Bill Bruch was quite a guy back in the late 90s!

It amazes me how certain “financial managers” can build your trust and then steal you blind for $1.5 million! It amazes me even more when these types want to run for political office rather than running for the woods!

I was appalled to read about all the money candidate Bill Bruch (running for LD 10 House Seat) stole from unsuspecting elderly people in Whatcom County back in the early to late 1990s! One theft, (from John Blackmore, case #98-2-01077-7) was for $1,044,225.38 and the other (Lynda & Geraldine Dixon, case #98-2-01166-8) totaled $148,082.50.

Candidate Bill Bruch never showed up at one of these hearings and failed to serve or file any appearance or answer any lawsuits. Bruch was found in default in both cases. The total for Blackmore was $1,501,540.07!

Now I do not know if these victims still have the statute of limitations on their sides and can go after Bruch, but I do know this – I would never vote for a person with such a lack of moral character as this! It offends me, as a voter, that these charlatans can waltz in and want to run our government – usually, into the ground!

My vote goes to Dave Paul, who seems to have impeccable qualities. We need less Bruchs and more Pauls running our political system!
