Unmasking the False Claims against Ann Taylor and Ann-Marie Evans
Exposing the Lies about Ann Taylor and Ann Marie Evans and Setting the Record Straight in St Johns County
A recent email from a group calling themselves “St. Johns County Residents” is the most vile and deceitful hit pieces we’ve seen in this dirty election. Among its many lies it also falsely accuses Ann Taylor of having two foreclosures in Arizona—an outright lie.
The Endless Lies and Their Sources
Cover Up – UPDATE ALERT!!
Why did Campaign Manager Brianna Jordan suddenly change the address for the fake St Petersburg Group on her attack email after being called out? What are you covering up? Do your employers Dean, Whitehurst, and Alaimo know about your hit piece? Do they condone your propaganda?
You Can’t Hide the Truth! This is who represents the people that want you to re-elect them?
The source of this despicable email was traced to an expensive condo in St. Petersburg, Florida, far from our community. It’s clear that developer-backed PACs and their attack people will stop at nothing to keep the incumbents in power.
Spamming County Employees with propaganda: Complaints from teachers across the county have been coming in to us asking why they received this disgusting attack piece sent to their county email addresses. Did they use their private access to county emails to get this out there??
Why is the Campaign Manager for Henry Dean, Christian Whitehurst, and Roy Alaimo sending out nasty, false hit pieces on Ann Taylor and Ann Marie Evans?
Unlike all the attack pieces from Developer Funded PACs people have received over the past months this email points directly to Henry Dean, Christian Whitehurst, and Roy Alaimo’s campaign manager email account.
The same candidates that have been lying about not knowing about the hit pieces against the Anns. Are you saying their Campaign Manager is sending out hit pieces without approval?
Whose address is tied to the despicable hit piece email?
That address of the Condo linked to the email is owned by Brianna Jordan the campaign manager for Henry Dean, Christian Whitehurst, and Roy Alaimo.
The email contains numerous facts that are blatant defamation of character issues.
Tens of thousands of St Johns County residents received this email – Here is a link to the actual email – https://mailchi.mp/22034ca60523/liberal-democrat-activist-controlling-st-johns-elections-9077282
According to the email the group responsible is from St Petersburg Florida not St Johns County:
|
The email falsely claims that Ann Taylor and Ann-Marie Evans are liberal extremists attempting to hijack the St. Johns County Republican primary. It falsely accuses Ann of 2 foreclosures in Arizona and misusing HOA funds, and attacks Ann-Marie’s credentials and values.
All these allegations are baseless and are normally tactics used by developer backed PACs to discredit genuine candidates who want to serve the community.
The latest Hit Piece Email also called the Anns Puppets. Seriously? Who are really the puppets receiving special interest money?
Grass Roots fund raising versus Developer Backed PACs:
Both Anns have worked tirelessly to raise grass roots money while the Developer Funded PACs attacking them have spent over a million dollars to spread propaganda about the Anns to keep the real puppets Henry Dean and Christian Whitehurst in power.
All you have to do is simply Follow The Money!
Ask Yourself: Why Are Developer Funded PACs Investing So Much Money into this Election for County Commissioner?
Massive Financial Influence: Seven major developers have already spent $1.2 million to control our county government for another four years. They are using 77 entities and 8 dark money PACs to hide their donations, aiming to manipulate your vote with lies and misinformation. They know they can easily outspend the grass roots candidates Ann Taylor and Ann Marie Evans and try to fool voters into believing their lies.
Scare Tactics: The Big Lies about increasing your Taxes!
Tax Increases: Henry Dean and Christian Whitehurst tried to raise your sales tax by 15% in 2022 despite record property tax revenues. They also voted against the rollback on the millage rate, costing a property owner with a taxable home value of $500,000 an additional $1900 over four years.
The attack ads against the Anns claiming they want to raise your taxes are lies and just a deflection from what Dean and Whitehurst tried to do in 2022. At no time during this election has either Ann ever mentioned anything about raising taxes!
Learn the Truth about Ann Taylor and Ann-Marie Evans
Ann Taylor: Ann has been a resident of St. Johns County for 11 years, not a “transplant from Arizona.” She is a staunch conservative who has worked tirelessly to improve our community. Ann stopped county funding for an organization promoting “drag queen story hour,” proving her conservative values.
Ann-Marie Evans: Ann-Marie moved from a rural part of Washington State, not Seattle. She is a respected attorney with conservative values, mother to a U.S. Marine and a Sheriff’s Deputy, and married to a retired Police Sergeant.
The Real Agenda of Developer-Backed Commissioners – Dean and Whitehurst
- Continued Overdevelopment: Nearly 30,000 homes have been approved over the past 7.5 years, leading to our overcrowded schools and overcapacity roads. Dean and Whitehurst falsely claim they “kept taxes low” and “slowed the growth,” despite the evident negative impact of their policies.
- Misleading Claims about Taxes: Dean and Whitehurst’s ads lie about their tax policies and growth management. Dean approved 120 out of 121 development projects and supported high taxes, while falsely labeling Ann Taylor and Ann-Marie Evans as proponents of a fake “tree tax.”
The St. Johns County Republican Party Endorses Ann Taylor and Ann Marie Evans
Even the local St. Johns County Republican Party has disowned the incumbents and endorsed Ann Taylor and Ann-Marie Evans – known as “the Anns” – causing all kinds of bogus endorsement slates to crop up. Beware of the “SJC Trump Club” which is not associated in any way with Trump and whose “endorsements” are voted on by just 4 people.
Unfounded Attacks on Nicole Crosby
The developers’ allies are also attacking Nicole Crosby, a registered Republican instrumental in the grass roots election of slow the growth Commissioner Krista Joseph over the Developer backed Jeremiah Blocker in 2022. They fear her influence because she has successfully challenged their control. The smear campaign against her is another desperate tactic to undermine those who prioritize the community’s best interests.
For the past 2 years Krista has been outvoted 4-1 by the puppets for the developers. Krista needs the help of the voters in St Johns County to defeat these out of control growth votes, and the fiscal irresponsibility of taxpayer dollars.
Ask yourself, why is the richest county in Florida in debt?
Setting the Record Straight before the August 20th 2024 Election
The incumbents, supported by developer backed PACs, continue to spread lies to maintain their control. They are the true liberals, with Dean advocating for a Pride Month resolution and attempting a mask mandate during COVID-19. Dean and his wife have donated to numerous Democrats, including Andrew Gillum and Corrine Brown.
Don’t Let the Developers Buy Your Vote and continue their control over St Johns County for 4 more years
Henry Dean and Christian Whitehurst have no real plans to slow the growth and show little respect for the voters of St. Johns County. If voters want four more years of endless traffic, overcrowded schools, sweetheart deals for developers, more debt, higher taxes, and low wages for our teachers, then they should re-elect the current group of Commissioners.
Don’t be fooled by the lies spread by developer-backed PACs. The real conservative candidates, Ann Taylor and Ann-Marie Evans, are committed to responsible growth, fiscal responsibility, and improving our community’s quality of life.
