Gov. — At City Taxpayer Expense"},"content":{"rendered":"

If you want to know all about Janice Hahn’s candidacy for Lieutenant Governor of California, there’s an easy way to find out where she stands on the issues, volunteer to help and even donate money — just go to her official LA City Council website.<\/p>\n

If that’s not an illegal use of city money and facilities, I don’t know what is.<\/p>\n

Hahn has the nerve — or perhaps is so used to abuses at City Hall — that she has a box near the top right of her Council website<\/a> inviting readers to “SIGN UP NOW for our newsletter” and when you click on it you’re asked for your name and email to mark the issues you care about from Airport, to Neighborhood Councils, 12 in all.<\/p>\n

It’s really quite a good site, showing of the San Pedro Councilwoman with her great political pedigree to great effect. It’s got all the social media tools and boxes to help you “spread the word,” “volunteer” and “donate.”<\/p>\n

You got to wonder how she gets away with this. Are there no standards, no laws, no appreciation about the difference between public service and self service?<\/p>\n

This isn’t just a link, which would be bad enough.<\/p>\n

It’s a phony invitation to find out about city issues from the Councilwoman. It’s nothing but a dirty trick to lure you to her campaign site. It ought to be stopped and the abuse punished.<\/p>\n
