Election 2019: The buying and selling of a city, or our updated master list of 73 Gahan wheel-greasers, a veritable pornographic potpourri of pay-to-play.

On March 22, 2019 we surveyed Jeff Gahan's campaign finance haul for the years 2011-2018.

The Jeff Gahan Money Machine, Part 20: Buying and selling a city? Our master list of 59 Gahan wheel-greasers is a pornographic potpourri of pay-to-play.

The ranks have swelled and the dollars mounted. Now, with voting under way and election day just around the corner, here's an update including the first three quarters of fundraising in 2019.

Since finance reports were made available last week, there have been two updates at NAC.

These 30 free-spending special interest donors top Jeff Gahan's 2019 pay-to-play campaign finance windfall of $150,000 (so far).

CFA-4 Follies: OMG, just look at Gahan's huge pile of special interest donor cash flowing to out-of-towners.

We've been plumbing the depths revealed by almost nine full years of the Committee to Elect Gahan's CFA-4 campaign finance reports, and I'm happy to announce that my gag reflex has been tamed by the sheer numbness of repetition -- and gin.

Let's repeat some numbers.

2011: $56,515
2012: $16,575
2013: $30,350
2014: $58,795
2015: $103,532
2016: $51,799
2017: $56,225
2018: $64,250
2019: $147,739 (first three quarters)

Total: $585,780

Yearly average: $65,086 and change.

Gahan began 2019 with $128,733 cash on hand; add $147,472 and the total amount at Dear Leader's disposal in 2019 (so far) comes to $276,472. He has spent $204,967 of this pile.

It boggles the mind. We're a city of 36,000, with a median household income circa $44,000. In 2015, Gahan received 3,527 votes to win re-election. If he gets that many again, he'll have spent $58 for each.


Without further introduction, here's the lowdown on Gahan's donors of $1,000+, with donor companies and their individual tithing components grouped as efficiently as possible.

Bear in mind that a huge number of these selfless mayoral supporters have scored no-bid design and engineering contracts during the past eight years. Others are city employees eager to retain their sinecures. Statistically the tiniest pool of Gahan voters are ordinary folks making small bets. Numerically, they're almost non-existent.

I've probably missed one or two, and remember, this entire list takes into account legal, recorded donations. Fish bowls, fruit baskets and Keeneland handshakes are not included.

→ $91,987 -- 16% of Gahan's total take since 2011

These 73 donors/shared interest groupings have accounted for 90% (530,862) of Gahan's $585,670 total stash.

Of the 30 donors and donor shared interest groupings tithing $5,000 or more to Gahan since 2011, 22 are from out of town, and only 8 from inside city limits.

Collectively they account for 60% ($349,170) of the campaign finance dollars Gahan has collected in all, and I defy readers to point to a single one who has not benefited "contractually" from the joy of giving. Think of the millions of dollars that bounced to them to take back home, even as Gahan's minions composed yet another press release testifying to the innate genius of the humble veneer peddler.

The conclusion is clear.
