My perspective is that I hope that we can appoint somebody,” said Hinze. “It’s cheaper and happens quicker, so let’s find a consensus candidate, somebody we can all agree would be right for the seat.”
During a Stay Classy San Diego podcast interview before the election, Kranz said he favored appointing a replacement to the vacant District 1 seat.
[...]
In contrast to the other three council members, Ehlers said that he would likely not favor an appointment, maintaining that a special election better reflects the will of city residents.
“I want the people to select the incumbent, not the council to select the incumbent,” Ehlers said. “I’m in firm opposition to appointing incumbents. This council has three (appointments) up there already, and we see the problems that this causes with what I call the ‘unanimously wrong’ council.
“The appointment gives an undeserved advantage in the next election cycle with the power of incumbency. Name recognition and notoriety is big, and I don’t think it’s fair to anoint one person who is aligned with the majority on the council over another person who is aligned with the majority of people. And the result of this happening repeatedly is what we have now — you get people all from one side in a supermajority, and they’re out of sync with the people.”

Expect the worst. 47% of you voted for it. Dalakranz.
ReplyDeleteWhen you elect the town dunce you everyone can guess the outcome. Pure failure and devastation for Encinitas. Jack asses like John Gjata and Kathy Lees as well as newbies Mali and Garvin are responsible and we will never forget.
Of course Dalakranz his clown council will appoint the worst of the worst. Encinitas is already doomed to failure for the next two years. It keeps getting worse. First BIA, now town dunce Dalakranz…..
New order of worst mayors in the history of Encinitas:
1. Dalakranz
2. BIA
3. $tock$
After reviewing the Kranz donor list, who is your favorite to boycott?

11-20-22 Note these people on this list are the ones who sank Encinitas. Karma can not come fast enough.
Brett Farrow? WTF? no more support for you. Fool!
Unbelievable freaking losers - all of you that had Kranz signs up should be absolutely ashamed of yourself and you are the reason why Encinitas is being destroyed by developers. You all suck and Dalakranz sucks. Karma can not come quick enough.
Actually, the real losers are the ones who can’t win an election. Imagine getting beat by tony and joy? Stay mad, loser.
DeleteThe real losers are the residents of Encinitas, especially when a loser like Julie gets a loser like Morris to run.
Delete1:04 Stop posting lies.
Delete“Stop posting lies ”. Gotta be a uptight bitch who can’t handle weirdos. Ya know this town used to be cool when we had actual weirdos not the new weirdos in their mom mobiles, chemical bags and rubber lips. The other type of chick is Kelly hinZEEEE. No job, loopy mom and her gallon of water and even larger ego that she projects via her “ look I have a bike” ( that she can’t ride from village🤮park). And we have this new mutant type poser Mali and that crackpot yoga wannabe author Dolly to round out the newcadia trifecta. You poor men who have to date those freaks are most likely some of the better informed posters here. City council is a rip off and a joke. Literal iteration of sad whitey that would make the writers of The Onion proud. You all suck as bad as Morris surfs. And thanks for the narc cameras as well. Nothing says funky like license plate readers!!! I’m sure next week hinZEEEEEE will want an ordinance for her non binary dog and all dogs of color and sexual orientation!! Keep the peanut butter away from sparky you funky bell bottom wearing freaks. #drugs #ghostguns 2 things our outgoing mayor took care of. Bwaaaaaaaaa.
DeleteEhlers first act would be to ignore City Code.
ReplyDeleteNot promising.
You have ehlers confused with “staff.” Looking forward to watching him correct their “interpretations.” Your concern brings me joy.
Delete“in the case of a vacancy on the City Council, for any reason, the council shall fill the vacancy by appointment,”
DeleteEhlers is going to interpret the f--k out of that.
I enjoy the f—k out of your palpable fear.
DeleteI see the City has created yet another death zone for bicyclists on southbound Coast Hwy 101 from Phoebe Street to Leucadia Boulevard.
ReplyDeleteI swear is Kranz literally trying to kill bicyclists and bankrupt the City?
I heard the public testimony from experienced bicycle club members warning the City not to do this and even their own commission did not approve the design, yet Kranz and Hinze voted to approve it. You do not stripe a narrow bike lane between a high speed vehicle lane and parking right in the door-zone. Everyone knows that apparently except Kranz and the other Encinitas clowns.
Now when the first person on that stretch get hurt or god forbid dies, you have blood directly on your hands and tens of million tax dollars out to pay for the lawsuit settlements that could have been used to fix Vulcan Avenue.
You knew it and you did it anyway. That is evil negligence.
Where can I sign that recall?
- Super sad bike rider
They should make cars with clear stuff that allows a cyclist to see if there’s someone in the car who might open a door.
DeleteOh wait.
10:17- wow. You sound smart.
DeleteI’m the kind of smart that rides slow and looks through windows to avoid getting doored. Also the kind of smart that looks under cars for shadows that may represent a kid or a dog that may run out from between the cars.
DeleteRide southbound on Neptune! Ignore that it's one way northbound. It's not enforced for bikes anyway. Totally safe, unlike 101 southbound.
DeleteDon't ride southbound on Neptune, too many powered skateboards and donuts already. Stay down on the highway.....
DeleteAt the mayor's outgoing extravaganza last week Mali Woods-Drake featured prominently, the most dramatic climax of the night left for her to perform when she gave the mayor the key to the city.
ReplyDeleteMany comments were made in general about how the replacement should "represent future residents of Encinitas." Mali's claimed that she represents the future of Encinitas and said get on board or get out of the way. So current taxpayers footing her parasitic bill can just stfu and have a seat.
So my guess is Mali Woods-Drake, bellicose and rank newcomer to Encinitas politics who managed to work into her remarks a fabricated history of her time here, protesting too much to justify her place at the mayor's right hand. Watch Garvin to mastermind Tony's remarks of support for her appointment.
I was there and that is not true. Mali did NOT present the mayor with the key to the city and she didn't feature any more prominently than any other attendee that wanted to share their remarks.
DeleteI am not defending Mali, but I am getting really tired of innuendo and rumor on ALL SIDES that leads to misinformation and false narratives.
Mali has been at Blakespear’s right hand at the last two state of the city addresses, somehow got appointed to the position of VP of the Pacific View School Board, was “handpicked” by the mayor to voice the most disgusting, ignorant, and racist opinions on the equity committee, and spoke on Wednesday of the mayor’s “mentorship.”
DeleteBullshit she isn’t “featured more prominently,” she is the heir apparent predetermined pick for the vacated D1 seat and folks had better wake up to her. She stands for infiltration, not representation.
Well, it's obvious you weren't at the last two state of the city addresses. Just because Mali works her way into photo opps doesn't mean she's "Blakespear's right hand"
DeleteWhatever you’re on it’s interfering with reality.
DeleteThe new Leucadia bike lane death trap sucks. I'm sure we will hear all the sirens and read about the injuries soon.
ReplyDeleteHow many tens of millions do you expect to be paid out in the next 10 years? Maybe $100,000,000? maybe up to $200,000,000?
- Roberta's near death- $11,000,000
- Dr. Worley death -$22,000,000
- Stephanie - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hYU0pceCSY
