Victor Crist's Racket Exposed

This guy received tens of thousands of dollars from developers who profit from sprawl, and then he votes for sprawl.

-----

The developers for ONE of the huge sprawl projects he approved donated $8,000 to his re-election bid. Of the $78,000 Crist has raised for this election, $22,000 are from clients of ONE big developer-lobbyist. And besides that ONE lobbyist, Crist’s whole campaign donor list is a Who’s Who of developers and special interests.

-----

He didn't know. He blamed it on 

two little old ladies. here

----- 

Check out our friend  Mariella Smith,, she has been fighting sprawl for decades. and she doesn't take brides. We can vouch for that, check out her history on this blog.

-----

She is not getting the big bucks from developers that Victor Crist gets. She is running a grassroots campaign.
 She needs our help.

-----

"Unlike Victor Crist, let me assure you I DO look at who writes checks, and each and every one of your contributions is important to our campaign." 
Mariella Smith
