This week No Boss Mayor PAC challenged the Better Pensacola PAC to release their financial report for the first campaign reporting period. Jeff DeWeese, Better Pensacola treasurer, not only met the challenge but has pledged to release his daily deposits to their campaign account and any in-kind contributions.
Today’s Deposit – 11/5/09:
Today Believe in A Better Pensacola deposited the following contributions:
General William L. “Spider” Nyland, USMC (Ret) $100
James J Reeves, Former State Representative and CRC member $1,000
Mick Novota, Realtor $100
301 W Government, Investment Company $200
Comer Knight $50
Total: $1,450
What has No Boss Mayor collected since its report?
Popularity: 27% [?]
James, you are wrong. The Believe in a Better Pensacola is far more transparent than the NO Boss. They (NO Boss) have refused to list their supporters to date. They do not want us, the voters, to really know who is behind them and we must ask why?
The pro-charter group only disclosed their supporters because the no boss mayor challenged them to do so.
Supporter list speaks volumes.
If you want a run down of who has contributed what you can go here:http://www.voterfocus.com/ws/wscand/cand_srch.php?c=escambia
enter “NO BOSS MAYOR” in the committee name search box.
And enter “BELIEVE IN A BETTER PENSACOLA” for the pro crowd.
Or just search for contributions starting in October.
But you will not see a daily update.
Well, $3,000 or 1/2 the No Boss total reported amount came from a loan from Charles Fairchild, the former Save Our City leader….
Where is the No Boss money coming from? They showed very little yet I have received a mailing and a call from them. All of this costs money. Looks like Fairchild, a constant naysayer is funding the entire effort. My guess is that they are afraid to show their contributors because we will finally see that this negative fear and smear false campaign is run by just a few individuals who have held Pensacola back and benefited monetarily from status quo.
