Well, full disclosure, I'm a Nenshi supporter. That said, we're getting his spin here. He thinks that there is a violation of the electoral finance laws, and I'm just not sure that there are/were violations here. Add to that the fact that documents from 2010 were likely already destroyed and it turns into he said/she said pretty fast.

It's is disturbing how often we seem to agree lately! I chalk it up to the fact that you're smart and I'm right, so eventually you were bound to see it my way!

Right now we don't have enough information. What if there was a fee charged for the trucks? Then it's an expense, not a gift in kind.
They talk about people building signs; those are volunteers, again not a gift in kind.
And again, Druh was supposedly aware of this. Why wasn't an investigation launched back in 2010?

Well there are a number of questions. Are developers donating to the Manning group (whatever its called) making campaign donations? That seems to be the tenuous link here. If those funds are merely funds donated to a non-profit then as shady and distasteful as people would like it to appear are just grasping at straw.
