SRNC ELECTION CHALLENGE REVIEW PANEL UPDATE

by General Jeff (5/4/2017)

NEWS ALERT:.Last night an 3-member Election Challenge Review Panel convened
by the City of Los Angeles' Department of Neighborhood Empowerment (DONE)
upheld (approved) all THREE election challenges submitted by the Skid Row
Neighborhood Council- Formation Committee.
The election challenges were each based on evidence (written documentation and
video) which proved the Downtown Los Angeles Neighborhood Council (DLANC)
was involved in a cheating scandal through two front organizations (Unite DTLA
and DTLA United) which both publicly opposed the creation of the Skid Row
Neighborhood Council.
The specific election challenges were- Illegal use of City Logo (In this case a
Neighborhood Council logo), illegally taking a position in an election (supporting a
candidate) and Electioneering.
The Review Panel recommended that DONE, the City Attorney and an
Independent investigation agency (to be determined) officially investigate the
illegal actions (which were mostly online) and conclude within 60
days.Afterwhich, if no definite resolve could be reached, a new election tis o be
held WITHOUT online voting, no later than 30 days after the conclusion of the
investigation (90 days from now).
THOUGHT:.What's most interesting about the recommendation is DONE has
clearly stated both publicly and online that NO new election will happen as the
result of an Election Challenge Review Panel.So what is the option to a new
election?With THREE violations upheld, the penalty phase goes well beyond a
simple Letter of Reprimand to the DLANC.Thus, the next available options are
Disqualification of Candidate (DLANC) or Disqualification of Votes (In this case NO
votes).
DONE has not yet released it's official determination regarding this matter.
Stay tuned!
