028 Document #: 90-14 Filed: 07/12/19 Page 1 of 11 PageID #:1235

Got cola got ssi……you are either dumb or an evil union busting jerk!
I know from first hand experience that white shirts inappropriately side with each other on disability and discipline……sick
Continues to collect their money
Forgets them the second they quit paying their monthly dues
Seems to me we knew too much about one candidate, and not enough about the other. Passport information processing
I knew and worked for Gene a couple of times in my career. That's why I didn't vote for him. Could've trust him then, no way I'll trust him with my pension now.
I voted as a retiree and voted for my Deceased retired Father. Only the Chicago way to vote!!
I'm retired, moved out of state, got my email to vote and I did ~ for Saul !!
Good question
I voted but I have a serious question? In the end, does it really matter who is in this position? The mayor has the majority. And no board member can force the city to adequately fund the pension. What influence does the retired member really have? The whole thing is really upsetting when you hear the fund is 22%
The same thing it does for its members...NOTHING!!!!
Y'all get the representation that you deserve.
I'm a 10 year IBEW guy, my new shop wants to unionize, everyone wants the bennies, nobody wants to put in the hard work. I won't risk my job, just for some clique to install their cronies. No way. No fucking way.
OT: This young man is a hero. He stood strong for ICE and LEOs. I hope this goes beyond viral. Good for him. I hope charges are filed and the loser lib has to watch great conservative and pro LEO videos for at least a year.

Again there were NO ballots. It was a letter you probably assumed was junk. I called my vote in.

Wyf are training these a$$holes
I approve that message
me
No guts, no glory. Elect the right people!!
Retirees got their letter with instructions on how to vote online or by phone. It was for retirees so they were the ones that got the letters. Not that difficult to understand
Why all this nonsense about people not getting the letter or email? How or why would they withhold ballots because they would have no way of knowing who you were going to vote for
"Not sure what his gripe is."
The gripe is a lot of coppers do nothing but beef, particularly about topics they know nothing about because they don't pay attention. Look at all the "I didn't get a ballot" posts in this thread, despite the original post saying that everything was emailed.
I received the email & voted accordingly. Clearly I'm not the only one.
As far as low vote counts go, I'd rather only people who know what's going on vote. In general elections too.

go to a union meeting, union caters to them
No one got a ballot. The voting was done online or by phone. If you really wanted to vote, you could have found a way to get it done. But in typical lazy Chicago cop fashion, you come here to whine.
Progressive politics forced him out
Eugene was my Sgt in 013 years ago ~ he was a moron then and still a moron now.
Roy Is always only about Roy
Got the email, got the mail
Voted on line
Yeah, I had to rearrange my busy schedule to take that 2 minutes to vote online. Then I went back to my nap..
Good luck guys. You turned down a stroke who understands finance for a DEI hire who couldn’t handle his weapon. My 40 year as an RN wife often spoke of some of the most miserable, conceited, standoffish physicians she came across in her ICU unit and she also remarked that she wouldn’t consider anyone else but them if our family were in a tight spot. Same here. He was best for this job. I’m no Roy fanboy but you guys just made a big, big mistake. Methinks demographics is destiny and this pension board election bears this out.
The Ol’ Man retired at 63 and got ‘em for a full thirty years-as a captain-before he finally went to that Great Bank Vault in the sky…
Yeah. And some of us were white shirts because we’re simply smarter than you are.
SSC did exactly that. Pay attention “patrolman for life”.
If you have to be told who to vote for then you shouldn’t be voting. Wtf
“Yet many members believe those votes were cast for Roy”. Many members are idiots. If you know Roy or ever worked for him you would never vote for him
Yeah, but those physicians aren’t dummies. You certainly can’t say the same for Roy.
Signed Roy
Agreed. Might not like or care for, but at least you get an independent thinker, not a JRat clone.
First time for everything I guess.
Your guy lost.
Too bad, so sad.
Cry harder about it, maybe that’ll help.
Grand Rapids is a commie town full of shrill shit libs. Better off in FL.
you have to be some what intelligent to be a doctor you can be a mentally challenged idiot n be a cpd police exempt
I found the entire matter somewhat disturbing. It seems anyone could announce their candidacy and get on the ballot. i received an letter in the mail with instructions on how to vote along with my password and a bit of a biography of each candidate . Nothing more. I was hoping the FOP would hold a forum and give the candidates a chance to speak and answer questions, but nothing like that happened. I think that people were just tired of the same old same old and went for the new guy. There is not much the elected people on the pension board can do about the pension.The die is cast. The newly elected member should not come out and make some sort of statement.
Of course those physicians aren’t dummies, they’re draining our funds.
Grow up Demon Dave. Your day is coming!
Anyone who’s met Roy knows he’s not even close to being an independent thinker. As a matter of fact, he’s not a thinker at all.
Grand Rapids sux. Lots of Park Ridge type AWFLs.
Because you're too stupid to vote anyway !
Why doesn’t Roy retire and run to be president of his HOA? He can wear a badge and write people up for having lawn knomes on the front of their property.
get over it,Roy may be more qualified, but he's an arrogant sob,stupervisor. so many sat out or voted anyone but roy. roy had Southside support, was Saul a northsider?? never heard of him, with less than 20 years, no vote from many.
gene is all about gene n the desk dollies
Now that’s funny