$8,000,000?
- South Coast Hwy settlements - ?
-Now North Coast Hwy settlements - ?
Encinitas is bankrupt thanks to Kranz.
But God forbid they spend $200, 000 on an election for D1 to replace Kranz who didn’t have the balls to finish out his CC term before for Mayor. The Mayor position is 2 years. He says that already sitting CC members as well as Mayor have no advantage over candidates that aren’t already on the Council so let’s vote on the new council member. If Mali is the new Encinitas, we’re screwed no matter how old someone is. The only reason she can afford to live here is she married an OC firefighter. Their Union endorsed Gunderson. Maybe she should go to the Orange Curtain and fight with them over her BS stuff.
ReplyDelete#Appointless
ReplyDeleteAdd Morris to the list of Mali cheerleaders:
ReplyDelete“I’m cheering for Mali Woods Drake to be appointed. This girl is a redneck nobody who is making all of you look like idiots. She’s a winner and you all are the losers. You all think you are so much better than her (and me), but she’s beating the shit out of you. Why? Because she’s a fighter and you’re not. I am throwing my support behind Mali.“
Kranz, MWD, Garvin, Morris sittin’ in a tree. What could go wrong?
First the Blakespear love letter, then the Democratic endorsement request, now this.
DeleteTotally agree 1:32. All extreme fringe individuals. Might as well add Bhavani into the mix too...what could possibly go wrong?
DeleteDon’t forget Thunder. She’s part of this posse too.
DeleteAccording to our General Plan: The City Council has the ability to appoint a new councilperson for Kranz's seat, and it also may have a special election, according to our General Plan:
ReplyDelete"The city’s municipal code says that “in the case of a vacancy on the City Council, for any reason, the council shall fill the vacancy by appointment,” meaning the council would vote for a new District 1 representative. Three of the five current sitting council members — Joy Lyndes, Kellie Hinze and Joe Mosca — were appointed to their seats by Blakespear and the council.
However, if Kranz’s seat is not filled within 60 days of its vacancy, the council may call a special election."
I say special election. And when Kranz says it costs too much I say BS. He quoted a figure of $200,000. Hell take it out of SANDAG nefarious budget.
ReplyDeleteA few years ago, the residents of a city in this state fired their entire city council, lock stock and barrel. Have we come to this?
ReplyDeleteCould appointing Mali to represent Leucadia, spark this same fire here? I recall thinking at the time that I was quite impressed at the passion of a community's residents that was able to achieve this drastic change.
If it was me, I would include sweeping the planning dept. out too. Imagine us being able to clean house like they did.
If our council appoints another compliant seat filler and doesn't give us the choice to vote, they all should be relegated to the dust bin and fired, lock, stock, and barrel. This crap needs to stop. So much for an imagined democracy in our not so special anymore town.
Council do the right thing for change.
You hate elections.
DeleteIt would only be necessary to sweep out the City Manager, the head of the Planning Department, and Roy Sapau. Problem solved if the whip is cracked by their replacements as directed by the council.
ReplyDeleteSapau has to go.
DeleteWhether Gus Vina, Pam Antil, Kerry Miller, Phil Cotton, nothing ever changes...
DeleteSapau is a sap.
DeleteTony has had no problem spending $600.000 per year on his signature project, the Pacific View School. They also recently voted to thrown more millions at this. $200,000 for a chance at another decent council member is nothing compared to the waste that Kranz has already been responsible for.
ReplyDeletenearly $7,000,000 and that is just a start. You can count on that old school to be converted with by 20 to 30 million for sure. They will try and high the costs by putting them in other projects.
Deletethey haven't even discussed the future staffing and long term maintenance costs yet. Is all these costs really more important then people not being able to walk or ride a bike to Ponto or Grandview?
Let’s put down bets on the first major door zone injury on southbound Coast Highway from Phoebe Street in Leucadia Boulevard requiring ambulance service.
ReplyDeleteI throw out an easy number of a major door zone injury within one month. Hopefully not a fatality but serious enough to be a lawsuit and settlement.
Keeping the two southbound traffic lanes for the four blocks from Phoebe to Leucadia Blvd is acknowledging that the traffic backs up from the Leuc Blvd light. Problem is it often backs up much farther than four blocks. With one southbound lane north of Phoebe, the backups will be twice as long as with two lanes. When the traffic is heavy, drivers will be idling and creeping along for many maddening minutes.
ReplyDelete8:11 pm - you proved your ignorance. It doesn't matter where they are stacked, they are stacked. Whether sitting idle on I5 in gridlock or on Hwy101 in one or two lanes restricted by the light at Leucadia Blvd.
DeleteThe planners blew it and created the death trap.
Suggestion to City- Hire someone that knows what they are doing. Clearly your current kooks do not know a bike lane from a freeway lane.
Door zone issues are old news and for them to even suggest this design is pure negligence. Of course, the town dunce now wearing the mayor 's gown will not notice anything...... Sigh....
I think we need to get Tony a crown. He would be soooo proud to wear a crown. He has dreamt about it for quite a few decades now.....
Where can I sign the recall petition?
8:53 Let's see, are you a moron or an idiot. Double up — you're both!
DeleteNo silly… the town dunce is taken by Mr. Dalakranz….
DeleteI’m just a simpleton.
Tonight Trump called for getting rid of the US Constitution and appointing him emperor.
ReplyDeleteI’m not joking; neither was he.
This is a dangerous movement, and needs to be constantly called out and humiliated at all levels of government.
Thank goodness local voters did the right thing.

