Chavez's Financial Problems

Former State Rep Norma Chavez's campaign is in bigger trouble than I thought. When Chavez actually did file a report, for the first time in the entire campaign, it was clear what she was hiding.

Her campaign is a financial ruin. She got one campaign donation listed.

One.

I'm not joking.

And in this bizarro world we live in now, people turn something into the opposite of what it really is thanks to Donald Trump, so Chavez is now acting like her finance report is somehow a good thing.

Here's the truth - Chavez is doing exactly what I said yesterday that a lot of people where concerned about...she's going to tarnish Dolores Huerta.

Chavez already has a loan listed from family - her family members on a fixed income at that - that far exceeds the limits set out in the law.

She came up with some BS excuse that its a joint account that she shares with family. But if that is true, that report is even more fraudulent that it appears to have been on face value based on her comments.

There are several violations on her report and guess who she put on the hook for her mistakes? Thats right, Dolores Huerta. An iconic civil rights leader is on the hook for Norma's pendejadas.

Norma should be as ashamed of herself as we as a community are as ashamed of Norma.

The fact that her campaign is in such poor shape shows that she is even more unpopular than I thought. She struggles to raise anywhere near the number she used to raise for her state rep races. And there has been almost no grassroots effort on the part of Chavez, most certainly not in the area of town that used to be her "base". I've knocked on thousands of doors this cycle and I haven't seen on single person that has heard from Chavez.

Not one.

And Chavez's quote in the El Paso Times about her name ID is indicative of her strategy, she's gonna rely on name ID.

And that is bad for Chavez. Lots of people have name ID. Hell Bin Ladin had name ID, that doesn't mean people like him.
