Confused supporters of Mayor and City Council candidate Doug Chaffee have noticed the giant green and blue signs with his name and the name of fellow candidate Larry Bennett, and wondered who could possibly be supporting both of them. Doug Chaffee is a supporter of saving Coyote Hills, Larry Bennett supported Measure W, Chevron’s plan to build there. Doug Chaffee is the darling of Fullerton’s Democrats, while Larry Bennett is the great white hope of the city’s establishment Republicans. Larry Bennett has been endorsed by Congressman-for-life Ed Royce, Supervisor Shawn Nelson, former State Senator Dick Ackerman and current State Senator Bob Huff. Doug Chaffee’s endorsements include Assemblymember Sharon Quirk-Silva, the Sierra Club, the Fullerton Observer…and former State Senator Dick Ackerman, evidently…
What (else) could possibly bring these two together on one oversized sign?…
From my August 6 report:
“Public safety unions will probably want to elect Chaffee and Alvarez or Bennett.”
I guess it didn’t really take a psychic, though. I think that they chose the wrong conservative, but I also don’t think it’s going to matter.
No, it didn’t take a psychic, nor did it take one to predict that the cops would dump Alvarez for Bennett. Now, what difference don’t you think it will make?
It’s a crazy vote crack this year. I certainly don’t understand it.
I don’t think that Bennett’s going to win either way.