DeleteRead it and you’re making a huge stretch. It more about whether the voters believe in the ballot process which is a huge issue.

Fixed bro
Did anyone hear whether Steve Golden got stuck in Holiday Parade traffic?
ReplyDeleteCan we get our town dunce to where a top hat with big white letters reading- “Town Dunce” ?
DeleteI think it appropriate and would show he understands his place in our community.
You candidate lost to a dunce?
DeleteWow.
Must’ve been a terrible candidate.
Not just my candidate the majority of Encinitas voters voted for someone other than the town dunce.
DeleteThe majority know Dalakranz is an idiot and can not stand listening to that idiot talk over citizens all day long.
So in a way, you’re a winner.
DeleteNot in the real world, but in a way that makes the crying stop.
Good for you.
Yes. I am a winner and our mayor is the Town Dunce.
DeleteCan you tell me, Where can I sign the recall petition?
It’s up your ass and to the left.

Any word on whether Jeff and Kim have been affected by the volcano eruption?
ReplyDeleteI’m very concerned about them.
I’m not. I’m sure Stan is disturbing the locals like he does everywhere.
DeleteAs seen on various Facebook pages private and public some very odd bedfellow going on. Julie Thunder in meetings with Mali’s ex roommate and close friend Lee Auerbach? Garvin and Mali holding planning sessions? Predicting Walsh and Thunder support MWD's appointment while Kranz pretends not to know about the planned "let's heal this town" kumbaya moment.
ReplyDeleteNext question's who is getting what out of these alliances?
DeleteFun fact: Mr. Auerbach was a bridesmaid in Mali's wedding.
DeleteUgggg. Where can I sign the recall petition?
ReplyDeleteHere’s a picture of Tony Kranz on the dais in the council chambers on his first day as mayor.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.google.com/search?q=urbandictionary.com+dunce&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari#imgrc=YxhD7__8r0hxQM
So exactly what is Garvin Walsh, with his self-professed big brain, getting out of Kranz? Power to influence what? Thunder is a Garvin close associate, she’s riding his coattails to what end?
DeleteCan somebody post this on EV? I click over there on occasion but cannot reasonably join the ship of fools over there. While there are a few intelligent and good critical thinkers those are very few and very far between

ReplyDeleteThe comment on clapping the hardest for Tinkerbell is a gem and another reason why this site is of value to our community.
Recall Kranz.
ReplyDelete12:43pm For next few weeks you can view the posts on EV without be able to comment.
ReplyDelete2:49- What are you talking about. Everyone assured me Lorri would not really take the group private and dump a bunch of people. Now the dumping has begun. What happened?
DeleteGuess “everyone “ was wrong, eh?
DeleteNobody has been dumped, Loonie isn't going to give up her beloved 1800. EV isn't going private, Pam would never allow it.
Delete1800 members and less than half live in Encinitas. Less than 100 have responded to the latest attempt at ego stroking and asked to remain in the new group. Lorri and her need for an audience will outweigh her desperate concern of people taking screenshots of their bullshit.
DeleteImagine if Tony did the right thing for a change and asked Alex if he would be interested in representing the Leucadia district on the city council.
ReplyDeleteIt may not heal all the damage he has been a part of, but as a gesture of good will, it could help in some small way, mitigate our displeasure with him.
Since he now is belatedly supporting a couple of pedestrian rail crossings in Leucadia, for whatever it is worth after a decade on our council, just go a step further and put Alex on the dais. It would behoove you,Tony, to finally do something worthwhile for your constituents. Whether it would head off a recall effort, well, it could not hurt his reputation and maybe even help in some small way.
It won’t happen. Recall the town dunce.
DeleteThere's no reason for Tony to support appointing anyone who doesn't share his values. That's what voters chose when they rejected Alex in 2020.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but the people who hate Tony, would never vote for him, and donate and work for his opposition in every election would get mad and not support him if he doesn’t nominate Reilly.
DeleteOr something.
😂😂😂
3:25- Care to share what values Tony has? He is a sell out , pure and simple. Catherine was at least intelligent, had a law degree, and even thought I may have not liked her decisions, I could never say she was unintelligent. Tony's claim to fame is his father was football coach at San Dieguito High. He is not a college grad, that I am aware of/ not that is always a sign of intelligence, but it does mean someone spent time trying to obtain some knowledge beyond high school. Tony's first attempt to run for CC failed. His second attempt was supported by developers because they knew Tony would do their bidding. This can all be documented by the way. The problem is the person who could definitely document it, won't. Can't imagine why except after seeing what this blog did to Lorri for 2 different posts, I can sort of see it. I would be gun-shy after all of the posts that were so nasty towards her. Of course, as one anon. poster said , she carries a gun, so maybe that's it. Of course Tony won't let us vote on the D1 position, nor will the Council, as 2 of them were appointed the first time. Anyway, it is what it is and the average citizen really has no say. So let's see what they do.
DeleteYeah by all means take the word of an anonymous poster. SMH.
DeleteThe voters did not reject Alex. Unlike Kranz, he suffered from no incumbency and a lack of campaign funds because he had no PAC or developer support. He had little name recognition. He was real and spoke the truth. He pledged to represent his constituents if elected. IOW, a collection of death knells for a politician.
DeleteWhatever lies you need to tell yourself.
DeleteAlex was a loser with voters.
Lets get something clear:
DeleteThis :There's no reason for Tony to support appointing anyone who doesn't share his values
Really means this:
There's no reason for Tony to support appointing anyone who doesn't share his far left ideological positions like hate, totalitarianism, unnecessary forced medical procedures, bigoted ideas, and dfull on fraud and grift.
Anyone else think this Noel Breen character is total busybody prick? He's giving off Mike Pence vibes.
ReplyDeleteHe lives out of state.
DeleteRemember that time when one party claimed to be THE defenders of the Constitution. We all knew it was BS. But then their hero literally called for getting rid of the Constitution, and not one of those bastards stood up and said a damned thing?
ReplyDeleteYeah.
I remember it like it was yesterday.
Good times.
I’m glad you can have a good conversation with yourself. 😂
ReplyDeleteYou have no comment, huh?
DeletePOS domestic terrorist.

DeleteWeak minded group of people. Also weak of character.

