Lowry Event Draws Many
March 4, 2010
District five commissioner candidate
Fred Lowry is
reporting that his campaign kickoff fundraiser attracted over 200
people this past Sunday at Wes Crile Park. Country music
artist Scott Brown provided live entertainment for the crowd and
Lowry presented details of how he is gong to bring needed change to
Deltona. Lowry expressed a passion to bring Deltona together.
Lowry said "It was awesome and people
were jazzed!"
He said the concerns he heard most from
citizens' were regarding taxes and jobs. Lowry vows to work
towards lowering taxes and attracting jobs to Deltona. He said
another re-occurring issue echoed among citizens is the need to take
our government back, to make things right in that area.
Lowry is quickly becoming the district
five forerunner with his impressive campaign staff of 53.
Also in the
district five commission race are Commissioner
Janet Deyette,
David McKnight and Rafael Valle.
While Lowry and staff celebrate their
successful campaign kickoff, district one
Commissioner Zenaida Denizac is excitedly gearing up for her
campaign kickoff event
coming up this weekend.

Candidate's Campaign Hampered
by
Stolen Signs, Voided Voter Signatures
March 4, 2010
Mayoral candidate
Robert
Desmond got an early start this election, but his early-bird
enthusiasm seems to be working against him and now that proverbial
worm can't be had without some extra - and repeated - effort.
Desmond, who launched his mayoral candidacy in August of 2009,
recently submitted his nominating petitions for validation.
But much to Desmond's surprise, City Clerk Joyce Kent rejected
over 70 of the nominating signatures, saying they were obtained too
early and are not on approved forms.
Needed to qualify are at least 150 valid
signatures of registered Deltona voters. Desmond says he
worked hard to obtain those nominations from voters and that he used
a State-certified form to do so. He says "To ignore their
signed petitions to put my name on the ballot is a direct assault on
the democratic process."
Kent says that per City Code, the City
recognizes only nominating signatures that are on petition forms
that were obtained from the City Clerk no earlier than January 6,
2010. Desmond obtained his petition forms in August 2009, from
Volusia Supervisor of Elections Ann McFall's office.
Other than a small box to list the
nominee's party affiliation and another for the nominator's
precinct, the forms are virtually identical, contends Desmond.
He said the forms he used all have the party-affiliation box checked
to indicate this is a non-partisan race. The mayoral
election is open to voters of all city districts.
McFall's office has validated the
signatures, but being that this is a city election, the City
Clerk must also validate them. City Manager and former City
Clerk Faith Miller backs Kent on her decision to not honor Desmond's
petitions, but is also currently seeking legal counsel on the matter
from the interim City Attorney.
Compounding the blow, Desmond - who
has been diligently filing campaign treasurer's reports since August
2009 - was required to sign for a newer version of the Candidate
Qualifying Packet on February 10, and the city is also rejecting the
signatures he obtained prior to that day as well.
Just in case the city ultimately stands
firm in not honoring the contested petitions, Desmond immediately
started over again to collect nominating signatures from voters.
Because of a referendum passed last year by the city's voters, in
lieu of obtaining nominating signatures candidates may instead pay a
qualifying fee of 3% of the annual salary for the office being
sought. For Desmond that equates to $342.
The deadline to obtain nominating
signatures or pay the qualifying fee is May 24, 2010.
Reportedly Commissioner
Janet Deyette
has also been met with the same invalid-petition predicament in her bid for re-election.
Mayoral candidate David
Santiago, and re-election contender
Commissioner Zenaida Denizac have both successfully submitted
enough valid nominating signatures to get their names on the ballot.
Further testing Desmond's perseverance,
dozens of his campaign signs are reportedly being stolen from
supporters' yards. Desmond first noticed the signs missing in
November, and has even
offered a reward for information leading to an arrest.
Desmond met with the city's code enforcement department to see if
they had removed any of his signs as code violations, to which they
responded no.
Also
running for mayor are former Mayor John Masiarczyk, former Vice
Mayor David
Santiago, and newcomer Jacinto Garcia.

