Ethics in Government

Don't throw me "no" rubber bone!

READ WHAT BOYNTON BEACH IS DOING ABOUT IT

Our Lake Worth Commissioner, Retha Lowe, broke Elections Law and NO ONE wants to speak about it. Ms. Lowe wants to pretend that it was just all a mistake. She said that to the press as well as at a Commission Meeting.

Ms. Lowe committed five counts of violating Chapter 106, Florida Statutes.

Commissioner Lowe has been a Lake Worth City Commissioner for years. In this last election she acted as her campaign treasurer but she wants us to buy her story, telling us that she did not try to cover-up the real source of these contributions.

The State of Florida says that she demonstrated a reckless disregard for the requirement to accurately report campaign contributions and it was “deliberate.” The State says that not only was it deliberate but she knowingly prepared and filed false reports. She didn’t fool all of us.

For the New Year, Retha Lowe really should go.