Weak minds. Weak character.
5:57...an American hating leftist nut case. They are the same leftist nut cases that think biden doesn't have Alzheimer's and letting in over 2 million illegals is a good idea and giving a Ukraine billions of vanishing American taxpayers money was smart.

DeleteEverything the left does...THEY DESTROY

DeleteThat’s hating America.
Weak mind. Weak character.
6:09, trump isn't president and I pay no attention to him but, the left is and will continue to be "nut cases".
DeleteSo, to be clear, trump should keep quiet and the left should STOP ruining the United States.
Trump now has an insanity defense - the only thing missing is his golden T-shaped swastika.
DeleteSince Trump pleaded the Fifth Amendment hundreds of times, I’m assuming that’s the one bit of the Constitution he’d keep.
DeleteIt’s funny because he’s a traitor who stole top secret national security information, and then obstructed justice to cover it up.

And Blakespear, the architect of these disasters, was elected to a higher office. Left in her wake is Dalakranz, the syncophant dunce of same. Ehlers is the only one that represents the constituency on the council - the rest are shills of special interests.
DeleteA strong majority 53% of the voters have voted and spoken. They voted against Ehlers.
Delete9:24 In one district, not the city at large.
DeleteSo another 5-0 council? Until Blakespear’s reign I don’t remember 5-0 on every vote. Tony did vote No a coupe of times lately, but he knew the others would vote yes.
ReplyDelete4-1. Ehlers will be the lone martyr.
DeleteLet’s recall Thunder saying how her D1 seat was the most critical in this recent election.
DeleteWrong! It was the mayor’s seat Julie. Now we have Tony, who you secretly supported, and a guaranteed appointment to replace him.
Oh and Julie, the mayor drives the agenda. Do you think election reform, local control, fiscal accountability and more law enforcement will be foremost on Tony’s mind? Nice try loser.
Thanks to you Garvin and the Morrises we’ve got Kranz, more Leucadia project approvals and a homeless shelter coming our way.
10:01- How does Garvin fit into all of this? He has only lived here 3 years., but then again, so has Mali.
DeleteGarvin’s is a right wing extremist who fancies himself an intellectual. He desperately wants relevance and, having run through established residents who were revolted by his support of Kranz, has a found friendly welcome with the E4E crowd. Thunder is following him there. Morris followed him there, having recently declared his support for Mali Woods Drake. Go figure.
DeleteJulie's seat isn't D1
DeleteWhat’s your point? Thunder will follow Garvin’s lead to support Mali for D1. Don’t think so? She’s already meeting with drake’s former roommate and bridesmaid to forge a relationship.
DeleteLet her explain that one to her base. Her claim that she is open to meeting anyone should ring false as it should.
DeleteHas anyone asked Julie what she is doing, or is this just another star campaign?
DeleteShe's gone radio silent but you can try.
DeleteJulie did not support Kranz, and she does not want Woods-Drake for D1. Stop posting lies.
DeleteJulie absolutely supports Kranz as she did since the beginning of the year. Your problem 1:38 is she told too many people for you to call it a lie.
DeleteAnd if she has no love for Mali why is she meeting with a close friend and supporter? To compare notes on which brand of laundry detergent they each prefer? Stop defending and deflecting and get concerned about the alliances she and her pal Walsh are making. That should be your concern.
DeleteIt’s the alliances Julie made last year that cost Encinitas this election and got Kranz elected.
DeleteJust as bad are Julie’s supporters who knew what she was up to and who supported her anyway, once again backing the wrong horse.
We all lost because of their meddling.
I guess this means she’s the next GOP candidate for Governor. She checked off all the boxes for Trump followers. Violent. Attacks Cops. Entitled. Feels there are special laws for people connected to Trump. And Victim.

#3 At a recent Del Mar City Council meeting discussing aspects of the 2-mile tunnel, they are specifically talking about trying to minimize the tunnel diameter to reduce costs to construct. This limits the ability to ship oversized equipment through the tunnel. The article below talks about this exact problem with many of the train tunnels in Switzerland.
https://aw.my.games/en/news/general/transporting-tanks
#4. The design of the tunnel doesn't really matter for the military because the military uses the tracks minimally and the military can easily use tractor trailers and the roads. The giant port of Long Beach is only 75 miles from Camp Pendleton and the port of San Diego is only about 20 miles from Miramar. These are not long distances. Rail is much more appropriate and better suited for moving goods long distances, not short distances.
#5 The military argument is being promoted by SANDAG and its supporters because the data on passenger usage and freight is so low for these tracks. SANDAG regularly states that more than "$1 billion of goods" in freight is moved annually on these tracks, the 350-mile "LOSSAN rail corridor". This is misinformation and an intentional effort to deceive the public. According to the federal Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), the total annual movement of freight in the state of California is about $2.3 trillion, meaning the $1 billion translates to just 0.04% of freight movement in the state. Yet they want taxpayers and voters to spend billions of dollars based on this deeply deceptive claim. And with advances in electric vehicles /trucks and self-driving technology, the capacity of freight movement on the roads is set to get dramatically cleaner and larger in the future. (i.e. autonomous trucks making deliveries on the highways during non-peak and night hours). You can see the BTS data at the following link:

