While we're talking about election campaign finance reports

This is the document portal for viewing campaign finance reports mentioned in an earlier post.

https://documents.alleghenycounty.us/publicaccess/DatasourceTemplate.aspx

It is a little tricky to search for school board director candidates. Under Select Search Type, select Campaign Finance Reports from the drop down menu.  Leave the Candidate/Committee Name section blank. Enter 2017 for Report Year. For Office Sought, enter School Director.

To find their campaign committees, under Select Search Type, select Campaign Finance Reports from the drop down menu. Leave the Candidate/Committee Name section blank. Enter 2017 for Report Year. For Office Sought, leave that blank too.

The first group is the Cappucci Caste Remely Birks committee.

Campaign Finance Statement - MT LEBANON SCHOOLS COMM FOR OUTSTANDING - N/A - 2ND FRIDAY PRE-ELECTION - 2017
Campaign Finance Statement - MT LEBANON SCHOOLS COMM FOR OUTSTANDING - N/A - 2ND FRIDAY PRE-PRIMARY - 2017
Campaign Finance Statement - MT LEBANON SCHOOLS COMM FOR OUTSTANDING - N/A - 30 DAY POST-PRIMARY - 2017

The second group is the Riemer Strotmeyer Diamond committee.

Campaign Finance Statement - MT. LEBANON EDUCATION FRIENDS OF - N/A - 2ND FRIDAY PRE-ELECTION - 2017
Campaign Finance Statement - MT. LEBANON EDUCATION FRIENDS OF - N/A - 30 DAY POST-PRIMARY - 2017
Campaign Finance Statement - MT. LEBANON EDUCATION FRIENDS OF - N/A - 2ND FRIDAY PRE-PRIMARY - 2017
Campaign Finance Statement - MT. LEBANON EDUCATION FRIENDS OF - N/A - 30 DAY POST-ELECTION - 2017

I see that Mrs. Janice Frioni did not "give a ton of money" as a previous anonymous commenter claimed. She made a contribution of $450 on October 30, 2017. She was not the largest contributor of either campaign.

I am glad that someone brought up the election campaign reports because there appear to be some violations. The CCRB committee failed to file a 30 Day Post Election Campaign Finance Statement. That is a no-no.

Another big no-no is the illegal campaign contribution accepted by the CCRB committee. Under no circumstances can they accept contributions from businesses. The RJL Group, LTD contributed $100. See page 24/42 of the Campaign Finance Reporting Law

The treasurer of the CCRB campaign is also the treasurer of Outreach, at the recommendation and request of Mary Birks. Also from ADMINISTRATION CAUGHT IN COVER-UP UPDATED

Elaine Cappucci's longtime campaign treasurer and friend is Nancy Dapper. Nancy's daughter just got a dream teaching job with the Mt. Lebanon School District. Surprise! I'm sure it's just another remarkable coincidence or is this a pattern of behavior? Is this best for the children?

This line of thinking (which is clearly being pushed by Lebowitz and Cappucci) is staggering in both its complexity and insight. Frioni's wife donated $450! But why? Are the free masons involved? They must be, right? The stonecutters? Of course! Once that connection is made, the plan is clear: appoint an ally to the board so that Riemer or Strotmeyer (or one of the other collusionists) can send business to their enterprise or arrange for a family member to be hired by the district. It is a plan so fiendishly clever in its intricacies that one must assume that Kissinger or Karl Rove were involved. But how did they get someone so well known and, presumably, expensive? It's clear that the ultimate goal is to sell the schools to the intelligencia and establish reeducation camps right in our back yards! Help us Lebo Larry, you are our only hope.

Very interesting, but the election is over so what does one do with the knowledge that CCRB violated campaign finance rules?

They have not filed their final report and can be fined for every day that it is late. This is the same group that went after Jim Cannon over some postage stamps.

Al Frioni brought his whole family to the interview. Overconfident? Or was it just predetermined?

Beth, you're giving yourself away. Also, saying "shit" at the podium is totally uncalled for. Beth, it is a school board meeting.

It should be noted that the reason why the 8:54 PM comment was a dead giveaway, is because the meeting was still in progress. I got reports from attendees that Beth Evans made the 8:54 PM comment.

Beth, you wouldn't return a greeting when I said hello to you at the polls, but you have no problem taking jabs here. Just like a bully.

Sorry Elaine. Not Beth. Don’t assume you know EVERYTHING. Your minions steered you wrong this time.

Lebo Citizens said...

It never is. I would be shocked if you had agreed, 8:04 AM. Concerned parents and taxpayers who take the time to go to school board meetings, are my minions? I'll be curious to see if the meeting is edited to clean up Beth Evans' potty mouth. David Huston did record the meeting, so we'll see.

Someone was sitting with Beth Evans who I didn't recognize. Maybe her ?
