Longmont Report

Lurch to the Left: How the new Longmont City Council is already out of control

Richard Juday (left) and Coun-uhhh-umm Councilman Brian Hansen (further left) celebrate the November 2007 victory of Longmont City Council's new "Gang of Four" radical  anti-business, anti-growth Liberals. They won with a collective 47% of the vote - not exactly a mandate.

What have they done since? We'll tell you, and it's only going to get worse, especially if Richard Juday wins election on January 29th. READ ON AND LET'S LIBERATE LONGMONT!!!

The prolific Richard Yale has an excellent post, excerpted here and linked below. Yale's recent YourHub piece speaks volumes: "Boulder's Gang of Four on Longmont's City Council were elected on an anti-developer political cause. Soon after achieving a voting block majority Longmont Mayor pro tem Karen Benker gave the Key to the City of Longmont to a development consortium far more powerful than Longmont's sovereign Housing Authority making her a proxy vote for the City of Boulder on Longmont City Council..."

The astute Yale also exposes the Boulder-centric corruption of election system by the Gang of Four in this letter to the Mayor (excerpted here):

"Councilman Hansen and Council candidate Juday clearly are in violation of the letter and spirit of the strict liability law requiring full disclosure 41 days before the elections they are engaged in and did not do it. Councilwoman Benker made it clear in open forum last night she is calling the shots on election law interpretation last night, not the Charter Authority responsible for all law enforcement..."

Analysis of Richard "no donations" Juday's shady campaign donations and soft-money slush fund

A funny thing happened on the way to a non-partisan City Council election...The Boulder County left-wing nut machine got fired up and they told their friends and so on,and so on, and so on. Well, we looked up "non-partisan" Juday's donors, and who THEY donated to (Download juday_donors_as_of_1807_in_excel_copy.pdf ), and it's obvious he's a tool of the Boulder Democrat machine.

First let's congratulate all these apparent MENSA members from out of town who donated.  Then, look at all the Longmont Demoncrat leadership who took the time to funnel cash to Juday. Funny, since RIGHT HERE on his website Juday promised not to take contributions (thanks to Stephanie at www.takebacklongmont.blogspot.com for saving his deleted page)...

I wonder if they took advantage of that convenient paypal donation link at Juday's "soft money" website:  whatsinitforlongmont.com (by that sniveling ninny hack, Doug Wray)??? And where's all that slush fund money going, Senor Juday? Campaign finance inquiry, anyone?

Here's the deal on the out-of-state donors:

Gilmer, Patricia MD - Olympia, WA; Turnbull, Harold - Fallbrook, CA; Beltz, Anne - Boulder, CO; Voss, Janice - Houston, TX; Daiuto, Brian - Palo Alto, CA; Zimmerman, Claire W - Houston; Severson, Bob - Denver, CO (?)

AND FINALLY, what about this coincidence? Juday's campaign war chest -- you know, the campaign cash he said he wouldn't take -- is being funded by NO LESS THAN 80% of the new Longmont Democrat Leadership - not bad, Dick!

The following officers were elected to serve in 2008:
Marilyn Hughes-President - JUDAY DONOR
Bob Roy- Vice President - JUDAY DONOR
Jack Wolfe-Secretary - JUDAY DONOR
Bob Norris-Treasurer (must have missed the memo!)
Pat Davis-Member at Large - JUDAY DONOR

Finally, let's take a look at the other campaigns Juday's Democrat donors  -- oops, I mean, "non-partisan paragons of the community" are funding...
