![]() ![]() This needs to happen MUCH more often! Attempted Land Grab Ends With Voters Booting Entire City Council Hackensack's entire city council was booted out of office. The grassroots group Citizens for Change won every single seat on the city council, despite being outraised 2:1. Their slate of candidates successfully ran on a platform against costly litigation, nepotism, and corruption.

Citizens for Change also sharply criticized Hackensack's redevelopment projects, calling them "sweetheart deals and special privileges for politically connected property owners and developers." http://reason.com/blog/2013/06/13/attempted-land-grab-ends-with-voters-boo |