These thoughts represent my own views and do not represent those of Del Mar City Council.
Dan Quirk, Del Mar City Council Member
I will repeat my idea of about a week ago. Since SANDAG is in love with rail and big money projects, let them build a 2nd heavy duty rail line inland from the coast. Perhaps along the I-15 corridor. The 15 goes right by the back door of Camp Pendleton, you could run the rail line there to the border and hook into the existing rail network in South County.
DeleteThe fact that San Diego is dependent on one rail line that is built on geologically unstable ground along the coast is dumb. As far as a source of funding take the money from the train to no where (California High Speed Rail), and put it towards a rail line that will actually get used.

ReplyDeleteYou made the choice to be attack and make up stories, during an election when I had to be quiet? That shit’s over now. Now you get to find out what it’s like to play with a gangster, who will squeeze you forever.
I’ll break you down, fkg constantly. You will understand how relevance is created, and why cowards like you go quiet. I don’t give a rats ass who you are.
You better work on your street skills. “Oh,” you have none. Don’t worry, you’re going to be schooled until you move out of town. This is how cowards learn."
Jeff Morris, on his Facebook page, 12/5/22
To answer his question, Jeff is the bitch.
DeleteAloha, Bitch.
So Morris thinks he would have won?
DeleteGuess he still doesn’t realize he was played by his wife’s best friend.
But let’s face it, both Thunder and Morris betrayed their bases.
Julie sucked up to Tony and helped him win. And Morris played up to Blakespear because he knew he couldn’t win.
Now Morris is typically deflecting and blaming three women who did nothing but call him out for his vile lies and despicable behavior. But Jeff, like Julie is a perpetual victim.
Two losers who deserve each other.
What a loser. Jui Jitsu boy will literally sit down and scoot like a dog with a dirty ass in fight. Some one will get a chance to stomp him, hope it is me.
DeleteYou bitches chose to target Jeff? Have fun! He is by far the gnarliest dude in town and he is 100% full court press. You guys picked the fight with him, but that’s his favorite thing. I’m glad he’s after you and not me. Yikes 😳
Delete🥱
DeleteScootin Stan and the Not-So-Fresh Penguin Princess of Encinitas is the name of my Slightly Stupid cover band.
DeleteLove the name!
DeleteDoes anyone remember who this Morris character is?
ReplyDeleteI tend to forget about losers quickly.
Nope
DeleteYou Anti-KRANZ folks sure are precious snowflakes. 47% or not a win is a win. Why would he put a person openly hostile to his ideals in that seat? Because you people want it? The same group of endlessly whiny crybabies who trash him every single day.
ReplyDeleteYOUR CANDIDATES LOST, and by proxy so did YOU.
This means you do NOT get to set the agenda. Why is that so hard to understand?
So, going forward, field better candidates and present your vision of Encinitas to the public and convince enough of them to back your batshit crazy ideas. NO PARTICIPATION TROPHIES.
Aren’t you uninformed. 4 in a race splits the vote to the incumbents favor. It’s math, genius. The spoiler’s handlers knew it and so did Tony.
DeleteYou have to factor in the ignorance of the voters. The great majority have little to no idea about what's really going on in city government.
DeleteThis is my favorite! You say BLAKESPEAR talked down to the VOTERS (YOU WHO VOTE!) and then YOU go and shit on the CITIZENS of your town who don’t care or chose to vote.
DeleteThe problem is you.
Recall the Dunce.
ReplyDeleteThe Executive Director of the California Coastal Commission has reviewed a proposed amendment to the above referenced permit, which would result in the following change(s):
ReplyDeleteDeletion of the roundabout at Coast Highway 101 and Bishop's Gate intersection and replacement with a stop sign and pedestrian crossing, construction of a decomposed granite (DG) path east of Highway 101 between Phoebe Street and La Costa Ave.
9:47- thanks for the info.
ReplyDeleteWhat nimrod proposed to change a roundabout to an all-way stop?
The shitty DG passing all the wood planks on the east side of the road where are ghetto and falling apart are ready.
Of course, Cardiff gets a well done trail professionally done in Leucadia under Tony’s lack of leadership gets Tijuana style crap.
Who won the right mind would submit this proposed change and where there any public meetings?
Who in their the right mind would submit this proposed change and where there any public meetings?
ReplyDeleteThe posted comments from Dan Quirk, Del Mar City Council Member and -Bruce Higgins post are spot on.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more - why are we caught by surprise 80 years of inactivity later?
"Erosion from waves, coupled with urban runoff, chews away at San Diego’s coastal bluffs at a rate of six inches a year on average, according to local researchers".
That's 40 feet (!) in 80 years. And SANDAG accomplished... nothing. We believe we can somehow influence climate change with expensive projects, but we have shown to be unable to even reroute a few miles of railroad. That project should have started 20 years ago.
-estheranderik
Did Blakespear take her SANDAG credit card with her? Charge it! Embezzlement !
DeleteYes, I fully concur.
ReplyDeleteIn addition to the primary focus of the article - the economic vitality of our crucial existing rail connection to the counties of Los Angeles and Long Beach -
" . . . When data for the Port of Los Angeles is combined with the Port of Long Beach, the two ports handled 31% of all containerized international waterborne trade in the U.S. . . . "
- it should also be important to note that this inept agency, we call SANDAG, is now finally waking up. Rather than paying needed attention to our crumbling (literally speaking) transportation systems, they seem to be distracted by costly projects such as their infamous Bikeway project that has taken years to implement, which is still not complete, but nearing about half a billion dollars (yes, Billion, with a B) for 72 miles of bikeways (mostly just painted lines over existing streets).
Now, the same project (bikeway) manager is heading up the $300M tunnel design (to be clear, $300M for just the design, no construction) to route off the crumbling coast. God help us all.

