Wrong Beaty launches 'rerun' for county commission

 

Informed VOTERS matter! 

Do your research before even considering voter for Convicted Felon wRONg Beaty.

Ron Beaty has a long history of insults, attacks, bizarre and disruptive behavior and temper tantrums. 

Public temper tantrums about a PARKING SPACE? 

LGBTQ insults? 

Out of state contributions flooded in to his opponent after Shoot From the Lip Beaty attacked school shooting victims. 

Self-described as '"the Donald Trump of Cape Cod," has no place in office.

'Convicted FELON wRONg Beaty, was planning on running for state treasurer, we will make sure you lose at least as bad, as you lost your home town elections for county commissioner last time. And yes we have copies of your bankruptcy records, where you paid no federal or state taxes for 4 years. You will never win as we educate voters about your record......and that is way before we educate voters on your rape letters you wrote to your ex-wife, or your bankruptcy. Save your campaign contributors their money, there is no scenario where you win.'

If this is the best CAPE REPUBLICANS can do, you're in BIG TROUBLE!

Ronald Beaty launches 'rerun' for county commission

WEST BARNSTABLE — Ron Beaty Jr. has decided he wants back into local politics.

The former county commissioner, a self-described fiscal conservative Republican, on Friday announced he is again running for County Commission "to restore some semblance of balance, transparency, and fiscal sanity to our Cape Cod Regional Government."

Beaty, a West Barnstable resident, was elected to the commission in 2016 and served from 2017 to 2021 when he was unseated by Mark Forest and Sheila Lyons. He then pivoted from an announcement to run for lieutenant governor to state treasurer, changing his mind once more when he thought incumbent Deborah Goldberg would not seek reelection.

"It is far more realistic for me to run for County Commissioners instead," Beaty emailed on Presidents Day.

Referring to himself on Twitter as "the Donald Trump of Cape Cod," Beaty has made a reputation for himself for positions he took on the LGBTQ community, immigration and other issues.

According to Beaty, the current "100% progressive, Democrat-controlled Board of County Commissioners is waging a self-destructive political war with the legislative branch of our county government, the Assembly of Delegates."

Both entities are at "complete odds" on how to spend $41 million in the federal COVID relief funds, he said. "They have made threats against one another about filing lawsuits. This is not how a regional government should be acting. It should be acting in the best interests of the taxpayers, voters, and citizens of Cape Cod, not as a dysfunctional entity at war with itself." vvvvvv>

Beaty said if re-elected, he'd use his experience and qualifications "to help set things right."

Barnstable County was allocated $41.3 million in the federal ARPA legislation. After a months-long public comment period, efforts are now underway on a process for distributing the money to towns and local organizations..

Last November, the commissioners voted unanimously on the following priorities, in rank order, for use of Barnstable County’s allotment of ARPA money:

• Invest in water, sewer, or broadband infrastructure.
• Fund public health system costs associated with the COVID response, and other costs and related capital investments necessary to strengthen the public health system of the county and its towns.
• Fund projects targeting the negative economic impacts of the COVID pandemic on households, small businesses, nonprofits, impacted industries, and disproportionately impacted communities.
• Fund proposals to replace lost public sector revenue and provide premium pay to employees providing essential work during COVID-19.

On a related note, a meeting of the Barnstable County Assembly of Delegates Standing Committee on Telecommunications and Energy is scheduled for 4 p.m. Wednesday.