Denizac Passes
Qualification Hurdle
February 27, 2010
District one candidate
Commissioner Zenaida Denizac has received official notice from
the Supervisor of Elections that she has met the qualifying
requirement of providing at least 100 nominating signatures of
registered voters.
Denizac, first elected in 2005, is known
for her perseverance in making a stand for what she feels is right
despite the 4-3 commission majority typically following Mayor
Mulder's lead instead.
When Mayor Mulder led Commissioners
Treusch, Deyette, and Carmolingo into voting without legal advice to use tax dollars to sue their critics, it
was Commissioner Denizac who motioned to have her name removed from
the list of commissioners who would benefit from the ill-advised and
highly controversial vote. Commissioners Zischkau and
McFall-Conte then followed Denizac's lead and requested their names
also be removed from the list of beneficiaries of taxpayer-funded
lawsuits.
Denizac wants to improve public safety
in Deltona and vows to work towards lowering taxes.
Denizac is looking forward to meeting
with citizens at her upcoming campaign kickoff dinner. The dinner will be hosted Saturday March
6, at the DeLand Holiday Inn located at 350 International Speedway
Blvd. Festivities begin at 6:30 pm. Tickets are required
to attend the the special dinner, and are available for $25 by
contacting Commissioner Denizac at
zenaidadenizac@yahoo.com
.
Seating is limited, so it is best to
secure your tickets early.

Santiago Set to Qualify
as Candidate for Mayor
February 24, 2010
Conquering another milestone of
his campaign, Deltona mayoral candidate David Santiago has passed
the signature-validation portion of the qualifying process.
Through letters received today from the city clerk and county
Supervisor of Elections, Santiago is relieved to learn he has
officially met the requirement of obtaining at least 150 valid
nominating signatures of registered voters.
All that remains for Santiago to qualify
as a bona fide mayoral candidate is to take the candidacy oath and
sign the qualifying papers.
Santiago's opponent
Robert
Desmond also recently received letters from both the city clerk
and supervisor of elections. The city is contesting
the validity of most or all of the nominating signatures obtained
thus far by Desmond, saying they were obtained too early.
Desmond says he doesn't understand why the city clerk is taking this
position on the issue. He's says he's as legal as can be, that
"I have followed all the rules and regulations, even for my
signs. But just in case, Desmond says, he's already begun
starting over to obtain his nominating signatures.
Stay tuned to Deltona Bona Fide for more
news on that as it becomes available.
Both candidates are joined in the
mayoral race by veteran and
former Mayor John Masiarczyk, and newcomer Jacinto Garcia.
With the nominating milestone behind
him, David
Santiago is excited to be moving forward and is humbled by how
receptive citizens have been to his candidacy so early in his
campaign. Santiago wants lower taxes and honest government.

Lowry to Hold Campaign

February 24, 2010
District five commissioner candidate
Fred Lowry is
inviting all citizens to his upcoming campaign kickoff rally.

February 28, at Wes Crile Park Pavilion 1. Festivities will
begin at 3:00 pm and include live music from country music artist
Scott Brown. Children's activities will be available for the
kids and snacks will also be provided.
Also in the
district five commission race are Commissioner
Janet Deyette,
David McKnight and Rafael Valle.
Lowry, pastor of Deltona Lakes Baptist Church, has a B.S. in math
education and both a Masters Degree and PhD in New Testament
Theology. Lowry and his wife Vicki have two daughters, one
attending Deltona's Pine Ridge High School and the other in Daytona
State College.

Denizac Reaffirms
Commitment of Integrity
February 23, 2010
Commissioner Zenaida Denizac has announced that she's collected
over 140 signatures towards qualifying as a candidate for the
district one race. In her
door-to-door travels, Denizac said, she has been welcomed with overwhelming
support.
Denizac said "People are paying
attention to what's going on in our city."
Denizac said her constituents have given
her a loud and clear message that they are tired of wasteful
spending and they want tax relief now. Denizac says she's
listening to her constituents' concerns and she's reaffirming her
commitment to serve them with integrity and sensitivity to the
current economic hardships they are faced with.
Denizac was first elected as
commissioner of district one in 2005. Despite often being in
the minority against the customary Mulder-led 4-3 votes, Denizac is
known for standing up for doing the right thing.
When Mayor Mulder led Commissioners
Treusch, Deyette, and Carmolingo into blindly voting, without first
seeking legal advice, to use tax dollars to sue their critics, it
was Commissioner Denizac who motioned to have her name removed from
the list of commissioners who would benefit from the
highly controversial vote. Commissioners Zischkau and
McFall-Conte then followed Denizac's lead and requested their names
also be removed from the list.
Denizac will be holding her
campaign kickoff dinner in early March.

Mayoral Race Heats up to Four
February 19, 2010
Jacinto Garcia, 40, registered as a
mayoral candidate today, bringing the total number of mayoral
candidates to four. Garcia is new to Deltona's political
scene, having never served in a public position or spoken at
commission meetings in Deltona, but the man whom Garcia hopes to
replace - Mayor Dennis Mulder - was also new to Deltona's political
scene when he was elected in 2005.
Also running for mayor are former Mayor
John Masiarczyk, former
Vice Mayor
David Santiago, and newcomer
Robert
Desmond.
Several months ago Mayor Mulder
reportedly told the West Volusia Beacon that he was going to run for
re-election, but as of today he has not yet registered as a candidate.

