my name is peter ruckman, and i am a supporter and volunteer for the angela alioto campaign. i was able to meet angela as a student when i was studying for my master's in public administration degree. for the past few years i've been interning for a law firm doing interviews for individuals who are claiming discrimination and employment law infringement, and i'm here today to speak about the events that are affecting our campaign. on thursday, 5th -- on april, thursday 5th, we were informed that we were being pushed back on 200 donations, and for the next 24 hours between april 5th, and april 6th, we were -- we were to verify information for our donors. and i wanted to mention that the value of ensuring that donations are given fair and honestly is immense and needed to preserve our democracy. however denying a campaign contribution due to someone not filling out sfpd or sfusd made our task more onerous. because in the small amount of time, reaching out to over 200 people was a great task. i believe given the additional four days we will be able to meet the 50,000 goal and rec

i am a supporter and contributor of angela alioto, another native san franciscan. the reason why i'm here is because i know that this commission has very tender and sensitive powers, equitiable powers, we say in the law. and i hear fairness. in fairness, there's a theory of law called estoppel, and estoppel is when you have a rule of law, and you have an authorized agent as we have here -- and i really appreciate the executive director having the courage to sit here and tell you that her office made a mistake; that it should have been march 26th as opposed to march 27th, and i commend you for indicating that there were mistakes. but that -- that's not the only mistake, and that's what estoppel is based on. estoppel is based on the theory of equity where authorized agents like the executive director makes representations to people who with reason, rely on those statements, and then, there's prejudice because in relying it, because of mistakes, they are prejudiced, like angela alioto, who's prejudiced, who loses public funding of over $1 million. but it wasn't just o
