Here are the results of a push-poll run presumably on behalf of Kristin Gaspar. The poll finds, not surprisingly, that when told about Roberts' alleged poor treatment of female staffers, voters choose Gaspar.
But what's more interesting is that before the push-poll question, Dave Roberts has a 13-point lead over Gaspar.
Excellent - end Gaspar's political ambitions once and for all!
ReplyDeleteWhat is really messing her up is Encinitas' reputation of immature dysfunctional leadership. Doubt you will find any of these folks moving up the political ladder.
ReplyDeleteEncinitas politics engages in hyper-extension of the Peter Principle.
DeleteSo what this poll shows is that when voters are told that Roberts is the Democraric Donald Trump of San Diego they vote for the girl. She's still an idiot and Roberts is worse.
ReplyDeleteNo question that Dave is the better choice.
ReplyDeleteYeth!
DeleteGASpar is too immature to play in the big leagues. Her time on council has caused much termoil with her colleagues. She does not play well with others.
ReplyDeleteIt's time to send her packing for good.
Vote for Dave Roberts.
Dave Roberts is surely flawed but the Gaspar's are freaks of the the Trump kind.
DeleteThis is what happens when you refuse to debate, and instead rely on bush league political theatrics like she did this week.
ReplyDeleteWeak sauce.
That is standard practice for such a weak candidate like Gaspar. It generally works with a disengaged electorate.
DeleteGaspars need to come clean and state why they were charged with elder abuse. They are nasty people.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the geezers were forced to listen to Kristin - sheer torture!
DeleteEncinitas politics have stooped pretty low in the past, especially with $tock$ presiding. But Agenda Item 10C in the meeting on the 26th sent us to new depths. Kristin Gaspar basically used her position as Mayor to try to smear her political opponents in the last City Council meeting before the election. Based on a charge leveled by one of her husband's cronies. It's unbelievable. And this from someone running under the banner of "Ethics Matter".
ReplyDeleteThis is embarrassing. It's over the top. It's crazy. It's disgusting. It's unprecedented (here).
What are we, some kind of hard-elbowed Mafia-run New Jersey city?
If we elect Kristin to any more public offices (and god forbid a higher office than she has), then we're headed to a bad place. We will truly deserve what we get.
Gaspars - hypocrites of the worst sort.
DeleteGaspar went as low as she could go by putting that item on the agenda.
DeleteBy the way, how did Mr. Hutchinson know about Lisa and Catherine's conversation? Bucky Beaver (Gaspar) and her so-called "Dr." husband were behind it 100%.
Well Gaspars, it backfired on you. You showed every one what kind of people you really are.
Shame on you.
4:50 voting for Gaspar and her ethics would be like voting for a candidate who disobeyed a subpoena from Congress to preserve and turn over emails, then acid washed their server to destroy the evidence, then destroyed electronic devices with hammers to obstruct the FBI investigation, then had her accomplices plead the 5th amendment to hinder the FBI investigation.
DeleteAmerica rotting from the core!
DeleteKristen got killed in the debate with Roberts the night before where he used her voting record against her. Not a good couple of days for the Gaspar's.
ReplyDeleteThat's why she has layed low for the majority of the campaign - she doesn't have the intellectual capacity to debate or defend positions, as she has none, other than those of her monied backers.
DeleteThe Gaspar's what? Which one is the Gaspar? Kristin or Paul?
Delete9:51 Figure it out yourself dummy.
Delete10:26 One Gaspar, two Gaspars. She spells her first name Kristin. Credibility depends on clear communication. If you miss the fundamentals, any point you make becomes questionable.
DeleteEthics matter and Gaspars (Bucky Beaver and the doc) have none.
DeleteIt is astounding that Kristen gaspar received something like $680,000 from two PACSs. Thats a lot of add money...what do these folks want in return?
DeleteQuestion- do candidates get to keep donated money they don't spend?
