Oops -- My bad -- I actually hadn't read that. Although tantalizing it still 
doesn't support your claim. When Walker says "the workers probably didn't even 
know the difference" it doesn't suggest that there was a conspiracy to commit 
fraud between multiple administrators in UCD. It suggests John directed some 
low-level broom pushers to set up a moon bounce or do other innocuous chores 
they'd done before. Not that the upper echelons of UCD were in collusion to 
help Councilwoman Blackwell campaign in violation of the law -- which doesn't 
make sense _anyway_ since they seem to not get along -- why would Lewis go out 
of his way to do something to help her that could get UCD stripped of it's 501c 
status?

Though I've admonished others for speculating, it makes sense to me that 
Councilwoman Blackwell asked John to help out at a neighborhood picnic and he 
did, because they've helped out at neighborhood picnics and block parties 
before and it's one of the nice things that UCD does. And later that afternoon, 
knowing that there were going to be people there, she brought Tom Knox by; 
campaigning politicians are drawn to a crowd. That series of events makes sense 
to me and, I don't think, conflicts with any of the evidence. I certainly don't 
think John would have done anything he knew to be unethical. 

One thing I would like to know, which we probably never will, is "what does 
_set up the rally_ mean?" does it mean they set up a moon bounce and then when 
Tom Knox shows up later that day, the moon bounce changed from part of a 
neighborhood picnic to part of a campaign rally? Or does it mean they put Knox 
signs in the ground and handed out flyers? One's obviously unethical or even 
illegal, and the other, though I'm not a lawyer, seems a lot grayer.  All of 
this seems to hinge on that question and we have precious little evidence to go 
on. But, it's all behind us now and I don't know we're getting anywhere 
constantly going over something that's over and has worked itself out.

the 23 may issue of uc review? page 4:
