Campaign Funds

Okay, I read in the paper that Mr. Brown had 230 signs stolen from various yards, that adds up to about $460. Also, he had two mail-outs at a minimum of $1000 each which adds up to $2000. Add that to the $460 for only the stolen signs and you have $2460 that he has spent on his abysmal campaign, which is about $1,560 more than he has disclosed. Don't you think that there is a problem here? Mr. Brown, you are a cheat, liar and pompous fool who thinks no one notices your indiscretions. Let's have someone in authority look into this sooner than later. Had someone opposing Mr. Brown had this obvious gap in contributions versus spending, this would have been in the forefront of any discussion Mr. Brown had. Since Mr. Logsdon hasn't run a mudslinging campaign, you wouldn't hear this from him.

Looking for Group VI...

Submitted by Reality Bytes on Thu, 11/17/2005 - 5:06pm.

Man, I'm looking and looking, and I just don't see Group VI in there. And if you're going to say Rick Schlosser, that $250 must be the 'over the top' big business funding that the Logsdon campaign needed.

So - PTC Guy, Investq, Steve Brown, Joe Swanson, etc. - where, oh where are the big business contributions? Where's the financial influence?

By comparison, Steve Brown has three contributions at $100 or more.

Very telling

I've Got It!

I was just sitting here minding my own business talking to a client when it hit me! I know how to resolve the DAPC debt.

Took a look at the campaign disclosure forms and saw that Harold has raised by far the most money. We get Harold's campaign to lend some money to the city, who lends it to the authority, who pays the bank, who gratefully acknowledges at least partial payment. The sheer good will will make the bank forget about the rest.
