1![Hi, Lyndhurst. Since the never ending BOE drama has come to a close (almost), I have been and will be slowing down posting on this site for the remainder of 2018, into January of 2019. First, I’m beat. It’s been a long year. But, I am very energized at the same time. For the first time in a long time, Lyndhurst is finally moving in the right direction, one that includes everyone, not just the chosen “power” families and their […]](https://lyndhurst07071.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Sivella-and-Wildes-Cropped-120718.jpg)

![We will never know what the results would have been, had Vinnie Tunnero and John Montillo told the truth and not falsely held Tunnero up as an agent of honesty, ethics and change on the Board of Education. It is, however, likely that many of those who were fooled and did vote for the third place winner, Mr. Tunnero, were looking for a change of direction on the BOE. Is that change represented in the 4th place finisher (after Tunnero) […]](https://lyndhurst07071.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Gaccione-CROPPED-1400x912.jpeg)
![This week’s Observer article by journalist Kevin Canessa is the best coverage yet regarding the odyssey of Lyndhurst Board of Education Trustee-elect Vincent Tunnero. I encourage you to check out The Observer’s Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/pg/TheObserverNewspaper/posts/?ref=page_internal On The Observer’s Facebook page you will find a video containing this clip about Mr. Tunnero’s arrest: At the local newsstands be sure to pick up a copy of the November 28, 2018 edition of The Observer for this story: This is The […]](https://lyndhurst07071.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/img010-1400x735.jpg)

![Most of you have never heard of me. My name is David Sivella. I’ve served as a political operative for politicians around the country. For New Jersey, I have served as a Board of Education member in Wood-Ridge, a staffer in Lyndhurst municipal government, Bergen County government, the New Jersey legislature, the U.S. Congress and in the U.S. Senate in Washington, D.C. The last time I ran for public office was 1999, just shy of 20 years ago.

![Several people have asked about how the seat won by Vincent Tunnero will be filled, now that Tunnero is stepping aside. Here is what I think the process is: The seat will not be vacant until Mr. Tunnero would have begun his term, in January of 2019 (for the remainder of 2018, Tunnero has no seat to vacate, thus there is no seat to fill); In January of 2019, the Lyndhurst BOE will be left with a vacancy to be […]](https://lyndhurst07071.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Image-11-30-18-at-10.18-AM.jpg)
![Since the election there have been rumors running rampant throughout Lyndhurst about Board of Education candidate Vinnie Tunnero and serious legal problems he and his backers hid from the voters in the weeks before the election. I had my private investigator and attorneys track down rumors to obtain the facts, and this morning I received this: If Mr. Tunnero wins a seat on the School Board this week, he and Commissioner John Montillo owe the people, especially those they convinced […]](https://lyndhurst07071.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Montillo-and-Tunnero-Vendor.jpg)
![State law requires school board members to undergo criminal background checks within 30 days of election or appointment. Incumbent school board members do not have to undergo criminal background checks. Under the law, board members who do not complete the fingerprinting process within the 30-day period following election could be declared ineligible to serve in office. If the completed criminal history review reveals conviction(s) for any of the offenses listed in the statute, the individual will be disqualified from office.

As my own children begin to enter the school system, I want to see Lyndhurst Schools continue to improve and give every child the opportunity to meet his or her potential. “As a product of this town, and as a parent, I have a vested interest in securing Lyndhurst’s […]](https://lyndhurst07071.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Gaccione-Family.jpg)