Delete7:54 PM The donors (developers/real estate interests)want wide spread rezoning for high density, unfettered access to open space for subdivisions and relaxed environmental requirements to rape the land. Thousands of additional housing units are pending to be built in the last of the remaining open areas, regardless of over-loaded infrastructure or lack of water resources. Gaspar is a shill for the mindless continuation of profit driven over-development.
Delete9:44 PM A nose job for Kristin!
DeleteKristin Gaspar's campaign is gasping for air because two Gaspars are not better than one Gaspar... the Gaspars' campaigns have become hopelessly intertwined.
ReplyDeleteAnd let's hope they both lose. That would be consistent with Stocks', Danon's and Bilbray's losses in 2012, which were partly due to changing demographics but probably had more to do with the candidates' sleaziness.
DeleteThe truth is out there: gaspargazette.com
ReplyDeleteWOW. UT endorses Kristin Gaspar. Democratic paper too!!!
ReplyDeleteUT has been Republican for over 100 years .... tool!
DeleteU-T endorsed Issa and Gaspar. Goes to show how wrongheaded the editorial board is and explains why circulation continues to fall.
ReplyDeleteBoth loser candidates. UT sucks!
Delete5:00. There is no differencephalitis between Issa and Peters. There is no differecent between Ryan and Pelosi. There is no difference between McCain and Reid. There is no difference between Obama, and Romney, Clinton and Bush- they all work against citizens and work for their special interest cronies.
ReplyDeleteIs there a difference between Gaspar and Blakespear? Both support upzoning, both support city employees working against residents, both are filled with hubris, both have allowed our roads to fail, both have allowed community character and culture to be attacked.
You can't fix a rigged system by electing the people who rigged it.
Oh geez, a moronic Trump supporter!
DeleteWho - Gaspar?
DeleteThese bloggers still believe O.J. is innocent! No matter what you present to them, they believe what they want to believe.
ReplyDeleteO.J. and Trump verdicts in: guilty as hell.
ReplyDeleteHillary Clinton was ordered by Congress to preserve emails and evidence, Candidate Clinton disobeyed the legal order, destroyed emails and acid washed the server to destroy evidence and obstruct the FBI investigation.
ReplyDeleteThe FBI ordered Hillary Clinton to turn over electronic devices. Hillary Clinton disobeyed the order and allowed the devices to be destroyed with Hammers.
That is how little Hillary Clinton cares about all Americans. To support Hillary Clinton is to suport a criminal
9:42 If any of that is true, why didn't the FBI prosecute?
DeleteYou are dangerously stupid.
Watch out 9:42, Trump is coming to grab your privates!
Delete9:53 Sadly, many are uninformed. Our culture no longer promotes critical thinking. Some blindly trust for profit infotainment.
DeleteHillary Clinton was ordered by congress to preserve her records and turn over her devices. Hillary Clinton and team destroyed evidence, acid washed her server, destroyed electronic devices with hammers. During the FBI investigation Hillary Clinton team members took the 5th before the FBI to hinder and obstruct the investigation. These are all facts on public record.
To support Hillary Clinton is too support a criminal.
More can be learned by reviewing recently released emails.
Emails show a "shadow government" was set up to monitor FOIA (freedom of information requests) to protect Hillary Clinton and keep voters in the dark.
There we learn John Podesta express delight that Congress was focused on the server and not "the classified material" on the server.
There we learn about the hundreds of millions in pay for play "donations" sent to the Foundation.
There we learn of the collusion and secret private dinner between ABC, CBS, CNN, the NY Time , The Wash Post and the Clinton campaign to review "messaging" before Clinton launched her campaign.
There we learn of Politico staff emailing John Podesta , the NY Times giving Clinton editorial oversight on 'messaging', CNN giving Clinton questions before debates.
There we learn of the $ 1 million dollar bribe Qatar gave Bill Clinton on his birthday. We learn John Podesta owned 75,000 shares in a Russian company owned in part by Putin.
