JUDGE RULES RSM CANDIDATES & DEVELOPER MADE 6 ILLEGAL STATEMENTS IN OFFICIAL BALLOT ARGUMENT

Petrilla, Chadd and Daichendt Violated California Elections Code

September 2, 2014 • by OC Political Watchdog

OC Political Watchdog received a press release today confirming Orange County Superior Court Judge Kirk Nakamura just ruled that Rancho Santa Margarita City Council Candidates Jesse Petrilla and Donald Chadd, and developer Joseph Daichendt, made six illegal statements in their official Ballot Argument in Favor of Measure Z—a controversial ballot initiative seeking to rezone a portion of the RSM Auto Center. The judge ordered the Registrar of Voters to remove the false statements before they are printed and distributed to voters with their sample ballots.

Measure Z is opposed by every Mayor in the City of Rancho Santa Margarita’s history – and by a majority of the current City Council. William Furniss filed a petition with the court seeking to have the false statements stricken so that voters would not be misled.

Webb to Win for RSM!

Posted on 12 August 2014.

By John Webb:

I’m very pleased to announce my candidacy for City Council of Rancho Santa Margarita, California.

The City of Rancho Santa Margarita is a jewel. The management of the city over the previous years has been excellent. So the question, why run and why not leave things the way they are?

First, our family has been so blessed. It would be a pleasure to give something back by joining the leadership of a great city for the next four years. Second, change is necessary to keep any organization sharp. Companies like Beneficial Finance, Arthur Anderson and recently Compaq show what happens when you leave the same management in place for too long. Adding a new face to the City Council will add a new way of addressing issues, different ideas on budgeting and a different mindset. Continue reading→
