They are all missing the "paid for" or "authorized by" notice required by Virginia law.
"Radio, TV and print media communications must include disclaimers displayed conspicuously. Print media includes billboards, newspaper and magazine ads, mailings, fliers, email and websites. Printed pieces consisting of more than one page need bear the disclaimer only on one page or face. VA. CODE ANN. § 24.2-955.1 (defining “print media”).
Print media: “Paid for by [name of entity].” If the advertisement supports or opposes the nomination or election of a clearly identified candidate, it must also state either, “Authorized by [name of candidate], candidate for [name of office] or “Not authorized by a candidate.” VA. CODE ANN. § 24.2-956.1. If the advertisement opposes a clearly identified candidate, the sponsor must also disclose the name of the candidate it is supporting. VA. CODE ANN. § 24.2-956.1(3). "
Is it true that Tag wasn't on the school board ballot because he (fraudulently?) signed the petiton sheets (someone else gathered signatures but he signed them in front of notary)? If not, does anyone know why? He used the wrong sized paper is another story I heard....????
ReplyDeleteI don't know. I know he wasn't on the ballot in 2007 due to some error on his part, but I don't know what the error was.
ReplyDeleteI've heard he has had a similar problem this year with some paperwork mix-up, but haven't seen (or looked, for that matter) for confirmation.
What that all says to me is that he's not terribly detail-oriented. But kudos to his team for rectifying one error at least!
Liz,
ReplyDeleteNot sure if my last comment was received. Thanks for the heads up. My site is now "up to code" and hopefully the voters will see how quickly I can get things done! BTW, I wrote this message myself and therefore I approve it's content. Keep up the good blogs.
