About Corruption In Philadelphia

Michael Nutter was elected as the mayor of Philadelphia in the fall of 2007 as a reformist. His platform resonated across a broad spectrum of Philadelphia voters who had had enough of the old school politics and pay-for-play.

The purpose of this blog is to document examples of corruption, chicanery, and plain old bad government in the city of Philadelphia. In my own small way, I want to hold Mayor Nutter’s feet to the fire – will he be true to his campaign promise to address these issues?

I truly hope that he can fix the way that government works (or does not work, as the case may be) in the city of Philadelphia. He has a huge task ahead of him.
