Company Owned By Tamarac Commissioner Marlon Bolton Made Numerous Contributions To PAC Tied To Marlon Bolton

Last month, a political committee tied to Tamarac Commissioner Marlon Bolton reported numerous contributions from a company owned by Marlon Bolton, records show. Since 2014, Marlon Bolton has owned and operated Forecast Holdings, LLC. State election reports show Forecast Holdings, LLC made four contributions to Residents United PAC during the month of December.

On December 1, 2021, Residents United PAC reported a $4,500 contribution from Bolton’s Forecast Holdings, LLC. On December 4th, Forecast Holdings, LLC made a $1,728.05 “in-kind” contribution to Residents United. The record shows the contribution consisted of “post cards and signs.”

On December 29, 2021 Forecast Holdings, LLC made another in-kind contribution to Residents United PAC consisting of $524.30 worth of postcards. On December 31st Residents United PAC reported a $518.95 in-kind contribution by Forecast Holdings, LLC for “eddms services” and yard signs.

“Every Door Direct Mail” (EDDMS) is a method to target mail to specific households.

Residents United PAC reported four expenditures in December 2021. Minuteman Press in Coral Springs received a $3,261.48 payment on December 7th for mailing services. On December 8th, Murry Robinson received a $500 payment for Get Out The Vote (GOTV) canvassing. Robinson is often employed by political campaigns supported by former Broward County Commissioner Dale Holness.

On December 9, 2021, Residents United PAC paid $1,000 to WZOP for radio advertising. According to its website, WZOP is “South Florida’s 24/7 Non-Commercial Caribbean Radio Station.” WZOP claims the City of Lauderhill and the City of Lauderdale Lakes are two of its sponsors.

These contributions were reported days following the Democrat primary for U.S. Congress District 20 where overwhelming favorite Dale Holness was beaten by political newcomer Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick by five votes.

Did Residents United PAC use Marlon Bolton’s contributions to aide Dale Holness’ lackluster campaign?

Last year, REDBROWARD exposed Marlon Bolton’s deep ties to Residents United PAC and other mysterious political committees involved in Broward elections.

RESIDENTS UNITED?

REDBROWARD revealed a company tied to Marlon Bolton provided services to the 2020 campaign of Tamarac Commissioner Elvin Villalobos. State records show Carl K. Williams is the managing member of the company. The State records list P.O. Box 246164 in Pembroke Pines as the mailing address for Mojo Global Holdings.

State records list Carl Williams and the P.O. Box 246164 on the business records for New Convenant Ministeries International-Miami Florida. While the post office box is listed as its mailing address, since 2017, corporate records show the principal address of New Convenant Ministeries International-Miami Florida as 1625 S. State Road 7 in North Lauderdale.

Since 2015, the storefront at 1625 S. State Road 7 in North Lauderdale has been the principal address for Praise Experience Worldwide Outreach Church. This church is owned by Marlon Bolton.

Not only is Carl Williams a Bolton appointee to the City of Tamarac parks & recreation committee, new videos show Williams assisting Bolton during church services at his North Lauderdale church.

On April 12, 2019, Carl Williams created the “Go Tamarac Go PAC” using the P.O. Box 246164 mailing address. The only money listed in the Go Tamarac Go reports is a $1,750 contribution by the PAC’s treasurer Joseph Malucci. Tamarac campaign records show Malucci made contributions to Marlon Bolton’s campaign.

Also on April 12, 2019, Carl Williams formed the “Residents United PAC” using the P.O. Box 246164 address. On July 31, 2020, Residents United PAC received a $7,500 contribution from Exy Consultants at P.O. Box 451711 in Fort Lauderdale and a $1,000 contribution from Joseph Malucci.

But these contributions were not made by “Joseph Malucci.” There is no “Joseph Malucci.” They were made by Malucci Joseph, a Fort Lauderdale female who performs during services at Bolton’s Praise Experience Worldwide Outreach church.

In addition to her roles in Go Tamarac Go PAC and Residents United PAC, Malucci Joseph is the chairperson and treasurer of the Tallahassee based Conservative Governance PAC.

Why do so many parishioners of Marlon Bolton’s church end up opening political committees?

Trace Robinson another church associate of Marlon Bolton operates the mysterious Happy Feet Advertising company. REDBROWARD documented Marlon Bolton’s ties to Happy Feet and Robinson.

Marlon Bolton refuses to answer questions about his ties to these companies and political committees. Why would someone need so many cutouts to support local campaigns when Bolton could offer support in his own name?

How long will Marlon Bolton be allowed to act with impunity while flouting campaign rules and regulations?

