Will wonders never cease.....Matt Tolman has had to back off of his vicious, nasty, libelous, ridiculous attempts to make Randy Parraz look bad, when reality, the bad idiots are Tolman and HIS ilk AND Russell Pearce. Good for Mesa! I hope they enjoy taking down those 300 signs in this hot weather!!!!

State Senate President Russell Pearce what part of illegal don't you understand? You've been in enough campaigns to know the law. As a retired sheriffs deputy and a fired MVD director you definitely should know the difference between legal and illegal.

Tolman's being very cocky about placing the signs up in September.
Since when is it legal to spread libel all over the city? He still hasn't addressed the lies on the signs. In addition, since Parraz is not a candidate, nor part of an initiative, the signs should not be considered part of the campaign but the self-indulgent piece of (offensive term) that they actually are and should be thrown in the trash with all the other illegal scheme signs that get posted in Mesa.
Political strategists should be brought into the light and into accountability. You can tell more about a candidate by who their strategist is, than you can by any of the nonsense rhetoric that mumbles out of their mouth. Especially in Pearce and Tolman's case.
Bravo to the City of Mesa officials who abide by the law. Pearce and Tolman could take a lesson from them.

According to the Maricopa County Recorder's office and county court arrest records, Randy Parraz resides in NORTH SCOTTSDALE, where he owns a large home, which is Arizona state senate District 8. Why is someone who lives in another state senate district, meddling in the affairs of OUR state senate District 18? Where's the transparency by way of a full financial disclosure for Parraz's recall committee that he stated he would provide to the public? Something smells real bad, but it's not in Mesa, it's up in North Scottsdale.
