Steve Christy is lying to you to pander for your vote, and enough is bloody well enough. I have absolutely had it. I am beyond fed up and I am not going to listen to this garbage anymore.
The Arizona Daily Independent has received numerous emails via FOIA request between Christy and Sharon Bronson, or Christy and Chuck Huckelberry, or Christy and various other Pima County ne’er-do-wells, dating back multiple years.
But in his ads, in his very own voice, he claims he will be a “different kind of Supervisor”. What possible kind of Supervisor could that be? A rubber stamp who doesn’t scribble on pictures of interns? Give me a break! Rather than the lies, let’s look at some of the truth Sorry Steve Christy has written over the years.
Sorry Steve (February 11, 2006): “The proposed streetcar system reduces congestion and parking demand within this high-density urban corridor” “where 10 percent of the Tucson metro-area population lives, works or attends school.” (So pander to a fraction of the region with an expensive pork-barrel project that made driving through the corridor worse?) “It makes sense for all of us regionally.” (Emphasis added.) “There are no plans to widen such streets as Speedway, Campbell, Sixth Street and Stone Avenue” (but we’ll spend money on a choo-choo train). “As a member of the volunteer citizens committee that helped develop the plan, I hope that citizens of the region will…not nitpick at single, individual pieces of [the RTA plan]” (i.e. the streetcar).

Details Emerge On Winchester $1 Million Claim Against Tucson
Pima County Board of Supervisors candidate John Winchester and his wife are suing the City of Tucson for over $1 million for damages related to an injury to his shoulder when he rode his bike into the streetcar’s rails. The Notice of Claim was filed with the City of Tucson in September 2015, for an accident he had on University Avenue on March 23, 2015.
The lawsuit, filed by the law firm of Dwyer Hernandez P.C., names the City of Tucson, Granite Construction, Railworks Track System, and Old Pueblo Track Works as well as numerous John Does. The lawsuit does not specify Winchester’s injuries nor does it specify an amount Winchester hopes to collect.
According to the Notice, along with “his general damages and medical bills, Mr. Winchester has suffered lost wages and a loss in his earning capacity. Due to this incident, he has missed 15 days of work, which resulted in lost wages of $3,250.00.” Because his wife, Fernanda Quintanilla, acted as “Mr. Winchester’s full-time caretaker during his recovery and has a claim for loss of consortium. Ms. Quintanilla also had to take one week off of work and has lost wages in the amount of $200.00.”
