Todd Weiler's Donation to Richard Watson


The Real Story

On a earlier post titled Davis County Republican Chair endorses Democrat? I reported that Davis County Republican Chair, Todd Weiler had made a donation to Democratic Chair and House District 19 candidate, Richard Watson.

Here's the real story.

Mr. Weiler did send Mr. Watson a donation on Mr. Watson's Act Blue site, but what I did not reveal earlier was the amount of Mr. Weiler's donation, a whole dollar.

That's right, one big buckaroo.

After Act Blue took their share Mr. Watson received .87 cents. My guess is that it cost more money to print and send the check than the dollar would cover.

I hope Mr. Weiler has as good of a sense of humor as Mr. Watson does.

A few weeks ago I asked Mr. Weiler for his bio and invited him to be a contributor to The Utah Amicus. I received his bio which I hope means he will be sharing his thoughts with us from time to time. I will be posting his bio after the election so stay tuned to The Utah Amicus as we take the leap into bi-partisan territory.

After a weekend of frustration, my blood pressure has finally gone down! Next time, give us the whole story from the beginning. It will save me in antacids.
