The Politics Meister

The ironic title of this article was borrowed from the 2004 mayoral campaign of a guy who says he lives at the house pictured in the photo at this link.  That slogan is about to come back to haunt the Conaway family.

Parts of the following story have been picked up by WBAL TV and the North Baltimore Patch. Belinda Conaway makes some lame excuses in the stories located at those links.

For as long as I have maintained this blog I have pointed out the questionsable political practices of the Conaway family and Rikki Spector. Since the 1970′s these so-called leaders have maintained positions of power in the city of Baltimore. People have become so used to the last names of Spector and Conaway that they blindly vote for these people over and over again. Even when controversy starts to rear its ugly head these people are able to maintain a sense of power because of their firm entrenchment and the ignorance of many of the voters.

Over the last few years Rikki Spector has basically admitted that she does not really live in the 5th district of Baltimore that she is supposed to represent. She lives in a condo in what is now the 10th district. The media is starting to question her and people are starting to wake up, but the woman does live in the city of Baltimore. In theory she can play games and hang on to a shred of legitimacy because at least she is in the city still. I think that it is total BS, but it is the reality of the corrupt city we live in. Things will only change if the voters rightfully vote her our of office in September.

Now what if Rikki did not live in Baltimore? What right would she have to serve on Baltimore’s City Council? Yesterday I found out that as shameful as Rikki’s deception is that 7th District city councilwoman Belinda Conaway’s is worse. This document shows that Belinda Conaway has not lived in Baltimore since at least 2006- before she was re-elected to represent Baltimore’s 7th district. If the information provided by Conaway for the document is false then she is guilty of fraud.

Belinda K. Conaway’s married name is Belinda K. Washington and she lives in Randallstown according to documents that she has signed. You can look up “9810 Southall Rd, Randallstown, MD 21133″ on SDAT and see that this house is listed as her “Principal Residence”.

Belinda K. Conaway should immediately resign from Baltimore’s City Council since she does not reside in Baltimore according to legal documents that she has signed.

It is a shame that the media did not realize this obvious Conaway conspiracy a few years ago. Belinda Conaway (a married woman who is over 40 with children), Frank Conaway Jr. (a divorced man who is over 40 with children), and Frank Conaway Sr. all say they live at “3210 Liberty Heights Avenue  Baltimore, MD 21215″ on various official state of Maryland election sites. You can view them here, here, and here.

I have run by 3210 Liberty Heights  and I have noticed the political signs from 2010 ground into the front lawn because they were never picked up. One would think a house occupied by so many politicians would have someone in it who was willing to pick up the signs after November and properly dispose of them (after she spoke with WBAL a witness confirmed that the signs had finally been picked up). On SDAT this house is listed as the “Principal Residence” of Frank Conaway Sr. It is possible that he could live there. The most important point is that Belinda Conaway does not live there according to legal documents that she has signed and in order for her to represent the 7th district which conveniently includes that house in its upper northwest corner, she has to really live there and not in Randallstown.

We all know that Frank Conaway Sr. loves to send out political propaganda with the faces of his entire happy family on them. He has his three bears slate gimmick even though there are four Conaways (Papa Bear, Momma Bear, Sister Bear, and Brother Bear). Oddly enough this link shows that Momma Bear Register of Wills Mary Conaway does not even live with her husband or children. She says she lives at “6810 Cross Country Blvd Baltimore, MD 21215″. It is listed as her “Principal Residence” on SDAT. This link shows that Mary Conaway has given power of attorney to another daughter of hers named Monica Pindle. Here is a link to a political piece from 1990 that shows Monica Pindle on the Conaway-RAWLINGS slate (Pindle’s main qualification back then was being the daughter of Mary Conaway). This document shows that Mary Conaway says she is unmarried! Sounds like quite a family.

Frank Conaway Jr. was first elected to represent the 40th district in the House of Delegates in 2006 despite being a controversial figure. The blinding political power of the Conaway family over the masses has never been more evident.

If you look up 3931 Bareva Rd Baltimore, MD 21215 on SDAT you will see that a man named Frank Conaway uses the property as his principal residence. Take note of the mailing address that is listed on the official record. It is the same Liberty Heights address that the Conaway’s use as their official political address. This Frank Conaway is definitely one of the political Conaways.

I have also found an official deed of trust document signed by Frank Conaway from 2005 that lists 3931 Bareva Road as Frank Conaway’s primary residence.

3931 Bareva Road is located in the 41st district (look it up here) so if Frank Conaway Jr. lives there then he is living in a district that he does not represent. If no person by the name of Frank Conaway lives there then at some point some person included false information on a legal document. Elected officials should not do that. They should have to play by the same rules we do.

So far these are the rules that the Conaways play by:

The State of Maryland says that the following people use the following residences as principal residences and that they receive the homestead property tax credit at every location:

Frank Conaway Sr.- 3210 Liberty Heights Avenue Baltimore, MD 21215
Mary Conaway- 6810 Cross Country Blvd Baltimore, MD 21215
Belinda Conaway- 9810 Southall Rd, Randallstown, MD 21133
Frank Conaway- 3931 Bareva Rd Baltimore, MD 21215

The board of elections says that Frank Sr., Frank Jr., and Belinda live at: 3210 Liberty Heights Avenue Baltimore, MD 21215 and Mary Conaway lives at 6810 Cross Country Blvd Baltimore, MD 21215.

I also found this document from 2010 that says Frank Conaway Sr. is unmarried.

A person named Robin Washington is also associated with 9810 Southall Rd, Randallstown, MD 21133 according to this site.
