  • 7/9/97 - How Mayor Brown deals with the local news media. No detail too small.

  • 7/8/97 - What happened to the dozens of complaints San Franciscans called in to the Department of Elections the day of the election? Were they saved? Were they trashed?

  • 7/3/97 (received) - Former SF housing commissioner asks the feds to investigate stadium election finances.

  • 7/1/97 (received) - The incredible saga of the disappearing election records. Now you see them. now you don't. If there's nothing to hide, why won't Director of Elections Germaine Wong and Mayor of San Francisco Willie Brown let Doug Comstock examine the voter books of precincts where fraud is suspected?

  • 6/24/97 (received) - The letter from Zachary Reed of the San Francisco Housing Authority, dated May 30, 1997, requesting that the Registrar of Voters set up special polling places "at our 'Big Four' sites" three days in advance of the June 3rd election. The $2,000 check paying for these services from the federally-funded Housing Authority. Also a memo from the office Secretary of State dated 2/21/96 to all California County Clerks and Registrars of Voters warning them not to set up "special," early polling places for partisan purposes.

  • 6/21/97 - In spite of a near total press blackout on the issue, San Franciscans are beginning to learn more details about the irregularities in the stadium election as well as the mayor's subsequent maneuvers to prevent investigators from examining the voting records. Scores of protesters marched in front of the Fairmont Hotel, the headquarters for the 65th Annual Conference of Mayors, to show their concern.

  • Video stills of personnel from Mayor Brown's political staff handling ballots and supervising the ballot counting process: Georgia Dunn and Steve Nelson. Also, some background on Germaine Wong, Jim Ross, and the San Francisco press.

  • Photo of the "Yes" precinct captain arrested on two felony counts of voter fraud - presumed innocent until proven guilty

  • 6/17/97 - Press Release from the Committee to Stop the Giveaway. Note: This group opposed the Stadium propositions on fiscal and legal grounds. Obviously, they have a point of view.

  • Bogus Parking Permits

  • 6/12/97 - Press release from District Attorney's office
