CHULA VISTA, Calif., Oct. 18, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Chula Vista City Attorney Candidate Dan Smith has issued the next Cease & Desist letter to the San Diego County Democratic Party.
To Whom It May Concern:
The objective of this letter is to demand that the San Diego County Democratic Party (hereafter SDCDP) and all of its associates together with, however not restricted to, Mayor Salas, stop misinformation, in addition to any and all promoting, promotions and endorsements for Mr. Simon Silva, a deceased candidate for the place of Chula Vista City Attorney 2022.
My fellow Chula Vista taxpayers and I are conscious, or have been made conscious, that the SDCDP is spreading misinformation in print and digital codecs advocating that voters solid their ballots for Mr. Silva with out informing them he has tragically handed away and is due to this fact not capable of perform his duties ought to he win in November. Additionally, the SDCDP is failing to tell voters {that a} win by Mr. Silva would require a two million greenback particular election funded by taxpayers.
Misinformation like that is fraud by materials omission. It is made worse by the truth that Mr. Silva’s marketing campaign pictures and/or brand photos are getting used for particular in-person occasions and promotional door hangers. These hangers had been clearly printed after Mr. Silva’s dying since his photograph has been changed by his marketing campaign brand in an obvious try and skirt misinformation allegations.
Misinformation by perpetuating this fraud on the voters of Chula Vista is doubtlessly inflicting the expenditure of thousands and thousands of {dollars}, which is a considerable quantity of taxpayer funds. If you’re profitable in electing a deceased candidate, he’s not eligible and will be unable to be sworn into workplace. Therefore, an Interim City Attorney will probably be appointed by the City Council. Quite a few candidates would then file and subsequently, a major Special Election will probably be held. Special Election expenditures might swell to 4 million {dollars} and the City Attorney place might not fill till properly into 2024.
If you don’t take away Mr. Silva’s title, likeness and any reference to him from all marketing campaign supplies and stop to endorse his candidacy with out informing voters that you’re encouraging them to vote for a deceased candidate, I and different Chula Vista taxpayers will search all authorized cures together with, however not restricted to, a civil lawsuit alleging fraud that prompted pointless taxpayer funds to be expended. We will search damages for ALL prices ensuing within the set up of an Interim City Attorney, ALL prices for holding Special Election(s) and any authorized charges and bills incurred by bringing these actions.
Sincerely,
Dan Smith
Attorney at Law
Candidate for Chula Vista City Attorney 2022
