Kerfuffle over candidates' party registration

 From the Inbox:

Kranz/Blackwell/Preston's more rabid supporters are trying to make hay against D1 challenger Luke Shaffer for his mistake in thinking he had chosen NPP but instead registered as AIP (the word "independent" hooked him).  As it happens, according to a 2016 NPR news article, 73% of California voters registered AIP actually think they are registered NPP: Voters Often Confuse 'American Independent' With 'Independent' Party : NPR.

Here is Allison Blackwell, not new to politics - she is, after all, Deputy Mayor - "was surprised" that for 21 years, she was not a registered Democrat.  When she finally did register, it was just this past December.  How's that for the epitome of an opportunistic switch to get all the goodies the Democrat party has to offer in supporting her candidacy?





Scratch her being "actually surprised" she was not registered Dem all this time.  From January 2023, she advertises herself as NPP when she was going for the D1 council appointment:

  1. Actually Luke has never said he was duped or confused.

    The fact that he refuses to clarify makes it all the more likely that he knowingly joined this far right extremist party.

  2. Allison Blackwell never joined a radical fringe party, so the analogy is just wrong.

  4. From the inbox:

    Here's a weak ass attempt to distract from the real story. Luke Shaffer was caught lying, is a member of the alt right and probably committed fraud. Luke hasn't made any attempt to explain his actions.

  5. AIP is a purposely confusing moniker that people can mistake for an independant designation if they are not filled in. I personally think it was a mistake.

    Replies
    1. What do you think about his supporters claiming they saw proof he was "independent" right before this all came out?

      It seems possible that Shaffer was careful not to refer to himself as NPP, but did use "independent" a lot. It seems there are many interpertations of that word politically, and AIP may not be the only one taking advantage of that.

    2. 2:01,

You know, stated a year ago she was one party acts shocked today to see she is a different one. Marco is remarkably silent on this.

  11. Luke isn't a challenger if Allison isn't the incumbent. He's just a candidate like she is.

  12. Residents supporting Luke don’t care about this. They care he isn’t a Kranz appointed follower who votes with Kranz/Hinze/Lyndes over 90% of the time.

    It’s extremely worrisome to the malevolent duo that Bruce, who’s out raised them all, has partnered with Luke and Jim.

    Bruce will give them some good guidance too. It would be incredibly refreshing to topple the hold this wasteful and inept council has on our city.

    Anyone notice in that Coast News article how little Tony has raised and his graph chart line was in pink? I’m sure that at least made Garvin happy.

    1. Oh, you can gaslight everybody or try to. Those of us who have bothered to meet Luke know that it was an honest mistake and he is none of those things. His wife is a Democrat. He was a lifelong Democrat and his parents are as well, so just stop. Probably Marco he specializes in gaslighting not as effective as he once was, definitely losing steam with the over reaches.

      Also, the more people who hear the name Marco Gonzalez instinctively make the stink face, so any influence he thinks he had is definitely on the wane.

    2. Agree. Marco smells as bad as 🐷.

      Luke could be a woman for all I care, as long as it’s not Destiny.

    3. 6:15 You're right, residents supporting Luke won't care. The undecided voters absolutely will. I really want Bruce to win but he made a huge mistake joining up with Jim and Luke given what's coming their way. Bruce is going to take serious damage by association.

  16. For the 20th time for those slow or their name starts with an M… and I mean, the female version more than the male….
    Luke registered as the NEW AIP https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/political-parties/party-statements

    As far back as before he even filed he would’ve been the first to tell you he is not a Trumper as much as you want to try so incredibly hard to make him be that he’s not. He’s 100% of free. “independent” thinker! His wife is a Democrat! His neighbors a neighbor's are a diverse group, and it doesn’t matter to him because city Council is supposed to be non-partisan!

    During his campaign, he spoke to how our community and our nation is being destroyed by the two party system. I sure hope someone has that video and posts
    it.

    Lastly, if you were there tonight for Bruce’s M&G with Luke and Jim and the 60+ maybe 70+ Leucadians he did not shy away from any of this! The momentum is huge behind him!

  19. This isn't a "kerfuffle". This is Luke lying about his party affiliation (whether his affiliation was on purpose or not- that's still not clear). That's it; Luke lying about being affiliated with a far right party. It doesn't matter if his supporters don't care, the point is that he misrepresented himself over and over. Typing "what about allison?" won't change that fact.

  21. Luke has never said joining the AIP was accidental.

    It would be easy for him to say that, unless he’s had private conversations over the years promoting the AIP. If that happened and he claimed it was a clerical error, then people would come out of the woodwork exposing him as a liar.

    Therefore, the most likely scenario is that he was intentional in his membership in a fringe far right nut job party.

  29. "In our nation’s 248-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump," Dick Cheney said in a statement. "He tried to steal the last election using lies and violence to keep himself in power after the voters had rejected him. He can never be trusted with power again."

    “As citizens, we each have a duty to put country above partisanship to defend our Constitution. That is why I will be casting my vote for Vice President Kamala Harris,” he added.

  30. In case you missed it, Trump was asked recently what specific legislation he would propose to make childcare more affordable.

    What follows is his answer in full. This is elder abuse to allow this obviously suffering old man to embarrass himself in public. Shame on those who enable this abuse.

    “Well, I would do that, and we’re sitting down—you know, I was, somebody, we had Senator Marco Rubio, and my daughter Ivanka was so impactful on that issue. It’s a very important issue. But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about, that—because look, child care is childcare, it’s—couldn’t, you know, it’s something, you have to have it, in this country you have to have it.