Race to Unseat
District Five's Deyette Intensifies
February 17, 2010
Today Rafael A. Valle added his name to
the race for district five commissioner, a seat currently occupied
by Commissioner
Janet Deyette. Of candidates seeking to
unseat Deyette, Rafael brings the total to
three. Joining Valle and Deyette in the race are David
McKnight, Sr. and Dr.
Fred Lowry.
Former chairman of the city's Planning
and Zoning Board, Valle came to the United States 49 years ago from
Mexico-by-way-of-Cuba to chase the American Dream.
He has also served as Volusia County building inspector for 13 years
and was a local businessman.
District five's new 2010 contender Valle
is no newcomer to elections, as he ran unsuccessfully for Volusia
County Council District five in 2002 and he ran for Deltona's
district five commissioner in 2001 but lost to Diane Obremski.
Valle ran for the city's district five seat again in 2005 but was
ousted from the race in the primary. Deyette later won that
race after facing off against McKnight.
Deyette has been criticized heavily by
local gadflies for often being silent while sitting at the dais
except to make Mayor Mulder's motions for him (Mulder is prohibited
from making motions while chairing the commission meetings).
One of Deyette's first acts as commissioner after being elected in
2005 was to warn Volusia county to "not be too trusting of us...
I'm amazed at your trust of Deltona."
Deyette has also been the butt of jokes
and criticism for her 2009 motion to use tax dollars to sue the
critics of Deyette, Mulder, Treusch, and Carmolingo, but more
particularly for her statement "At the risk of appearing
incompetent, I guess I should have asked what the motion was that I
made... because I'm not sure now what I voted on."

Santiago Collects 200 Signatures to
Qualify for Mayor Race
February 11, 2010
Candidate for
Deltona mayor, David Santiago, announced that he has collected
200 signatures to qualify for his race to be mayor. In just a few
weeks, Santiago's campaign collected more signatures than what is
required. "I am amazed and humbled by the outpouring of support
that our campaign has received," said Santiago.
Santiago, who kicked off his campaign
just a few weeks ago, enjoyed a favorable turn-out at his first
rally. Offering what he believes to be the reason his campaign has
taken off so quickly, Santiago said, "People are excited about my
message of eliminating wasteful spending. They want lower taxes!"

REMATCH! District
Five Selection Pool Grows
February 1, 2010
U.S. Army veteran
David McKnight, Sr. has filed papers to
launch his District Five Commissioner candidacy. No stranger
to the community, McKnight currently serves as President of the
Republican Club of South West Volusia, has also spearheaded
Deltona's annual Spring Fest as its President, was chairperson of
the City's Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee, and is a Cub
Scout Leader.
McKnight, 47, hopes
that this election can be conducted without mudslinging and negative
attacks. McKnight ran for district five commissioner in 2005
and did so without resorting to dirty campaigning then, but his
campaign rival Janet Deyette prevailed in that election.
Deyette, along with newcomer
Fred Lowry, are also running for the
district five commission seat, making this
election a rematch between McKnight and Deyette.
Having more than two
candidates in the race means there will be a primary election before
voters can make their final decision in November, unless one of the
candidates receives more than 50% of the votes in the primary - in
which case the race ends there.
McKnight, a proponent
of bringing more businesses to Deltona to increase its tax base,
feels more businesses in the bedroom community will lessen the
growing tax burden on residential property owners. He also
feels that Deltona should not expand its boundaries through
annexations, voluntary or otherwise.
A graduate of Kent
State University, McKnight and his wife Natasha are blessed with two
children.

leader to many Deltonans as pastor of Deltona Lakes Baptist Church.
Lowry has a B.S. in math education and Masters Degree and PhD in New
Testament Theology. Lowry and his wife Vicki have two
daughters, one attending Deltona's Pine Ridge High School and the
other in Daytona State College.
Lowry has served as a high school principal and has pastored for over

ELECTION POOL DOUBLES IN JANUARY
BREAKING NEWS:
Commissioner Zenaida
Denizac
Announces
Candidacy for Re-election
January 20, 2010
...And then there were six.
Commissioner
Zenaida Denizac filed candidacy papers
yesterday afternoon with the City Clerk for her district one re-election campaign.
Denizac vows to work towards lowering taxes and improving public
safety. Over the last several years, the tax burden on
Deltonans has increased significantly and law enforcement street
patrols have been decreased by the Mulder-led commission majority.
Denizac wants to correct that.
Earlier this month political newcomer
Michael Richards entered the district one race, but has been quiet
so far.
Less than two weeks ago, former Vice
Mayor David
Santiago entered the mayoral race, and is getting his campaign
in high gear this Saturday at the Veteran's Memorial Park, with his
Campaign Kickoff.

