Ray, what’s up with the T-shirts?

In a story that should surprise noone, City workers have been documented using taxpayer resources to campaign for an incumbant Council person.

The story was first reported by Maria at 2PJ here and by Agent Ska here. It’s also being covered by the Trib and the P-G.

According to the Post-Gazette, Kevin Quigley–Redd-Up manager and 27th Ward Committeeman who no doubt is completely shocked, shocked that City Workers are using taxpayer time to campaign for ACDC endorsed candidates–came to the scene to administer strict discipline: “They were chewed out.” (Unanswered question: Chewed out for breaking the law or for getting caught?)

One of the workers was Ray Sansone, treasurer for Jeff Koch’s campaign committee.

Today is turning out to be a pretty bad media day for Koch, as the South Pittsburgh Reporter endorsed challenger Bruce Kraus in a scathing editorial and Early Returns reporting that Kraus raised nearly twice as much campaign cash over the past four months than Koch.
