PLEASE help the Democrat FIRED for running for office in FL (donate, comment & keep kicked) [View all]

[nashville_brook]

Viviana Janer is an amazing woman running for County Commission in Osceola County which is just south of Orlando. She worked for the Marriott time-share company for ELEVEN YEARS until she decided to run for office when they fired her. Why did they fire her? Because they are supporters of her opponent John Quiñones, who is a darling of big business special interests.

With $60,475 in his campaign fund Quiñones has a huge fundraising advantage over Janer's $18,345, who now has to deal with losing her job. Meanwhile Marriott stroked a $1000 check to the opponent. THIS IS WRONG.

So PLEASE DU -- this is super important. You can make a difference for this Democrat. Take a moment to donate just a few bucks to her campaign, or at least leave a message of support on her website.

here's the link which will take you to a PayPal option for donating -->

Osceola Commission candidate fired after refusing to quit campaign

Viviana Janer is a Democratic nominee campaigning for a seat on the Osceola County Commission. She's also newly jobless.

Her longtime employer, Marriott Vacations Worldwide, fired her after giving her an ultimatum: Quit the campaign or lose your job.

Janer, a Democrat and first-time candidate for office, won the Aug. 26 Democratic primary for District 2 with 79 percent of the vote. She will face incumbent Republican Commissioner John Quiñones in the general election on Nov. 4.

But the time-share company where she had worked for 11 years dismissed her Friday, saying her candidacy and possible service on the commission created a conflict of interest. Janer was given the choice of leaving the campaign or resigning. She declined to do either and was fired.

According to campaign-finance reports, Marriott International gave $1,000 to Quiñones' campaign in March. Marriott International spun off Marriott Worldwide Vacations in 2011.