Perhaps scariest of all, in released emails we learn that Hillary Clinton's campaign staff and supporters wanted "to create an uninformed and compliant citizenry"-
Sunlight is the best disinfectant.
All politicians are the same - the sheep are beginning to wake up and realize that they are only there for the slaughter.
Delete6:26 Go to Dr. Paul Gaspar to have your mental disease treated.
Delete6:26 has his holidays mixed up. Today is Halloween not April Fools Day.
DeleteIn detailing his vast conspiracy, 6:26 forgot to say that the sky is falling.
"ordered by congress to preserve her records"
DeleteNot to be pedantic, but "records" has a specific legal meaning here, that does not include personal emails. A Subpoena from Congress can compel someone to produce records with a specific use, time frame, subject matter, or sender/receiver. But it is the duty of the respondent to filter the response to provide only what is required by the subpoena.
In other words, if there are personal emails mixed in with records that fall under the subpoena, Congress cannot require the production of everything and let Congress decide what records are relevant to the subpoena and which are not.
It would be really stupid to knowingly withhold material email records from a response to a subpoena, because emails never exist only in one place. The probability that someone else produces the record you tried to suppress is very high.
This latest trove is either a huge bombshell that demonstrates intentional withholding of valid records from a subpoena response, or it is a total nothingburger of material that is redundant to the earlier submission. It's likely one extreme or the other.
Another interesting (to me) side note. If you retain records for longer than required by law, they can still be used against you.
DeleteFor a type of record that the law requires you to retain for, say, 5 years, they can subpoena as far back as the court will allow them to go and if you still have access to the records, then you must produce them. In the design of Records Management policies and systems, it is very important to schedule destruction of records when no longer legally required. It's not shady, and it doesn't mean you are trying to hide anything. You just never know how your own information might be used against you in the future.
9:53,
DeleteAs inexplicable as the FBI's initial decision was, 9:42 is correct.
http://www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed/la-oe-goldberg-comey-protocol-20161031-story.html
Correct about what?
DeleteCompared to Trump, Clinton is an innocent babe in the woods.
Destroying phones with hammers is punishable by a four game suspension.
DeleteIs there a "shadow government" at Encinitas city hall that works to keep information from the public? History says yes, the Nichols road report is an example. The true cost of the Shaffer Krantz proposed tax increase with Ms. Lew is another.
ReplyDeleteIs there a shadow government at Encinitas City hall that works to manufacture false data to mislead citizens? The answer is yes, the coordinated effort of MIG, City Staff and the mapping exercise are one example.
News out today Donna Brazil of CNN and head of the DNC colluded to provide the Clinton campaign questions before CNN debates with Bernie Sanders. Two examples cited included Roland Martin questions, and a question during the Anderson Cooper/ Don Lemon moderated debates.
Is this how the government "creates an uninformed and compliant citizenry"
If you misspell the players' names, nothing else you post is credible. You have revealed your carelessness. You're just another nutcase who hasn't done his homework.
Delete12:11 Only in your weak little mind.
DeleteThe shadow government, does that include complimentary puppets?
Delete12:11
ReplyDeleteWow, CNN just fired Donna Brazile, head of the DNC, over Brazile conspiring with the Clinton campaign team to rig the debates by providing Clinton debate questions before hand.
Why didn't Clinton turn Donna in? Why didn't Clinton say Donna, this isn't fair to the American people to give me the questions before hand, please don't do it and come up with new questions.
I wonder how the Clinton debates moderated by Lester Holt and Martha were rigged?
Bullshit. It's incumbent upon the organization hosting the debate to secure access to the questions--not the campaign or candidate.
DeleteIf there's a leak, it reflects poorly on the leaker and the host org, not the candidate.
In this case, Donna B. was fired as a talking head because the leak embarrassed CNN, and she refused to tell them who was leaking.
She's absolutely within her rights to protect her source, and CNN is within their rights to stop using her as a commentator.
