The CCAP has raised another $10,500 to try and control Coos County elections including $5,000 from Al Pierce Co and another $5,000 from the International City/County Management Association based in Washington, DC. The Messerle campaign appears to be delinquent reporting some of its contributions but it did show another $1,000 from CCAP this morning which added to the $2,269 in Messerle ads brings the total contributions to $10,769. The PAC makes up 35% of Messerle’s total $30,949 reported to date. The PAC has raised $42,675 and invested 24% of it in one candidate.
How many of us ran away from places where special interests buy candidates. Former California Pettit and Boston Barton have not been shy about buying Messerle. Why concerns me is how this county commissioner can repay them.
Are you kidding me? Hell, they PAID Cam Parry NOT to endorse them. Wankers one and all. From KCBY

I sure hope Coos County voters realize that the various PACs are not investing in ideologies but in what offers the best return on their investment.
Have any of the Messerlies put any of their own skin into this game, or is that forbidden in Let’s Find A Public Teat And Suck It Dry Land???
