I had to laugh when I read Jim Comstock's letter, “Robey ignores First District – and reality” (Oct. 10).

Jim Comstock is trying to change the subject by attacking me (none of his statements about me or my record are true – surprise, surprise) instead of addressing the issue that I raised about the thousands of dollars he has received from large landowners and developers.

This old trick won’t work, Jim. This election is about you; you are running for supervisor, not me.

So Jim, let me make it easy for you, by asking about just one of these many contributions: the single biggest contribution I have ever heard of in a supervisorial race coming from an individual. Peter Luchetti has given you $10,000. This is a huge amount. Jim, can you explain why anyone would contribute such a large amount in a local county supervisor race?

A direct and clear answer would be appreciated.

Ed Robey is District 1 supervisor. He retires at the end of the year.
