This just came across the wire from Lee Ramos for Costa Mesa City Council 2014:
Lee Ramos Raises More Than All Non-Incumbent Candidates Combined
Has More than Double Cash on Hand of Non-Incumbent Candidates Combined
(Costa Mesa, CA) – Campaign finance reports show Lee Ramos far outpacing all other non-incumbents combined in the race to replace termed-out Costa Mesa City Council Member Wendy Leece. Ramos raised more than all non-incumbent candidates combined. The majority of money Ramos raised for his campaign has come from Costa Mesa donors.
Having already walked to 75% of the homes in Costa Mesa, the Ramos campaign juggernaut is firmly ahead of all other non-incumbents with both more dollars raised and more homes walked.
“I am honored by the outpouring of support from throughout Costa Mesa, as I’ve met thousands of residents personally walking to their homes,” Ramos said. “I am humbled that so many Costa Mesa donors have contributed to my effort to make our hometown an even better place to live.”
Subtracting out loans, Ramos has double the cash on hand of all other non-incumbent candidates combined. With loans included, Ramos has triple the cash on hand of all other non-incumbents combined.
Of all Costa Mesa candidates in the November elections, only incumbent Mayor Jim Righeimer has outraised Ramos. Subtracting out loans, however, shows Ramos has more cash on hand than even Mayor Righeimer. Mayor Righeimer is running for re-election while Ramos is seeking the seat held by termed-out Council Member Wendy Leece.
The clear front-runner for Leece’s seat, Ramos is endorsed by:
- U.S. Congressman Dana Rohrabacher
- California Board of Equalization Vice Chair Michelle Steel
- Ambassador George Argyros (Ret.)
- Costa Mesa Mayor Jim Righeimer
- Costa Mesa Mayor Pro Tem Steve Mensinger
- Costa Mesa Council Member and former Mayor Gary Monahan
- Former Costa Mesa Mayor Jack Hammett
- Mesa Water District President James Fisler
- Mesa Water District Vice President Shawn Dewane
- Mesa Water District Director Ethan Temianka
- Entire Costa Mesa Planning Commission
- Majority of Costa Mesa Parks and Recreation Commission
(partial list)
A resident of Costa Mesa since the age of four, Lee Ramos serves on two Costa Mesa City committees. Ramos and his wife raised their family in Costa Mesa, where he grew businesses, managed companies, and served as an educator. Ramos is a well-respected community leader, having volunteered not only on city committees, but also for the Self-Help Interfaith Program, for the First United Methodist Church, and for the Estancia High School football team.
