Deborah Pauly + Campaign Finance = Uh-Oh!!!!!
Posted by HBK on April 9, 2012
Hiring a campaign treasurer is not a bad idea for a political campaign to do. Some people look to hire Lisa Ray, Kelly Lawler, or somebody else that is not Kindee Durkee. If a candidate decides not to hire a treasurer the forms are fairly easy to figure out. However, in some situations you see certain campaigns finance reports that are a train wreck.
Deborah Pauly had some issues with her campaign finance report and also some other interesting factoids that I will point out.
1) The report was due on March 22nd yet she signed her form on March 29th. Tis shows that she was a week late in even putting her form together and based on the report and the lack of activity it is confusing as to what could have possibly taken her so long.
2) The form was turned in over a week late on March 30th. This will likely draw a fine from the FPPC as this is likely to have been forwarded to the appropriate desk at the FPPC from the Spitzer team. Again, why does a form with so few contributions require so much time to put together.
3) She has less than $2400 cash on hand. This should be pretty self-explanatory to readers.
4) $450 contribution received from Marilyn Davenport … yes, the same Marilyn Davenport who sent out the racist Obama email.
5) One person involved with CRA who has seen this has commented that it is possible that she purposely turned in her form late so that she wouldn’t have to explain her lack of support during the CRA endorsement meeting.
Todd is clearly going to win this race, the question really comes down to what the margin of victory is on election day.

Dear HBK,
Understand that you have full authority to right whatever you want, but could you at least maybe try to write something on a different issue. I know a lot of stuff that is going on in Orange/VP that is outside of the 3rd District race.

No kidding, you know what else isn’t a bad idea? Writing about a single topic over and over and over and over and over again. I didn’t even read this article because all “HBK” writes about are insider rips on Deb Pauly that a lot of people probably don’t even understand, if they do understand they don’t care about them.
HBK is officially the most irrelevant author on this site.

I understand, and I care. A large part of the relevance of this race (in spite of the fact that the outcome seems certain) is why there is a race, and deciphering what it means to the party at large. The contribution from Marilyn Davenport is very relevant. The voice that Ms. Pauly has or thinks she has, in the party now or in the future, is going to depend a lot on how she conducts herself within the context of this race. Her approach to it thus far has been odd at best. Thanks for your attention, HBK.

I can’t believe this woman is running for Supervisor. I remember her hateful remarks about Muslims and how divisive she is. There may be a small group of people in Villa Park that agree with her brand of bigotry and insensitivity towards others but she won’t fly in other parts of the OC. Is there an organized opposition beyond the Spitzer campaign? We need an “Anyone but Pauly” campaign. OC has been a laughing stock nationally thanks to clowns like her on and off for years, I hope we’ve finally outgrown it.
