Fun with Finance Reports

If you check the campaign finance reports, which I do regularly, you'll notice a whole lot wrong with finance reports this go-around.

I'm gonna do a post later focusing on all the finance report screw ups, misfilings, and interesting little tidbits later, but I really want to zero in on one particular problem with one particular judicial candidate. 

See, when you're a candidate running for a position in which you are supposed to interpret the law, and you can follow directions or break rules/regulations/laws, you send a really loud message that you don't belong on the bench. 

Sorry, there's no gentle way of saying that, but if you can't get reporting right, how in the hell are you going to be trusted with interpretations of the complexities of the law?

Trust me, that sentence applies to several judicial candidates, but for now the one I'm talking about is Judge Mike Herrera. You know, the guy that has been on the bench forever, who runs every 4 years and outta know better by now?

They one who is apparently running so he can double-dip on the tax-payer dime. 

Yeah, that guy. 

Its not that he got something wrong on his filing. Its not even that he filed it late. 

He just didn't file. 

At all. 

Nothing. 


But as usual, nothing will happen unless someone steps up and files an ethics complaint. Period.

Seriously, why is it always this guy?
