When I read the arguments against Measure A, I was particularly surprised by one claim: “These outside groups hope voters don’t read all 31 pages of Measure A. But WE did.”
Ridiculous. All I’ve heard from anyone supporting Measure A is how important it is to read it. But I’ve never seen an opponent offer a link to the text of Measure A on social media.
The official document for Measure A, also known as the Empower Voters to Make Land Use Decisions initiative, has been available for months, but only supporters provide the link to Measure A.
Let’s be very clear: only one side wants you to read the text of Measure A, and that is the “YES” side. The Campaign to Protect San Benito and its allies want you to read Measure A. We encourage you to do so! Go ahead and read it. We hope you do.
The opponents who wrote the arguments against Measure A lied to you. The Neighbors to Preserve San Benito lied to you. They hid the truth two years ago and now want you to believe that the Campaign to Protect San Benito will do the same. Don’t fall for it.
The Neighbors to Preserve San Benito have lied and confused voters to win by any means necessary and will continue to do so. The campaign to protect San Benito is about protecting our community. The people with the hawk as their logo are our friends, our defenders.
You know, the president of Neighbors to Preserve San Benito is the paid spokesman for Strada Verde, which is owned and operated by corporate developers. That’s true. I have documented evidence for all of my claims.
But I will never understand why someone
join this proxy group.
