CCPOA transfers $500,000 to No on 93

Late Wednesday, the California Correctional Officers Association created a new, happily named campaign account, "California Correctional Officers Association Truth in American Governmental Fund," and added a bit more than $1 million.

The group immediately transferred $500,000 to the new No on 93 campaign account funded by Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner.

The guards union had originally backed the term limits campaign, which will appear as Proposition 93 on the Feb. 5 ballot, but switched positions last week.

Andy Furillo reported the details on the switch earlier this month.
