Not only has he not used any of his own money, but he has also reimbursed his bars almost $10,000.
Reeves’ last report only covers up through August 5. We don’t know what he has raised or spent since then. The next report is due on August 19 covering from August 6 to August 18. The way Reeves is spending his money does give insight into how he would handle or mishandle the city treasury. His mailers don’t really say much of anything except that he knows Sheriff Chip Simmons who is supposedly going to unleash some secret crime fighting capability in the city that he has never before used. I’ve studied all of the city candidates campaign finance reports. I’m still a bit stuck on why Reeves was even in Nevada and spent $3 for water as an official campaign expense. A councilmember told me that Reeves (divorced since 2020) put his girlfriend on his campaign payroll as a $2,000 campaign manager, one of two on his payroll in addition to a campaign consultant.
