Valencia, CA – Following days of silence and calls by the Mike Garcia campaign to fess up, Christy Smith confirmed to voters that she is a hypocrite when it comes to her supposedly rejecting lobbyist and corporate PAC dollars. In a Zoom Town Hall this week, Christy Smith admitted she’s “moving on all fronts” to secure funding from Washington organizations who are heavily funded by lobbyists and corporate PAC’s.
“The more things change, the more they stay the same – Christy Smith for years accepted millions from organizations funded by lobbyists and corporations, but now after supposedly swearing off lobbyist and corporate PAC money she’s begging for help from the D.C. insiders who are bankrolled by the very folks she claims to reject,” Lance Trover, Mike Garcia Campaign Spokesman said.
Smith has claimed she wouldn’t accept lobbyist and corporate PAC money despite accepting more than $1.3 million from the California Democratic Party, an organization partially funded by corporate and business donation.
In a now curiously missing tweet, Smith claimed it was OK to accept corporate PAC money, then flip-flopped to claim she would only refuse tobacco, oil and pharma money only to later claim she will refuse all corporate money.
