Downtown, Rob Black in Joint Attacks on DalyPaul Hogarthbyline‚ Oct. 05‚ 2006As downtown business groups spend tens of thousands of dollars to promote his District 6 candidacy and attack Chris Daly, Rob Black filed a complaint on Tuesday with the Ethics Commission that accused Daly of spending $573.05 on "fluff campaign pieces" with taxpayer money. The complaint centers around seven letters that Supervisor Daly's Office sent to various constituents last August, describing his accomplishments at City Hall and the work that he is doing for the District. None of the letters mentioned that there is an election coming up in November, nor did they ask for a vote. Black's complaint comes at a time when Daly supporters have requested the City to investigate an avalanche of independent hit pieces attacking Daly and promoting Black. |
