It wasn't much of a campaign, but at least all the candidates saved a lot of money

Correct me if I'm reading this wrong... but am I reading correctly that none of the 5 candidates running for Town Council raised or spent a single dime for their campaigns within the past month?

All the "8-day" campaign finance reports are in for our five candidates (these reports were due 8 days before the May 12th date), and all our candidates report ZEROs for money raised and money spent. I guess Trotter, Lindsey and Tasker had already paid for their signs in a previous election. Stufflebam spent a few hundred dollars in the previous reports, but nothing in April. Pacifico hasn't spent a dime, at least as acknowledged in her two campaign-finance filings.

I don't like mean-spirited nasty campaigns like we've had in the past, but I would like to see a real campaign to get the issues out there for people to consider. And that takes at least a little money raised and spent, dontcha think?

Stufflebam and Pacifico campaigns are funded by a separate PAC formed for that purpose. On initial report, substantially all contributions were from Tour 18 residents.