Where can I sign the citizen's petition to Recall the Dunce?
ReplyDeleteYou can keep asking, but the answer will always be the same.
DeleteIt’s up your ass and to the left.
Good morning Mr Town Dunce!
DeleteUp early for you I see. Good job and enjoy the day.
Try not to do anything today to help minimize your destruction of Encinitas.
Thank you.

Kranz is owned by Leichtag.
ReplyDeleteEncinitas single family home neighborhoods are being razed into rubble and are being replaced by jam packed multi-storied high rises. Or these monstrosity abominations are being constructed in the midst of once quiet neighborhoods, destroying the character of the areas and creating traffic nightmares. Kranz has his signature all over these and the city council the same. Recall Kranz....
Delete1:01pm Only Leichtag? Not even close. He is in debt to many others. He is greatly in debt to us as a community and that will never be paid back. It is not possible for him to make our community whole again. He could do one good thing for our community. Put Alex on the council. I know Margo. Never gonna happen.
ReplyDeleteWho is Margo?
DeleteThe city attorney.
DeleteActs like he is!
DeleteCan someone please clarify the Morris, Thunder, Walsh, Drake-Woods connection and what is exactly happening?
ReplyDeleteIs it really true that Morris and Thunder are selling out to get Drake-Woods on council? If so, why?
I’m sure most of the tin foil hats here will tell you to “do your own research.”
DeleteThen that just tells me it's hearsay. Just as I thought.
DeleteThey are making it up, or at least embellishing, to scare you about an appointment.
DeleteNo tin foil needed just pop on over to Watchdogs and read Morris in his own words - typos and all. Get it from the source brah:
Delete"All of these idiots are CANCERS, and Mali will take care of them. SUPPORT MALI FOR THAT VACATED SEAT!!! She's out ONLY chance of stopping these nutjob women from continuing to lose every election opportunity we have!"
Apparently thinks all Encinitas men supported him.
DeleteLOL - of course he did. All women are cancer/nutjobs to Morris. I'm not on Watchdogs, but Morris lies so much I take anything he says with a grain of salt. What about the rumors about Thunder and Walsh and Mali?
DeleteAsk Thunder directly about her ties to Walsh and their plan to get Kranz elected. Walsh will lie and say he never met with Mali. Except like Thunder, he told too many people about it.
DeleteJust in. Morris has teamed up with Mali. On his FB page. This will be interesting.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but I doubt Mali with team up with Morris. He is the epitome of bigotry and hatred.
DeleteToo bad, she's stuck with him like gum on the bottom of her shoe. Maybe she can provide training on how not to be racist like she offers everyone else?
DeleteBetter her than me. He's more like sh#t on the bottom of a shoe. You can never get rid of the smell.
Delete2:54 does Mali know?
DeleteShe must by now. She’s got eyes in her head and lurks on the blog and fb pages. Plus her good buddies Marco and Garvin will have told her.
DeleteThis is just Jeff acting out like a five-year-old.
ReplyDeleteHis “support” for MWD is just a selfish little weapon to swing at his perceived enemies.
It’s about victimhood and grievance, not not anything rational or logical.
He’s such a fragile man-baby.
Jeff needs endless attention. It's why he ran and why he's still running. He's got nothing better to do, nor is he capable of doing anything better.
DeleteThe election is over. Morris lost and is now irrelevant. Thunder did not support or engineer Kranz's win. The immediate concern is appointment or election for D1 rep. Election is more democratic. It's the voice of the voters. Considering Kranz and the council except Ehlers, appointment is more likely. Appointing Woods-Drake would be Kranz's first disaster.
ReplyDeleteStop it with thunder. She worked directly with Walsh with her plan to shoe in Kranz. As has been noted she told too many people to try walking it back now. You can’t do it for her no matter how many times you try.
DeleteMWD will indeed be Kranz’s first disaster - as mayor.
Thunder 100% supported Kranz. Many knew it. She helped him further along by getting her best friend’s husband, Jeff Morris to run as the spoiler.