2010 ELECTION GETTING INTO GEAR EARLY;
SANTIAGO IS IN!
January 19, 2010
With ten months to go until voters
select its future leaders, Deltona already has an electricity in the
air that is 100% election. In what is supposed to be a
non-partisan race, rumors are already circulating of unlikely
bedfellows conspiring
across party lines with sitting officials to derail the re-election
campaigns of incumbents so that they may easily assume the public office, campaign signs have gone missing (suspected
stolen), and misinformation is already being broadcast from a local
blog, confusing voters as to who is actually running for election.
PUBLIC OFFICES UP FOR ELECTION
Up for grabs is the office of Mayor of
Deltona, currently occupied by Dennis Mulder, who - after being
elected - calls the public office of Mayor "some pathetic
office."
The mayor's office was originally scheduled to be up for election in
2009, but Mulder - along with Commissioners Deyette,
Carmolingo and McFall-Conte, voted to extend their terms by one
year. Commissioners Zischkau, Denizac, and Treusch opted to allow the voters
to decide whether or not they extend their terms in office.
Making for an unusually odd
election, also on the block for voters are
the commission seats for district one, three and five.
Commissioner Deyette is registered as a candidate for re-election
of her district five,
but Commissioner Denizac has not yet made public her candidacy
intentions for district one.
Vice Mayor Michele McFall-Conte, first elected in 2001, is
termed out. Her position as commissioner of district three is
the only open public office that currently has no candidates
competing for it.
Mayor Mulder, actively recruiting
commissioner candidates from his pool of MySpace friends, said "there
is a commission seat open to anyone with a pulse, to replace a
moron!" He encouraged online friend Adriana "you'd do
awesome."
MISINFORMATION DISPELLED:
BOGUS CANDIDATE ANNOUNCEMENTS
Currently, only five hopefuls are
registered candidates; mayoral candidates
John
Masiarczyk,
Robert Desmond, and
David Santiago, and commissioner
candidates Janet Deyette and Michael Richards. But if you
believe what you read at
Michael
Kiepert's blog swvolusia.com, four others are also candidates:
Michael
Kiepert and
Mayor Dennis
Mulder (both reportedly running for mayor), and
Zenaida Denizac
and David McKnight (both reportedly running for commissioner seats).
However, after Kiepert's blog was
exposed at
deltonachat.com for its errant reporting, the bogus candidacy
announcements were quickly removed from its pages.
Making Kiepert's prematurely announced
mayoral candidacy even more bizarre is his public proclamation during the
previous commission election: "I have decided to support and vote
for Dr. Miller for no other reason that[sic] he is not associated with
Jamie [Jessup] or the Mayor [Mulder] and I would encourage everyone
else to seriously consider that logic as well. All I want is seven
(7) independent people with no ties to development, the Mayor
[Mulder] or any special interest groups which would include
political activist group or political activist individuals."
As the organizer for Mulder's private
advisory meetings, Michael Kiepert has strong ties to Mayor
Mulder, and similarly contrasting his own proclamation, Kiepert
is one of three members of political activist group Deltona
Facts.
BONA FIDE
CANDIDATES
District one commissioner candidate and
political newcomer Michael Richards has been quiet since registering
his candidacy.
Commissioner Janet Deyette also seems to be running a quiet
campaign so far, in her quest for re-election as district five
commissioner. Deyette, who launched her candidacy in early
2009, is reporting zero dollars in total contributions to
date, despite having received $500 from Enterprise's Sandy Walters
and despite being an accountant.
Having served two terms, Mayoral candidate
John
Masiarczyk was Deltona's first mayor and is
to be credited for his role in seeing Deltona through its uphill
incorporation battle to be Volusia's largest city, so it could govern itself.
Masiarczyk's we-mean-business leadership style is reputed to
be the reason why Deltona was sometimes referred to as Volusia's 800 lb.
Gorilla, up until 2006.
Mayoral
Candidate Robert Desmond is a fresh face to Deltona politics,
but has been effectively busy nonetheless. Saying he wants to create
jobs in Deltona, Desmond began campaigning early, and it shows.
Despite the alleged theft of some of Desmond's campaign signs, it's
difficult to drive through any part of Deltona without seeing a
handful of desmondformayor.com signs in yards.
The latest to announce his candidacy,
Mayoral
Candidate David Santiago served as Vice Mayor of Deltona and
also as its district two commissioner. Santiago, a proponent
of lower taxes and less spending, is looking forward to meeting citizens
this Saturday at the Veteran's Memorial Park, during his
Campaign Kickoff.

