I originally reported that mayoral candidate Mike McGinn had not spent any money on staff and consultants in the June/July C4 disclosure report, but that post included a slight error.
Upon further review, I discovered that Mike McGinn’s campaign did in fact report paying a campaign staffer. They spent $321.99 for a scheduler in the June/July C4 report. The payment description is simply listed as “June” and I did not immediately recognize that as a staff payment. Secondly, it should be made clear that the consultant payments I took into account were strictly for retainer payments. Those made for specific projects were not included in the chart. I regret the error.
That said, spending $321.99 a month on campaign staff in a mayoral campaign in one of America’s major cities may as well be considered spending nothing.

Never forget, that’s a very big party at a vegan-friendly Thai or Indian restaurant.
Is this a good thing or does it show a lack of management sense and organization? What was the $300 for, an frikkin palm pilot or something?
Yo Will, I totally feel you on that. That’d make a mighty good vegan feast. I want three types of curry and 2 orders of summer rolls. And my weight in mango sticky rice.
so, five stars or six, that’s the big question …
Does anyone know where McGinn stands on the nightlife/club ordinance issue?
McGinn is pro-nightlife AND anti-nightclub harassment.
plus I’m pretty sure he likes a good curry.
Glad to hear it, and thanks for the info #6. I couldn’t find any info on McGinn’s site or on the Web at large. Do you happen to have a link you could send my way?
