Time for the City to take action and do its part in cleaning up Voter Fraud

The Supervisors should ask Bill Lee the City Administrator to run the payroll addresses for city workers against the voter registration addresses for city workers, looking for the exception for those that are registered and that live outside of the city of San Francisco. We suspect the numbers are in the hundreds if not the thousands. This is a very easy data base program to run, it would help restore voter integrity to San Francisco

IN JANUARY ALONE , three senior city employees with ties to former mayor Willie Brown have been charged with what in most cities would be called political corruption. A city attorney's report claims that a former secretary to Brown's deputy chief of staff, Steve Kawa, fixed parking tickets for herself and friends. A senior cop admitted that he voted in San Francisco although he didn't live in town. And a Department of Public Works official with close ties to Brown allegedly pressured members of a city street-cleaning crew to vote for Mayor Gavin Newsom and campaign for him on city time.

Together the allegations present a picture of rampant corruption at city hall and suggest that the Brown administration allowed, or perhaps encouraged, all sorts of illegal activity to take place. The three cases present the first major challenge to Mayor Newsom and the new district attorney, Kamala Harris: if they don't move quickly and firmly to investigate and resolve the charges, they'll be sending a clear signal that the ocean of sleaze that flowed through Brown's city hall is still at high tide.