MAYORAL CANDIDATE'S CAMPAIGN SIGNS DISAPPEAR;
REWARD
OFFERED FOR TIPS LEADING TO ARREST
November 9, 2009, updated November 10
DeltonaBonaFide.com received this press release from Deltona Mayoral
candidate Robert Desmond:
As many of you know, my campaign is
in full swing. We already have a lot of activity going on and the
support for my candidacy for Mayor of the city of Deltona is amazing
and getting stronger by the day.
As many of you can tell by now, I am a man of action. I am not
waiting for the campaign to come to me, I am bringing my campaign to
the people of Deltona.
With that said, I have some bad and very disturbing news!
Somebody has already STOLE my political signs! Now, who would have a
motive to do such a thing?
My campaign is based solely on the issues I believe that are facing
the people of Deltona.
I have not made a personal attack on anyone - and I will not make
any personal attach on anyone - that is currently a candidate for
the Mayor's office, or may become a candidate for the Mayor's office
or the incumbent Mayor.
My organization and I are working hard to get my message out to the
people of Deltona. I have organized public events for the near
future, I am going to be in the Deltona Day Parade and my crew and I
have already been out on the streets (Saxon & I4) and (Howland & I4)
waving our signs so people know I am running for mayor.
Needless to say, someone does not like the progress that I am
making!
Needless to say, someone must be worried that my message is getting
to the voters!
Needless to say, someone is already playing dirty politics! Well,
this is the exact reason I am a candidate for Mayor of Deltona - to
cleanup this childish behavior and put a real man in the Mayor's
office in this city.
To that end, I will be filing a police report with the Volusia
County Sheriff's Office and I will prosecute to the full extent of
the law when the criminal is arrested.
If anyone has any information leading to the arrest and prosecution
of this (these) criminals I will give them a $25.00 reward. At this
time this is all my campaign can afford - and of course I now need
to replace the signs that were stolen!
The location of the signs were as
follows:
-
1 Sign was on Saxon Boulevard just
before you get to Finland on the right hand side of the street as
you are leaving Deltona heading toward I4.
-
1 Sign was on Saxon Boulevard just
before you get to Normandy on the right hand side of the street as
you are entering Deltona coming off I4.
-
1 Sign was on the corner of New
Mark and Humphrey
-
1 Sign was on Humphrey as you
turned the corner onto Humphrey from New Mark.
-
The sign is BLUE with White Letters
that say "Desmond For Mayor.Com"
The signs on Saxon were stolen
between late Saturday night 11/08/2009 and early Sunday 11/09/2009.
The signs on Humphrey and New Mark were stolen late Friday night
11/07/2009 and early Saturday morning 11/08/2009.
The person(s) who stole these signs knew exactly where they were
placed. And, these are low pedestrian walking sites so its very
unlikely somebody picked them up to take them home for a souvenir.
I also have a challenge to all candidates for Mayor - Lets Discuss,
Lets Debate, Lets put our message out to the people of Deltona and
let them choose who the next Mayor of Deltona should be and Lets
STOP the pettiness that has already polluted this campaign.
Thank you for your continued support in helping me make Deltona a
better place to be and a better place to live.
Sincerely,
Robert Desmond
www.DesmondForMayor.com
Candidate, Mayor of Deltona
(386) 860-9457
Mr. Desmond contacted City code enforcement and learned that they
had not removed any of his signs.

2010 Deltona
Mayor's race grows
August 28, 2009
Robert Desmond announced
his 2010 candidacy today, offering voters a choice between himself
and Deltona's first Mayor
John Masiarczyk.
Desmond says that Deltona
needs better government than what is being delivered now by Mayor
Mulder. He has a detailed plan of action that shows much
thought has been put into his decision to run for the office of
Mayor.
Citing City Hall
mismanagement, misinformation, and misuse of tax dollars, Desmond
wants to lead the city away from the "self-inflicted controversies"
of the current Mayor.
Not known is whether or not
controversial
Mayor Mulder will seek re-election. However,
Mulder's private meeting organizer
Michael Kiepert has said that he's
sure the 2010 election will be waged with "full color glossy
postcards" of person(s) who "are due the notoriety,"
hinting at a nasty and personal election season.

RACE FOR MAYOR