DeleteThunder and Walsh, also close friends, seen together at many events and council meetings, while Walsh was bragging about his relationship with Kranz. Thunder was tickled pink to be an insider and thought her win was a sure thing. Tony has the last laugh.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but Thunder has her own agenda and sold out to get elected. Obviously her plan failed. Because of her relationship with the Morrises she didn’t get elected. Because of her meddling in the election, Cremona didn’t win either. Now we’ve got Lyndes and Kranz and an isolated Ehlers. Soon we’ll have another Kranz Klone to lock in the 4-1 votes for the next two years.
Thunder is directly responsible for this election’s outcome and her own failure to get elected. Again.
7:33 & 7:38 Hearsay bullshit. Show the proof. Thunder denies your claims. The term that you misused is "shoo-in." There are no shoes involved.
DeleteNo hearsay, sounds like you just don’t like Thunder’s dirty laundry on display. Thank her, she hung it out for all to see.
DeleteOf course she denies it.
DeleteAsk her why she stayed on Morris’s Watchdog page?
Ask her why she never decried Morris’s abuse of Cremona?
Why did she all of a sudden start outwardly supporting Kranz (as did Walsh and Kim Morris) last year? Or at least until it looked too obvious and had people questioning why you would.
Why did she insist it was only two seats that had to be overturned? Though she said she wasn’t endorsing anyone, she aligned herself with Ehlers.
Why did she claim she really wanted to run for mayor and was mad at Cremona for doing so?
Lots more questions that Julie will do her usual song and dance about to wriggle out of being outed.
Ehlers did not align himself with her though.
DeleteCertainly not after Tony got him fired. Julie didn’t give a shit about that anyway. Played all sides to the middle and Encinitas lost.
DeleteNone of the challenger candidates aligned with the others. Without proof, all the accusations against Thunder are hearsay bullshit. It makes no sense whatsoever that she would support Kranz. That's just silly.
DeleteNo, you are silly.
DeleteI agree. It makes no sense, but she’s best buds with Walsh and the Morrises and she desperately wanted relevancy and to get elected. She figured if she helped Tony he wouldn’t attack her.
DeleteShe was right. He didn’t. She helped him by getting Morris to run. Tony didn’t lift a finger to get himself elected. Morris was put in to do his work for him. All would’ve been well if Julie had won. But she didn’t. Karma.
First of a long line of continuous disasters just like his 10 yrs of disasters as a Councilmember.
ReplyDeleteTo help you prepare expect the worst. Here comes a racist screaming Mali to look at everybody that darrs to enter the city Council chambers…. scream Racist. Racist racist…. Especially those people that are in interracial marriages…. Racist!!
As bad would be John Gjata… then we would literally have the town dunce and robin in the council chambers.
Dunce and Dumber- that’s it!
ReplyDeleteKirstie Alley, Guliani, Criminal Tax Fraud, Georgia.
ReplyDeleteBad week for MAGA. Good week for America.
The majority voted krnaz just like they voted for the idiot newsom and bonta. Stupidity cannot fixed.
ReplyDeleteSadly, stupid people continue to breed. The gawds are
against us. The ones with good sense.
No. you have it wrong. the majority voted against Kranz.
DeleteOur Town Dunce holds the Mayorship against the majority of the voters of Encinitas.
So I heard from the inside of the dance is super jealous over mirror Gloria success.
ReplyDeleteEven with the open calls to the world, homeless crackheads, Encinitas is not receiving as many as homeless crackheads at San Diego.

DalaKranz is very unhappy. So what he’s doing is doubling down and really opening up to welcoming that and is considering offering free drinks and some fentanyl to really get the party started. Stay tuned.
San Diego only has 1700 homeless. Encinitas can do much better and we can help all of these crackheads stop there, raping and pillaging of the surrounding communities. We can’t help we just have to do more. We just need to open a homeless shelter next to your home. Remember to give $30 to the homeless crackhead on the corner. That should attract more. Happy holidays.
Where can I sign the recall petition of the Town’s Dunce?
