Shaffer Leading the Pack in City Council Campaign Fundraising

New documents reveal that so far, newcomer candidate Lisa Shaffer has raised the most money in the race for Encinitas City Council.

There were few surprises as the Encinitas City Council candidates turned in the first of three campaign finance documents on Oct. 5. Additional form 460s, which include information about contributions to a candidate, expenditures and loans, are due at the end of October and on January 31.

The current required state forms cover all financial dealings of each candidates’ campaign from July 1 through September 30.

Out of the field of nine candidates running for three spots on the dias, six have been actively fundraising. Bryan Ziegler, Peter Schuh and Thomas Brophy did not turn in campaign finance forms to the city clerk’s office by the Oct. 5 deadline. 

Lisa Shaffer took in the largest amount of contributions at $35,125 to date. Non-monetary contributions total $1,507 to date. Her total expenditures are listed at $25,809.

Current Mayor Jerome Stocks, who has served twelve years on the council, with three years as mayor, reported monetary contributions totaling $5,715, with an additional loan from Stocks to the campaign for $2,500. His expenditures were reported at $4,364.

Tony Kranz reported monetary contributions at $15,091 to date. In addition, Kranz’ filing showed non-monetary contributions at $1,267 to date. His total expenditures are listed as $10733.79.

Kevin Forrester took in $4,961 in monetary contributions and a $4,300 loan that the candidate made in three increments to the campaign. His expenditures came in at $5,313.64.

Appointed City Councilman Mark Muir showed monetary contributions of $22,162.16 to date in his bid to secure a four-year term on the council. Muir also reported a personal $4,000 loan to the campaign. Non-monetary contributions came in at $679.16 to date. His expenditures are listed as $12,880.57.

Barbara Yost reported monetary contributions of $859.00, with an additional $2,049 in the form of a loan from a third party individual. Her expenditures equaled her contributions at $2,908.

Ciao Pam! Grazie per il tuo bel commento! / Thanks for your nice comment! Hope your trip to ItaliaRead More was fabulous. Buona giornata :)

Took this class before a trip to Italy. Very fun and was able to learn quickly with the way theRead More class was taught. Great instructor and wonderful insights. You will enjoy it if you ever wanted to learn Italian. Caio!

This is wonderful news. Congratulations to the students, their instructors and Academy staffRead More members -- and to the supportive parents. A theatre education is the best!

Hi Edward, I didn't hear any reports on the scanner or from sources of crashes, rescues or hardRead More landings.

The public deserves an objective, unemotional, factual public debate on this proposition. So far IRead More am still leaning toward a yes vote, but I am keeping an open mind at least through this month.

That may very well have been part of it. Grandma had an affinity for liquor as well, but grandpaRead More hated alcohol with a passion and wouldn't allow a single drop of it in the house. Sometimes the man's leadership is essential.

Aunt Judy was probably a very lonely person and turned to comfort in a bottle. What a darn shame.

And you know what ladies, if you don't like Batman's way you don't have to do it Batman's way. ThisRead More is America, not Batmerica, and it's not Flanderstan either. My grandmother's sister decided to become a career woman instead of geting married and having a family. She started and ran a very successful accounting business, back in the 1930s! So who needs Flanders and his women's lib? There's nothing standing in your way, there never has been. Flanders and the rest are lying to you. Aunt Judy did become an alcoholic though and died rather young because of it. Would that have been different if she had been a family woman? Nobody knows.
