Not only are the special interest groups controlling most members of Congress they have now invaded Rocklin. THAT IS WHY I AM ASKING YOU TO VOTE NO ON MEASURE H.
I am sure you received 2 or 3 propaganda flyers in the mail today from the Rocklin Alliance for Open Space. We need to ask ourselves, who makes up the Rocklin Alliance for Open Space? It is the Thunder Valley Casino and Massie and Company, two very large and influential organizations that do not care about the quality of life in Rocklin.
You may have actually read their fliers in the mail. Take a look who has signed their name as supporters of Measure H. The Rocklin City Council, who only wants to keep their tight grip on power. If Measure H is passed, they will raise your taxes. They are trying to do this with Measure J, the park tax. They wanted to raise your sales tax. I am amazed that these people would stoop so low just to stay in power. When you are a politician and you are in power for so long, it is difficult to accept you may be voted out of office. The Rocklin City Council has mortgaged our quality of life just to stay in power. Massie and Company and the Thunder Valley Casino will fill the City Council’s re-election accounts with whatever it takes to win.
The Rocklin School Board and Superintendent Kevin Brown. They are part of the good ole boys network. They want to make sure that the political landscape does not change in Rocklin. The school board wants to silence thousands of family’s voices when it comes to school choice. The California Teacher’s Association (CTA) is the special interest group that pulls the strings for the school board. Remember the teacher that choked a student last year? The CTA told the school board what to do regarding this teacher. A teacher should never put their hand on a student. In Rocklin, they look the other way.
Bill Halldin, the past President of the Sierra College Foundation, has his own public relations company. I wonder if his company is on the payroll for the Yes on Measure H? Word on the street is Mr. Halldin wants to run for a seat on the Sierra College Board. I wonder what type of deal he cut with the Thunder Valley Casino to fund his potential campaign?
They’re a few realtors that signed their name to the list. I assume they have done this because they think they can sell houses in Clover Valley.
Richard Robinson, John Doolittle’s former Chief of Staff is serving as one of the highly paid leaders of the Measure H campaign. I wonder if Jack Abromoff, is advising him from his jail cell?
I have already received 3 robo calls. Enough is enough. Can you really believe Mayor Storey about Measure H? Remember when he was written up in the Placer Herald 3 years ago for taking down other people’s campaign signs? Rocklin School Board President Steve Paul was also written up in the Placer Herald for taking down opponent’s campaign signs. These people are supposed to be our city leaders? They want us to trust them on Measure H. I don’t think so.
THE ALLIANCE FOR OPEN SPACE WILL PROBABLY SPEND 1 MILLION DOLLARS ON THIS CAMPAIGN.
The group that opposes the development of Clover Valley has spent $71,000. Why does the Yes on Measure H group feel they need to spend 1 million dollars? They know that Rocklin voters are smart. They have no choice but to deceive and mislead the good people of Rocklin. Take a look around our city. Have you seen all the No on Measure H signs in people’s front yard? These are Republicans, Democrats and Independents. I have seen very few Yes on H signs. The Yes on H signs seem to be on the property of business owners. I wonder if the City Council used strong armed tactics to convince these business owners to put a Yes on H sign on their property.
If you take a look at the people and other politicians that have put their name on the Yes on H fliers, most have some type of business with the city.
Everyone has heard the saying, “every vote counts.” This contest will be very close. Do not let the special interest group take control of Rocklin.
PLEASE VOTE NO ON MEASURE H THIS TUESDAY.
