Some interesting news the last couple of days dealing with some wannabe’s in Orange. The 1st is the wife of Orange City Council Candidate Frank “The Heat” Finn.
Apparently, she has decided that OC Sheriff Mike Carona doesn’t deserve to be in elective office any longer…
The following is a quick blip from the OC Registers’ Martin Wisckol:
Now Karen Finn, a Carona critic and wife of a policeman, has launched a Web site with a petition calling for a recall election. She faces a long haul, though – valid signatures of 150,000 voters registered in the county are needed.
Finn's site is www.ipetitions.com/petition/RETRIBUTIONS/
Also there is another portion of a story from the OC Register dealing with the County Supervisors Race, apparently everybody is upset about a former State Assemblyman (Tom Umberg) and that he doesn’t live in the area covered by his elective office. Why I find it interesting that they are watching this so closely, it also listed numerous other folks in the recent year that also had an issue with residency.

Here is the part of the story that focused on Carol “Beach Bunny” Rudat.
There was more of an uproar when Newport Beach's Carol Rudat bought a house in Orange and ran for City Council there. A lawsuit challenged whether the Orange home – much smaller than her Newport Beach abode – was her primary residence.
There seemed to be a stronger case against Rudat than Umberg. A Rudat spokesperson had earlier given a move-in date that turned out to be after she had re-registered to vote.
That could have disqualified her, but there was enough ambiguity that the judge in the case declined to intervene.
While I feel that the this last election in the City of Orange was just plain silly with Rudat’s spending a personal fortune only to be slapped around badly by the voters, then you have Denis “The Insider” Bilodeau, getting caught and arrested with his hand in the cookie jar. You had the outsider candidate like Jeremy “The Kid” Wayland so far over his head he was spinning around like a top.
Where are the days when we got somebody we could actually vote for and not against somebody else!!!!
