SOME BISD CANDIDATES' CONTRIBUTIONS AND EXPENDITURES NOT REPORTED

 Special to El Rrun-Rrun

Five of the 11 candidates for a position on the board of the Brownsville Independent School District whose campaign signs are splashed across the city's landscape, have stated in their financial expenditures reports that they have no cash. 

Starting with Place 3, candidate Victor Caballero, who started campaigning early this year, reports he has no money and no expenditures. In contrast, his opponent, incumbent Jessica Gonzalez, did file on July 15, 2024, but has not filed her October report. So where did the Caballero signs come from?


Place 5 candidates Daniella Lopez-Valdez, the incumbent, and Caty Presas-Garcia complied with the campaign and expenditures requirement, but Nelda Rocha claims she has no contributions or expenditures.
Place 6 incumbent Marisa Francisca Leal reported as required, but her opponent Minerva Peña, who should know better after all those years on the board, has not filed a report in October and although her signs are splashed across the city. Her July 15 report shows that she reported zero contributions an expenditures.
And in Place 7, Erasmo Castro and Farley Treviño did not file their October reports, although Castro did file a July report that he had received no contributions. Tim Ramirez and Augustine Anduiza filed their reports as required.

Reasons for some of these candidates not filing are not listed but sometimes some of these people think they are above the law or the rules don’t apply to them. Im not stating that’s whats happening but we have seen this before. If the reasons are because they think the rules don’t apply then ( to me) it raises a lot of red flags about the candidate. If they don’t believe in the rules, then what type of behavior are we to expect from them if elected??? Not a good move if you ask me, but nowadays politics/elections are a crapshoot

How can Caballero, Nelda and Farley have so many signs all over the city yet they have no contributions or expenses. They want transparency but they do not want to be transparent. Get out here!!!

Juan the reason no contributions is that perhaps these were done with cash so no need to report them? just saying, chon por la calle Clavel.

Vote for the good candidates. The candidates that are fair, honest, and with a heart of gold. NO more lousy candidates. We all know who they are: child abusers, killer not helper, and wife beater.

Your family must be real hungry that there are no limits to your lies for those who pay you. Common Juanito, you know damn well if the candidate uses their own money, and do not intend to reimburse themselves, they do not have to report it. Texas Ethics Commission: "Spending your own money on your campaign? Avoid common reporting errors!

If you intend to seek reimbursement of any amount from political contributions for a political expenditure made from your personal funds, you must report the expenditure in one of three ways. Keep in mind that this reporting system is not an accounting system and duplication of expenditures is not uncommon when reporting transactions related to expenditures made from personal funds."

Anybody that has worked with Farley Trevino knows that he doesn't have a conscious y que es pura transa. He shits on his wife and children. Granted his vieja pasmada likes to be shitted upon by him.What do you the voter think he is going to do to BISD? Do you want him to shit on BISD too?

Coaches: some people like them and some people do not like them. Coaches are smart and know what to say and to whom to say it. You think the wife is pasmada but she is not. The wives are clever and more intelligent than the husbands.
