BIG WINCO LAWFARE UPDATE COMING SOON...

This Friday, October 11, 2024, is the hearing for the Motion to Dismiss that I filed. While motions to dismiss are rarely granted, I believe I have a strong case and have prepared thoroughly. I ask for your prayers, as this feels like a David versus Goliath moment.

What’s becoming clear as the case unfolds is that this isn't just about me—it appears WinCo may be pushing back against the citizens of Washington, potentially trying to hinder petitions and the right to gather signatures, not just at their stores but across the state. While I can’t share all the details right now, I will when the time is right. In the meantime, please pray for God’s favor that the judge grants my Motion to Dismiss.

VOTE NO on Kimsey's Charter Amendments #17 & #18

Ballots will be sent out soon...

#17 Redistricting: Every ten years, after the census, districts for Clark County Council are redrawn. As you probably know, redrawing districts can be abused to change political outcomes and is something that both parties can exploit. This amendment would shift the current bipartisan process for redrawing Clark County Council districts, allowing the Council's majority party to select the Redistricting Committee. It grants significant power to an unelected bureaucrat, the so-called "redistricting master," a county GIS employee no less, to create new districts. The proposed amendment from Kimsey would change the current system, any changes would require a supermajority vote, making it difficult for the actual committee to alter the proposed districts. If passed, this would further centralize most of the power in one person, reducing the committee's role in the process. Although labeled as "non-partisan," the amendment will most certainly increase gerrymandering by the Council’s majority party. The current process ensures bipartisan representation, but the proposed changes would give more control to County employees and the majority party, likely leading to political manipulation disguised as nonpartisan reform.

#18 Initiatives: This amendment significantly alters the "Initiatives Limitations" section of the Charter. Despite repeated refusals by the Prosecuting Attorney's office to acknowledge it, the amendment would expand their powers of review to deny proposed initiatives. The current Charter limits initiatives to six subjects, but the new language, "However, this is not a complete list," would allow the PA's office to block proposed initiatives. The explanation statements and ballot titles omit this critical detail.

Even worse, if passed, the amendment would enable a handful of County officials to create potentially biased legal opinions and financial projections required on petitions and ballots.

THIS IS A BACKDOOR APPROACH TO ABRIDGE OUR RIGHTS TO PETITION CHANGE IN OUR GOVERNMENT.

If approved, this will undoubtedly result in only county-approved initiatives having a chance of success—effectively silencing grassroots efforts and restricting the people's right to petition and self-govern.

ICYMI: WinCo Lawfare Update: FACT OR FICTION, Sheriff Deputies Report Refutes Accusations - CLICK HERE TO WATCH & SHARE SHORT VIDEO

WinCo has falsely accused me in court documents of having a signature gatherer, allegedly working on my behalf (not only is this false but it's a fabricated accusation), who blocked and harassed customers at the Brush Prairie WinCo Foods store. However, an incident report I obtained through a public records request tells a different story, as detailed by the deputies involved.

"I also spoke with the gentlemen out front, he was not harassing people nor was he in the way of travel by any means. He was understanding aswell"

Why does this matter? First, it proves that WinCo’s statements are inaccurate. Even more troubling, this false claim was picked up by local media and widely spread during the most critical phase of the signature gathering campaign. This wasn't just an exaggerated accusation; it was amplified to undermine and discredit the Restore Election Confidence initiative, harming its efforts across the community.

STAY TUNED... Next up, Motion To Dismiss hearing next week 10/11/24