Tamarac residents deserve answers, right?

RETURN OF HAPPY FEET: Radical Florida House Candidate Elijah Manley Hired Company With Deep Ties To Tamarac Commissioner Marlon Bolton

Radical Florida State House candidate Elijah Manley paid nearly $3,000 to a company tied to controversial Tamarac Commissioner Marlon Bolton, records show. In December, Manley, a Democrat seeking the State House District 94 seat, made two payments to Happy Feet Advertising LLC. REDBROWARD previously revealed the Margate company is operated by a close ally of Bolton.

According to State corporate records, Happy Feet Advertising LLC is owned by Trace N. Robinson. While the business paperwork shows a Margate address, the mailing address for Happy Feet Advertising is listed as P.O. Box 451711 Fort Lauderdale, FL 33345.

State records also show businesses owned by Marlon Bolton use the same post office box.

Florida business records show the post office box address used by Happy Feet Advertising has been used by Marlon Bolton since at least 2014. These businesses include Tyson Bolton and Associates, Forecast Holdings, LLC, Prophet Fire, and Win Without War. These same records show Marlon Bolton and Trace Robinson are business partners.

Records list Marlon Bolton and Trace Robinson as owners of The Driven Project, Praise Experience Worldwide Outreach Church, and South Florida Theological Seminary, Inc. The companies also use the same post office box.

In 2020, Trace Robinson created the Broward Vision PAC political committee. The address for the PAC is the same post office box used by Bolton.

State of Florida campaign records show Broward Vision PAC paid $1,400 to Exy Consultants, a corporation created under the Happy Feet Advertising LLC name by Robinson. Exy Consultants used the same P.O. Box 451711 address as Marlon Bolton.

According to Tamarac campaign reports, Commissioner Marlon Bolton provided Happy Feet Advertising with its biggest payday. Reports show Bolton paid nearly $14,000 to Happy Feet Advertising during the 2020 election cycle.

Commissioner Marlon Bolton refused to answer questions regarding his close ties to Happy Feet Advertising, LLC and its work for numerous Broward politicians and committees.

In April 2021, REDBROWARD exposed the roles Bolton and Happy Feet Advertising played in the election of North Lauderdale Commissioner Regina Martin. Campaign records show Happy Feet Advertising, LLC performed extensive campaign work for the newly-elected Martin. Campaign treasurer reports show Martin paid $14,750 to Happy Feet during the 2020 election cycle.

Last March, REDBROWARD asked Marlon Bolton about his ties to Happy Feet, Trace Robinson and fake news website The Tamarac Post.

We asked Bolton if he had any financial interest in Happy Feet. We asked Bolton if he played any role in political campaign which hired Happy Feet.

Marlon Bolton refused to issue any comment or denial on this facts.

In a text message, Bolton wrote, “Oh! Go ahead write away…Sir, whatever you want to write, you can…”

MANLEY GETS HAPPY FEET

Now, campaign records show Elijah Manley paid Happy Feet Advertising LLC for “monetary” work on his State House race. On December 19, 2021, Manley paid $1,200 to Happy Feet Advertising LLC. On December 30, 2021 Manley gave $1,600 to Happy Feet Advertising LLC.

Days later, Elijah Manley blasted opponents for calling him a “puppet” of former Broward County Commissioner Dale Holness. Manley, a former Holness aide, hired a company tied to Holness ally Marlon Bolton and he does not want people to notice?

The radical Manley is no stranger to controversy.

In 2018, REDBROWARD exposed Elijah Manley’s run for President of The United States as a a socialist party candidate. In 2015, published reports documented Elijah Manley’s trip to the Socialist Party convention in Wisconsin. Manley told the New Times, “He identifies as an independent but says if he had to label his political leanings, he’d call himself a Democratic socialist. He’s one of seven candidates slated to speak and debate at Socialist Party USA’s national convention in Milwaukee….”

REDBROWARD exposed Manley’s radical views on Israel, North Korea and law enforcement. Manley posted “ Fuck the police” on his social media accounts.

REDBROWARD revealed Elijah Manley role as a member of Team Dale Holness. In addition to working for Holness’ 2016 re-election campaign, Elijah Manley employed Dale Holness’ daughter Damara Holness as his campaign manager when he ran for the Broward County School Board. Dale Holness endorsed Manley’s school board campaign.

All residents in State House District 94, regardless of party affiliation, can vote on January 11, 2022. Elijah Manley is running against fellow Democrats Daryl Campbell, Josephus Eggelletion III, and Roderick Kemp.
