The Mayor is the last line in fiscal responsibility for the City. The Mayor signs all the checks that flow from City Hall. I am the one that caught her last year filing a bogus expense report for a trip she never drove. When the Council censured her and barred her from any involvement with fiscal responsibility I asked her if she would sign an expense report for a trip that a person did not drive and she said yes. Some might say I am being to negative but I am simply relating her past actions. I did not make her take any of these actions but I did shine the light of day on them. I will continue to openly discuss what is happening in our great City so long as I serve. We can not go back to the days of the good old boys and girl running the town.
The following link is a recap of her use of a city credit card for personal use, her attempt to get paid for a trip she never drove and her pulling the winning rodeo button a few years ago in private and the winner happen to be a close family member.

The next two links are my postings about asking her to step down from her Council seat.

This story shows her close relationship with Brian Iverson's attempt to silence my criticism of his ill affects on the city of Isanti.

This is another story on her allegiance to Brian Iverson and trying to keep hm on our Economic Development Authority which was a terrible conflict of interest.

CM Larson ran in 2006 for Council saying Isanti taxpayers were not taxed enough and she proved it by this vote.

I will be writing extensively about our differing votes and future plans for Isanti. My record is clear:

I need your help more now than ever.......

are you kidding me. who would vote for her. she tried to take our money and now wants the top job protecting it. is this some bad dream?
ReplyDeleteThe people of this town cann't elect her. We would be the laughing stock of the state. OMG this can not happen.
ReplyDeleteNot to worry, George. Isanti will not elect her.
ReplyDeleteLike with any big change the old guard tries one last grasp for power thinking no will notice or think they have a chance.
ReplyDeleteFight George fight you are bulldog like your favorite Churchill
Are there any statutory limits on how much she can steal from the city? It will be interesting to see if anyone actually votes from someone who was caught stealing three different times.
ReplyDeleteThere is no way she would ever be elected. I said that 2 years ago though and she slipped in.
ReplyDeleteWhat is she going to run on, raising taxes and I do not like George for catching me?
Amazing, simply amazing. I'm shocked she even has the gall to run. If she were to somehow get elected it would be a HUGE statement regarding the people of Isanti, and I'd start looking to move.
ReplyDeleteWho would support her. Who would say yes I will vote for the one who try to steal mony from the city and not for the one that protected the City? Seems pretty simple to me.
ReplyDeleteIt will be interesting to see who puts Larson for Mayor sign in their yard. Tell your friends and neighbors in Isanti what the truth is.
ReplyDeleteYou can not lose this election. If she wins we will all be a joke. Other than being mad at you what is she going to run on?
ReplyDeleteDoes she hate you that much that she would be willing to drag herself through the mud again? What does she want to do? Raise taxes, stop the businesses coming from town, detroy the new level of ethics in town. Who is paying her way? I thought her big developer friend is broke.
ReplyDeleteIt should be fun to see her campaign promises and slogans. I will guess that ethics and reducing taxes will not be included in her promises.
ReplyDeleteIsanti has elected an interesting group of people in the past.
ReplyDeleteYou should win but do not take it for granted.
This is all the reason we need to stand together and fight for the good of all the people. The last thing anyone of us wants is to go back to the old ways of tax tax tax. We need to keep budgeting properly and spending wisely, especially during this housing slump. If we run the city correctly we will come out of this recession looking good. Please check out www.lower-isanti-taxes.com to learn more about Ross Lorinser for Isanti City Council
ReplyDeleteGood to see Ross support George. We can not go back to the bad old days.
ReplyDeleteMan I can not wait until her campaign lands at my door. I want to see what her goals are and then drill her with my questions about her past actions.
ReplyDeleteThis will be better then creative ways to make solicitors go away.
I guess this is assuming that she will actually go door to door to talk to people like George and others have. Eastlund was just at my door today. If he can make it, she better.
Sue was working for Johnson for Commissioner. Is she going to stop that now or do both. She was in the parade for him and was doing the stuff on saturday for him.
ReplyDeleteWin baby win
ReplyDeleteIf Isanti elects someone that tried to steal from the city than what hope do we have.
when i fist read this i thought it was a joke. who would support her?
ReplyDeleteI am very glad to see all the support for George. When I frist heard the news, I thought the same as the previous anonymous poster - "Is this a bad dream?" I am very glad that all the shady things have come back to light, so the citizens of Isanti remember the "mistakes" of the past. VOTE GEORGE WIMMER!
ReplyDeletehmmmm there is nothing i can add other than repeating what has been said. i just want you to know you have my support.
ReplyDeleteVOTE GEORGE WIMMER MAYOR
You have changed how the city is run. no more back room deals, no more giving to the favroites, no more high taxes or crazy spending, no more intimidation. We would not know anything about how the city operates if it were not for you. You busted up the old bunch.
ReplyDeleteYou tell what you think and why you vote a certain way. You rock and you have to win. We should all remember if it were p to sue this blog would not even be here. She obeyed Iverson and try to shut George down from bring the truth to the people. God Bless you.
Wimmer for Mayor.
George, keep fighting for honest, open government meant to help Isanti. Say no to Larson's back-room, secret deals meant to help only herself and special interests.
ReplyDeleteKeep up all of your good work for Isanti.
