COUNCIL CARDENAS CANNABIS CARTEL ELECTION CORRUPTION FOR YEARS "One client has been Blue Water Governmental Affair, a local firm specializing in representing cannabis dispensaries. Blue Water is owned by Dallin Young, the former head of the Association of Cannabis Professionals that worked with Grassroots Resources on cannabis ballot initiatives in local cities. Cardenas does not disclose the nature of the work or any of Blue Water's clients that Grassroots Resources may have represented. Another Grassroots client is Margin Victories, a political consulting firm owned by Jehoan Espinoza, a local political consultant who has worked on various campaigns with Grassroots Resources, including last year's campaigns of Chula Vista Council members Jose Preciado and Carolina Chavez, who, together with Cardenas, now make up a majority of the Council.Margin Victories received payments of over $1.1 million last year from the San Diego County Democratic Party for member communications campaigns in support of Preciado, Chavez, and Ammar Campa-Najjar, the losing candidate for Mayor in last year's election.During the 2022 elections, Margin Victories paid $205,000 to Grassroots Resources for work on the Chula Vista campaigns for Preciado, Chavez, and Campa- Najjar, as well as Chula Vista Elementary School District candidates. Margin Victories' Espinoza lived at the same address as Councilwoman Cardenas while he was running the campaigns for City Council candidates and while Margin Victories paid her company.
Cardenas has not disclosed any of Margin Victories' clients. Grassroots Resources also represented March & Ash, the largest cannabis company in San Diego. March & Ash owns two branded dispensaries in Chula Vista, and operates a third location run

"'We make it very clear that we don't tolerate encampments along our sidewalks, and we don't tolerate other code violations such as being drunk in public or urinating in public or defecating in public,' Mayor Bailey said. 'We just simply don't tolerate these basic code violations. What ends up happening is an individual either chooses to get help or they end up leaving.' The city leader went on to add that contributing to the ongoing homeless crisis - especially in California - are progressive leaders' failure to hold willingly homeless citizens accountable for their life choices.'The fact of the matter is there, although there are a myriad of reasons that people end up homeless, they eventually only fall into two camps — those that want help and those that do not want help,' Bailey said. 'And if those that are refusing to get help… shouldn't be granted additional the ability to break laws such as tent encampments on the sidewalk or urinating or defecating in public.' "

Chula Vista City Council To Address Homeless Issue At Harborside Park People in Chula Vista gathered to discuss solutions for a homeless encampment at a park, right next to an elementary school. Families and homeless advocates both agree that closing down Harborside Park is not the solution. Parents say this will not keep homeless people away from being near the elementary school. https://www.cbs8.com/article/news/local/chula-vista-city-council-to-address-homeless- issue-at-harborside-park/509-dd641334-16df-467c-9165-847f6b45ed71

"Dive deep into the heart of El Cajon's streets. Witness firsthand how our Special Enforcement Unit tirelessly offers support to the homeless, only to confront a harsh truth; freedom on the streets often outweighs the safety of shelters and the structure of transitional living. Hear directly from individuals who choose the streets despite a myriad of resources available. We all seek solutions, but when the laws we trust fall short, where do we stand? Join the conversation, share your thoughts, and let's search for answers together. Watch now and see the issue through the eyes of those living it every day."

"A Yes vote supported classifying certain crimes as misdemeanors instead of felonies unless the defendant had prior convictions for murder, rape, certain sex offenses or certain gun crimes; allowing resentencing for those currently serving a prison sentence for any of the offenses that the initiative reduced to misdemeanors; and creating the Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Fund to receive appropriations based on savings from the initiative. Some people calculate, 'Hey, you know, I don't want to go over the $950, so let me steal $949 worth of property'," said San Francisco Police Chief William Scott.[1] San Diego Police Chief Shelley Zimmerman described Proposition 47 as a "virtual get-out-of- jail-free card."[2]

Using numbers from early 2016, there were about 25,000 nonviolent state felons that could seek early release and parole under Proposition 57.[10] Proposition 57 was also designed to lower prison population numbers.[7] "