Why won't Trump release his tax returns? Why won't he admit he groped the 10 or 12 women who came forward to say he did? Why did he stiff so many contractors who worked on his construction projects? Why has he grossly exaggerated his contributions to charity? Why didn't he prepare for the debates? Why does he refuse to study domestic and foreign policy so he can talk intelligently about them? Why does he color his hair and glue it in such an elaborate combover?
Delete"The network noted, however, that Brazile resigned from her CNN gig on Oct. 14, and that she hasn’t been a paid contributor since she was made DNC interim chair in July."
DeleteIOW, today's "severance" was grandstanding.
Its all rigged dumbass. The corporations knew exactly that they were selecting puppet Clinton from the get go. The uniparty knows best- remember that. Let the games begin!
DeleteOne of my favorite Kristin Gaspar mailers is the "real" 0-1-2-3-4 Homeless Recovery Plan.
ReplyDeleteHas anyone given this product-of-a-one-hour-high-school project a look? It is so empty and lacking of any workable proposals that it is laughable.
Rather than considering her 0-1-2-3-4 proposal for the County, one could consider the reality of Encinitas' 0-1-2-3-4 Homeless policy.
0- We want zero homeless folks on the streets of Encinitas!
1- if you see one, call the sheriff!
2- - sheriff to tear their bags apart. "do you mind if I search your bag?"
3 - Send them down the road. You can't stay here - there are no services! Thank you for your service, now move along!
4 - Cocktails and skin care tips!
That's as far as the bimbo can count.
DeleteAs CFO of Gaspar Therapy, she apparently failed to file taxes on time. She is unqualified for any office.
Delete5 - Meet in secret gatherings to sell bonus density merits. Pick up invite to Meyer Christmas party.
Delete7:27pm-
ReplyDeleteDarn. I want to change my vote to support Gaspar now. Thanks!
Gaspar was wielding a shovel at Moonlight Beach the other day - hopefully she was burying her political career. Muir was there because he thought they were breaking ground for another In N Out! Shaffer was practicing shoveling for her next newsletter. Kranz was trying to bury the deed to Pacific View. Blakespear showed her legal expertise - shoveling the BS.
ReplyDeleteAll celebrating spending about $7 million of taxpayer money on a building that should have cost about 1/3 of that, including the bond debt payments.
DeleteForget about that, how 'bout the evaluated 3 million dollar surplus school property Tony, Catherine and Lisa have turned into a $29 million dollar debt machine that eats up all the dollars that should be spent on public safety. Whine about that if you need to whine; which you apparently do. What? Your hungry? Follow the homeless from Kealani's to Glen Park for a freebie. Shaffer should be forced with Barth to clean up that mess every morning.
ReplyDeleteMoonlight Beach brings in $40 mil a year to this town: the Marine HQ is an appropriate investment, unlike Pacific View.
Blakespear was not on the council when the Pac View decision was made.
DeleteThere were two appraisals at public-semipublic zoning. One was $3.something million, the other was $7.something million. The average was $5.something million.
The point about the tower at Moonlight is that it should not have cost $3.73 million. That's $730 million above the bond issue, and it doesn't count the interest on the bonds.
1:32 ----- I'd like to see the accounting on how Moonlight brings $40 MUSD to Encinitas. Sorry, the number is pulled from your own someone else's hinder.
DeleteMarine HQ is a naked indulgence - a tower would suffice. Create your Baywatch fantasy own your own money.
How does the Marine HQ enhance Moonlight Beach? People will flock to the beach because they feel more secure? Not likely. It is a luxury item and even has facilities for the Sheriff - why deploy a deputy (ies) on the beach when you have lifeguards? Part of the HQ's touted upgrades were an enhanced 911 response time - this should have been adequate to contact the cops. This city throws money around like it grows on trees - maybe the council needs to plant more of them with those shovels they were wielding for the photo op.
ReplyDeleteDa sheriff is always looking to be paid for bikini patrol. Keep the trolls patrolling!