    But when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to—but they’ll get used to it very quickly—and it’s not gonna stop them from doing business with us, but they'll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country. Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about, including childcare, that it’s going to take care.

    We’re gonna have—I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time, coupled with the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country, because I have to stay with childcare. I want to stay with childcare, but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I'm talking about, including growth, but growth also headed up by what the plan is that I just—that I just told you about.

    We’re gonna be taking in trillions of dollars, and as much as childcare is talked about as being expensive, it’s relatively speaking not very expensive compared to the kind of numbers we’ll be taking in. We’re gonna make this into an incredible country that can afford to take care of its people, and then we’ll worry about the rest of the world.

    Let’s help other people, but we’re going to take care of our country first. This is about America first. It’s about ‘Make America Great Again.’

    We have to do it because right now we’re a failing nation, so we’ll take care of it. Thank you. Very good question. Thank you.”

  52. 12:12pm. Is that all you can come up with. You know what that means?

    It means your fearsome choice of a democracy ending autocrat will not be accepted by a staunch lifelong republican who qualifies as a war criminal for his misdeeds.

    It means your party of choice is bankrupt, morally and in every other way, and is as un-American as it comes.

    If the right wingers have lost the Cheney's, and they have, your upcoming debacle will just as likely be ignored too. It must be communism. Could there be a more ignorant statement?

    When this poster has been asked to define communism, it is always ignored. Little doubt as to why he never addresses this query posed to him repeatedly.

    No one can question his loyalties, even when they are as Un-American as the right wingers have become.

    Wait and see how your traitorous leanings turn out come election time.

    We will either continue to be a democracy or we will descend into an autocracy. These are our choices. Where will you stand?

  54. Why does Allison engage in magical thinking or written contradictory statements as to her party affiliation. I have never supported the gnome attack or any name calling, but now I am beginning to wonder if there is something to it. Also, as an HR manager, how many times has she called some fearful employee into her office and scared them to death for similar infractions?

  55. 12:28pm Did Jim and Luke refuse to debate the seat fillers?

    The chicken sheet seat fillers did.

    2. No one has addressed the Luke issue, which was the original problem. As a reminder, that was: Why is Like Shaffer registered as a member of a ultra right wing party member when he labels himself as "independent" when campaigning?

      Is he a liar, or did he make a really really stupid mistake? Voters don't know, and Luke refuses to clear up the confusion.

      Delete
    3. Luke can't address the Luke issue. He knows the appointed ones got the goods on him and they're just waiting for him to deny it. Better to give non answers and hope voters don't notice as he charms them.

    2. That is not my experience with him at all. People who have met Luke find him charming and attentive to residents' concerns. The same is true of Jim O'Hara. He is a good listener and is easy to relate to. Votes for Allison, Destiny and Tony are votes for BIA and continued contributions to Marco's income stream.

  62. The put-up council majority candidates knew they could not survive a public debate. Plain and simple.

    The League of Women Voters always has been and still is, non-partisan. Anyone opposing that undeniable fact is compromised and full of what they have allowed the fraction of what is remaining of their minds to become.

    Look at the funding sources for the current council promoted seat fillers.

    1. Who were/are the proposed alternatives to the LWV?

    2. The minute the league took volunteer help from residents who donated to the candidates, they lost all credibility. This from a democrat who has spoken with other Democrats, who are also unhappy with what are at best really bad optics.

      Did they have to go there? Not enough league workers to staff their debate, really? Theresa put yourself in the other side’s place if you can for just an instant. Stop gaslighting and minimizing what is at best an appearance of bias. Can’t you and the league do better than this?

  65. Encinitas voters are looking for a clean sweep to get rid of Tony and Allison and to bring in actual citizen representation in the form of Mayor Ehlers, Luke and Jim. These three wish to preserve L7 as a park rather than see it developed. Let's replace those who pander to the BIA and other special interests with involved citizens who wish to listen to their neighbors and act in our interests.

Christie and Golden immediately started to promote them. None of those people are demanding to know who's behind it which means they KNOW who it is and they're on their side. Which also means there is absolutely NOTHING non partisan about it.

  74. Density is an arrogant opportunist, playing the I'm a black victim card. I take pictures of me at the SRT, instead of meeting with the residents! Why would anyone vote for this carpetbagger that knows nothing about our city, that doesn't live here, that is clueless about the families and the children that live here. She is cheating gypsy that is so unstable, she has to use an airbnbush as an address. Her crazed thinking that b/c, she visited Carlsbad when she was young, or that she grew up in LA, entitles her to run for City Council, is insane. Encinitas is made up of 54% families, with 0.49% blacks. Where does she get off thinking that she's entitled to make decisions that will affect 20% of our family oriented community? The D-machine plucked this one from Sac, for a repeat failure of the entitled, immature bully living at grandmas oceanfront property, demanding that everyone get on a bike. No matter how many children/adults her agenda has set up to be injured/killed, they don't care. I want to see that ignorant bully on a bike with her two kids, her grandma and mommy, and their wheelchairs strapped to her back, running errands. Do any of them ride a bike around town, or to the City Council meetings? NO🤣🤣🤣 Now, she has picked this entitled, conceited know-it-all, b/c she will vote all the way BIA. hairybush stay in Sac, Arcata, Oakland, Palm Desert, South LA, wherever? Just get the hell out of our town, and leave us the alone.
