CBS SF> The Mayor of Cloverdale hopes it’s just a misunderstanding, but the Bernie Sanders campaign appears to have left her small town with $23,000 in unpaid bills after it hosted their ‘A Future To Believe In’ rally last June.
According to The Press Democrat, the Sanders campaign paid Cloverdale a $2500 deposit toward expenses. Despite assurances they’d pay the balance, their response to the city’s attempts to collect on an invoice is starting to sound like ‘the runaround.’
Cloverdale officials were given given only 48 hours notice before the June 3 rally, and say they had no time to put together a formal contract. Still, the city was happy, even honored to oblige. Ultimately, the event was a huge success, drawing more than 6,000 supporters.
h/t Unashamed Domestic Dame.
No biggie; there are still bills left unpaid by the 1996 (Bill) Clinton campaign.
I like that Bernie button. All his mental patients should be wearing those.
They didn’t read the fine print. It was really “A Failure To Believe In”.
“Ultimately, the event was a huge success, drawing more than 6,000 supporters.”
I’m sure the rally of People For Free Shit boosted the local economy immeasurably.
Bernie the freeloader. Whatdidtheyexpect?
Just deduct it from the “free tuition” unicorn fund.
Has anyone in Cloverdale learned anything??
Probably not, the next liberal asshole to engage Cloverdale will likely get a free pass also.
Bernie is like NatLamps Cousin Eddie. He’s just a mooch.
The guy has $165,000 in credit-card debt. Not someone I’d trust with money.
No formal contract? Any written contract at all? Just a spoken “agreement” and a handshake?
Suck it up, Cloverdale. You’re screwed, blued, and tattooed. You ain’t getting any more money from the Bernie Sanders (BS) people.
Whoever it was in authority who said Yes to this mess, should pay the balance out of their personal pocket.
This is how you learn to get a bond posted BEFORE the event.
Small town, Big time progs running it. Eat it idiots.
Typical! Just like Al and Jesse.
Hotels learned long ago to charge Jesse Jackson upfront.
Hey, townfolk he was just spreading your wealth around!
I gotta believe this is the ‘future’ you were seeking. Thanks a load, Bern
