Whelan talks a good game when it comes to ethics and good government, but as an Assemblyman, Whelan voted against common sense reforms, like stripping convicted public officials of their pensions. http://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/ |

AC Press: Whelan "Particularly Disappointing" |
|
When Whelan ran in 2005 for the Assembly, he said we needed a Democratic voice in Trenton. In July of 2006, we figured out what that meant when the Camden Democrats who are now supporting Whelan’s campaign shut down the casino industry. The region lost $55 million in revenue. The Press of Atlantic City called Whelan’s performance at the time “particularly disappointing”. http://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/ |

Whelan's Ties To Convicted Felon |
|
When it comes to Whelan’s record on ethics, look no further than to the support he gave convicted felon Craig Callaway. In 2005, the Atlantic County Democrat Committee paid members of the Callaway gang at least $34,877 in weekly pay checks to get votes for Jim Whelan. Also, the Atlantic County Democratic Committee sent $42,472 to the Callaway’s organization that year, with Jim Whelan being a primary beneficiary of the money. |
