Three Strikes at "Nip in the Bud". What An Experience

In the last posting I related having received on Saturday last the official decision from the Scretary of State's Elections Division's office concerning the allegations and charges made against me by the city manager back the first week or so of September or so that was sent informing me that the Elections Speicalist had not found sufficient evidence to find against me under either ORS 260.432, ORS 260.665, or ORS 260.665. The last one being the heavy hitter, a finding against me would have been a Class C Felony.

On Monday I called the Secretary of State's Election Division office and asked that the file be sent to me. And so it was. so for the first time I was seeing what the charges against me were, how the complaining letter had been worded, and also I was for the first time able to see the evidence submitted against me.

I was shocked. I was shocked because the city manager in her attempt, she said, to "nip in the bud" these acts she was alledging against me along, it seems, with another city hall employee, had gone to my blog and downloaded a number of pages and had sent them to the Elections Division Specialist, it appears, claiming I had emailed those to them, it is not clear to me who.

If you are reading this now, you know better. You know because you do not receive this blog by email. What you receive by email is usually a brief "teaser" letting you know this fool, me, has posted on the blog again, which is done now and again with no schedule or regularity, no appearant intent or purpose, and a link to the blog itself is part of that email.

To get to the blog, you had to either want to be here, or you made a mistake and clicked on the blog link. You probably simply clicked on the delete or junk email button or icon and so you are not reading this at all.

It is not true that I emailed those pages of this blog to anyone at city hall, nor to anyone.

I am consulting with attorneys to see if violations of law were made in that claim that I emailed those pages the city manager submitted from this blog as having been sent as an email at city hall to those who are claiming I did, and also seeking information that could develop into finding out if influence may have been used to cause the city employee to join into a conspiracy in making the claim to the Elections Division that the materials that were downloaded from this blog had been sent as they were claiming, to them at their work email addresses.

I am also trying to figure out if this was done with malice. If I feel it was, and I do believe I smell malice in the air, I will certainly be referring my own allegations and making charges. My charges will be to the Attorney General of Oregon.

Not one of the three charges were found to be true against me. And only in the instance wherein the city manager made false claim that I had emailed the blog pages she provided to the Elections Division was comment made. So the only thing I was even scolded for is an untruth. I cannot blame the Elections Division Specialist, she was told and led to believe those blog pages had been emailed.

We'll just see. We'll just see now who is going to be nipping at which bud in who's rose garden as winter sets in here.

Note To those who already have called or sent emails supporting me: Thanks ever so much. You guys amaze me in your Loyality and Fidelity. You guys are the definition of both Loyality and Fidelity.
