We were looking through Clerk-Recorder Tom Daly’s campaign expenditures and stumbled upon a very interesting expenditure or shall we say “more monkey business”. In his statements, Tom listed a $275.37 payment to current Clerk-Recorder employee Rosa Chavez for “refreshments for 80 staff” since he knows they hate both him and his minion Assistant Clerk-Recorder Rene Ramirez.
This payment is very suspicious and it appears that Daly is working his staff for votes. Why would he pay an employee out of his campaign funds for something that was done at his work place? As we all know, campaign activity is to be kept out of your county work place especially if you are the elected official. Someone call Shirley!
Can someone please ask Shirley Grindle to take a look at Tom Daly expenditure statement?
This seems very odd that Tom Daly would used his campaign funds.,especially at work during County time.
The more you guys look the more your find. Tom Daly is a crook and should be voted out of office.
The County and its elected Auditor-Controller generally will not allow public funds to be spent on food and beverages for employee meetings, etc. I suspect this is the case here, so Daly funded the cost from his war chest. My gut tells me there is no smoking gun here. There would have been if county funds were used for these goodies though.
Daly should not be paying a current employee for anything. He is an idiot for doing it and bringing more scrutiny to himself. And let’s not give him the benefit of the doubt. Last time someone did he bought a $2.1 million mistake on civic center drive and he hired his friends or friends of donors. No need for a smoking gun this guy has shot himself in the foot enough times already!
