Masty Huba Posted June 14 Report Share Posted June 14 From what I'm told there are no big primary elections in Broome County this year. But next year if he decides to run again, Tipsy Joe Mihalko will be in a Republican primary election and face a strong Democratic challenger. It's time to clean up the BC Clerk's office!

wedgehead Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 Masty Huba , It would appear you have some personal gripe with Mr. Mihalko? Maybe you were turned down for a job at the DMV or are a disgruntled ex-employee? The BCVoice community would love to hear, in detail, what your personal issue is......the vast majority of Broome County residents think Joe has done a great job with the DMV, it runs much better now than when his predecessor had it. Neighboring Counties have modeled their DMVs after Broome ,which to me is an ultimate compliment to the work Joe has done since taking over. The DMV employees are more knowledgeable of their jobs because they have received proper training. One of the employees said proper training was a main focus by Mr. Mihalko. Please lists specific issues you have or keep quiet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This spring I was at the DMV and there were 3 or 4 windows open, and none of the employees had a clue what they were doing. Every question was referred to one person sitting behind the counter. If you mean 1 out of every 5 employees are trained you would be correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that you took the time to make explicit notes and counts during your visits, most of us don't pay attention to what others are encountering at various windows of the DMV. I frequently and primarily use the Endicott facility and have excellent service there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you and Richard Blythe was a much better leader Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masty Huba Posted June 19 Author Report Share Posted June 19 Who did Tipsy Joe Mihalko hire to fill one of his top deputy positions? One of his drinking buddies from the west side with no DMV or records management experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never spoken with him. Couldn’t pick him out in a crowd. It’s irrelevant whether I (or you) ‘like’ him or not. Unless you truly enjoy hanging out at the bus station/DMV, your concern should be whether the DMV is reasonably functioning government service. It functioned under Fiala. It functioned under Blythe. And it’s functioning under Mihalko. By what I can tell from the survey posted above, forty-four out of 197,117 residents overwhelmingly declared their disapproval with the DMV. To help boost DMV approval, I suggest we spend more government money to include free Philadelphia Sales popcorn and hot air balloon rides to make every trip to the DMV a family fun event.
