(October 10, 2018. 1:45 a.m.) -- In a recipient committee report covering the period to Sept. 23-30, the "Mayor Robert Garcia Committee & City Auditor Laura Doud Committee to Support Good Government Measures AAA, BBB, CCC, DDD" (which Garcia renamed from his pro-Measure M committee which he renamed from his pro-Measure A committee) reported $59,330 cash on hand with outstanding debts of $20,306.

The lion's share of its debt -- $15,750 -- is owed to Fairbank, Maslin, Maulin, Metz & Associates and was incurred between May 15-19, 2018 during the Garcia-run campaign for Measure M (June 2018 utility revenue transfer/diversion) for services the committee's campaign filing described as "polling and survey research." In its campaign to persuade voters to support the Measure A (June 2016) sales tax increase, the Garcia-run committee used the same firm for the same listed services.
