San Mateo County Times covers CUSD campaign controversies

There’s an article in today’s San Mateo County Times covering the "Citizens for Coastside Schools" ad and various contributions to CUSD board candidates that echoes coverage that you’ve probably already seen on Coastsider. There are two additional nuggets: HMB Review Publisher Debra Godshall said they were "looking into" who paid for the anonymous ad in last Wednesday’s Review (which shouldn’t be too difficult) and the first (qualified) denial by Charlie Gardner of "direct" knowledge of who paid for the mystery ad.

Although the Review has had a week to look into the identity of the authors of the ad, the results of any investigation won’t be made public until after the election, unless they post it on their own Web site ... or release it to Coastsider.
