Surreal moments from the Menlo campaign trail

Who is investigating Bohannon, Cline, Robinson and Keith for potential violations of campaign finance regulations?

It has further been noted that Mr. Bohannon has hired workers to distribute, along with Measure T literature, campaign materials for Cline, Robinson and Keith. What is the fair value of these services; has this been reported by the candidates and/or Mr. Bohannon?

The party invite (that was sent to me) did not say anything about candidates receiving assistance, which is very strange content to put in a party invite. Maybe Sandy received a fake invite from the No-on-T campaign. Sandy should contact the person that sent her the fake invite and get to the bottom of this.

Boohannon: please put some facts here before asserting a violation of campaign finance disclosure rules.

Donations and campaign expenditures after October 17 and which are under $1000 must be reported by early January, but no sooner.

You have presented no evidence that there was a failure to properly report campaign expenditures by the October 16 deadline by Ohtaki, Cline, Robinson,Keith, or the Measure T people. Please refrain from making accusations which are not supported by facts.

I don't know for sure where Sandy got the invite, but I posted a few days ago the invitation for all to see:

It is at:

It certainly is not a fake. On the other hand, it I wasn't the one invited, for reasons I really don't understand.

Thanks Morris. That sounds like a fun party, but where did Sandy get the statement?

"...all three received assistance from the Bohannon camp during the campaign, according to the party invite..."

The party invite (thanks again for the link) does not say any such thing.

Bohannon was dropping Ohtaki's fliers too (Ohtaki finally decided to endorse T about a month ago. But the Bohannon combined literature drops started *after* the last campaign reporting period ended.

I am sure that if the rules require it, Bohannon and the four candidates will report whatever is necessary.

The Yes on L people and the No on T people were carrying their favorite candidates fliers door to door too.

Perhaps so, Mr. "Nothing," but the "No on T" people are VOLUNTEERS, not like the hired guns used by Mr. Bohannon, and there is nothing wrong with their also volunteering to support various candidates. This is unlike the case with Mr. Bohannon; since he used paid mercernaries, the proportional value of those services should have been reported as campaign contributions to Robinson, Cline, etc.

Russ Peterson's quote made me smile. Chuck and Peter might want to try dialing back the super-seriousness and try a little humor.

in the last few weeks of campaigns, state laws from the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) require reporting any donation or expense greater than $1000 within 24 hours.
maybe Bohannon and his many paid consultants think the rules don't apply?
