Nearly 48,000 people voted for me to be their chief accountant and protect their tax dollars. <br /><br />Please visit my new campaign website at VoteEvans.com<div class="blogger-post-footer"><a href="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=LosAngelesCityController&loc=en_US">Subscribe to Los Angeles City Controller by Email</a></div>Kathleen "Suzy" Evanshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16430589157192293695noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8518806038453862260.post-40838576767464791902009-07-01T20:58:00.000-07:002009-07-01T21:12:19.488-07:00TodayToday Antonio <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Villargosa</span> was sworn in for another 4 years in office. How much farther down hill the quality of life will go in L.A. is <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">any one's</span> guess. Will life in the city be any better in 2013? Not likely. We have fallen so far from what Los Angeles used to be; a beautiful, vibrant city. An ugliness crept into our city over the years. Now people don't speak to each other. People drive angry. I won't go on and on. Anyone who's been here for at least 15 years knows what I am talking about. Our golden city has turned into a 3rd world, overcrowded dump. No, it is not a good day in this city's history. If only more people here cared enough to vote out corruption in March we would we have some <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">real</span> hope.<br /><br />As far as our new city controller, it does not take a fortune teller to know she will be a huge disappointment. Fiscally responsible,,,she is not.<br /><br />I only hope our new city attorney comes through for us. The mayor belongs behind bars.<br /><br />And the best news today: I peeled off my old Kathleen Suzy Evans for Controller bumper sticker and replaced it with the new Kathleen Suzy Evans for California State Assembly bumper sticker!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><a href="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=LosAngelesCityController&loc=en_US">Subscribe to Los Angeles City Controller by Email</a></div>Kathleen "Suzy" Evanshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16430589157192293695noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8518806038453862260.post-86014882999291013412009-04-23T18:11:00.000-07:002009-05-16T11:41:04.531-07:00May 19 Election RecommendationsPropositions: No on 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E, and 1F.

We enjoyed the party, some of us staying until the final results came in at about 1:30 in the morning. Unfortunately, none of us got the results we wanted and what the city of L.A. needed.<br /><br />We will be keeping an eye out on Wendy Greuel as the new City Controller. I'm not cynical, but a realist. She will be more than just a disappointment as L.A. City Controller. Heck, as a city council woman for 6 years she could not come up with 3 legit examples of how she was fiscally responsible for her TV ad.<br /><br />Brace yourselves. Another 4 years of Villargosa and Wendy Greuel...the city will only continue to dissinagrate.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><a href="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=LosAngelesCityController&loc=en_US">Subscribe to Los Angeles City Controller by Email</a></div>Kathleen "Suzy" Evanshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16430589157192293695noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8518806038453862260.post-59419507759490282812009-03-27T13:41:00.000-07:002009-03-27T13:45:18.080-07:00May 2009 PropositionsPlease join the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association in opposing Proposition 1A.<br />See their <a href="http://www.hjta.org">website</a> for details.<br />And while you are at it vote No on 1A,1B,1C,1D and 1E.

And I beat Nick!!! Even though he had 20 times more campaign funds than I did! What a feat! That was a huge surprise for the media.<br /><br />A big thank you to Walter Moore! Without him I would have missed this great experience. I met so many wonderful people. I enjoyed the forums, neighborhood council meetings all around Los Angeles.<br /><br />I received some notice from the media, my name was on the ballot and it was seen by hundreds of thousands of people in L.A. And now that I have name recognition, I will run again, either for city council or a state office.<br /><br />I will leave this blog open. Feel free to comment. Stay tuned. I will most likely open a new blog for my next race and link it up to this one.<br /><br />Together we can save this city and state. It can and will be beautiful and safe again.<br /><br />Kathleen Suzy Evans<div class="blogger-post-footer"><a href="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=LosAngelesCityController&loc=en_US">Subscribe to Los Angeles City Controller by Email</a></div>Kathleen "Suzy" Evanshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16430589157192293695noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8518806038453862260.post-51213366441498117572009-03-03T00:04:00.000-08:002009-03-03T00:10:24.138-08:00It's March 3rd!
