Pauly Reportedly Cleared by DA
Orange County blogger, education and political activist Mark Bucher posted this report on the OC Blog on July 26th about a July 13th decision by the Orange County District Attorney's Office to clear the electioneering complaints against Villa Park Council Member Deborah Pauly that are the foundation of the current recall campaign against her:
DA clears Deborah Pauley
After Deborah Pauley won election to the Villa Park City Council last November, her opponents leveled a politically motivated charge of campaigning within 100' of a polling location. They filed a complaint against her with the D.A. and then repeatedly used that she was "currently under investigation by the District Attorney for her illegal Election Day actions" as a reason she should be recalled.
On July 13, the DA closed its investigation, finding that "there is no reliable evidence [Pauley] was soliciting votes within 100' of any polling place." The DA's findings simply confirm what most people already know - the recall is nothing more than a misguided effort by a few malcontents to get a "do-over" of an election that did not turn out the way they wanted.
