Another Mardy’s Munchies CD2 Flashback Moment

LIES Probably the best question asked at any forum – especially given how much the residents of CD2 HATE the negative mailers.  (Are you hearing that Essel & Krekorian campaigns? These folks don’t respond well to them. It turns them off big time!) What are some of the lies being told about you in this [...]

Another Mardy’s Munchies CD2 Flashback Moment

Carpetbagging!                                                                                                                               The issue which won’t go away.                                                                      By now we are all aware both Christine Essel and Paul Krekorian moved into the area to run for the CD2 seat.                                                                           See what happened when they were asked when – prior to this election – did either candidate last live in CD2?

Another Mardy’s Munchies CD2 Flashback Moment

THE SOHA BOMBSHELL The November 18, 2009 SOHA Forum included what I like to call “that special SOHA seasoning” we had from their primary forum – Candidate to Candidate questions.

And Now For Something Completely Fluffy

Negatives ads can backfire. It’s that simple. Not only do people HATE them, often they see the images, and completely miss the message. One such ad showed up Friday at the VILLAGE TO VILLAGE office.

Time for Essel to Break Ties with the IBEW

I drafted this post before the Working Californians’ lawsuit was dismissed.  However, the message is still meaningful.  _Paul Hatfield Despite Chris Essel’s position to support the creation of an independent Rate Payer Advocate to protect the public from irresponsible management practices of the DWP, she needs to do more: she needs to publicly condemn Working [...]
