Marlon Bolton Solicited And Delivered Campaign Checks To Tamarac Commissioner Morey Wright From Garbage, Towing Companies


Marlon Bolton solicited and delivered campaign checks to fellow Tamarac Commissioner Morey Wright from garbage and towing companies, records show. One day after Wright was elected to the Tamarac Commission, Bolton filed a “Campaign Fundraising For Other Candidates Disclosure Form” with the city clerk. Bolton admitted to raising campaign funds for Morey Wright and Wright’s opponent, Stuart Michelson.

On the form, Bolton wrote, “Delivered a contribution from Coastal Waste to Morey Wright on 10/25. Communicated with Waste Management 10/26, provided Westway Towing # 10/27. Provided contact for Malcom Butters to Michelson campaign on 10/27.”

Bolton listed a $1,000 check from Coastal Waste and a $500 check from Westway Towing.

Marlon Bolton signed the form.

The official campaign treasurer’s report for Morey Wright listed a $1,000 contribution on October 25, 2022 from Coastal Waste. On October 28, 2022 Wright listed a $500 contribution from Westway Towing.

Does Marlon Bolton regularly solicit checks from companies that do business in the City of Tamarac?

Earlier this month Broward County Commissioner Hazelle Rogers (D-Purple Bird) rehired Bolton as her commission aide.

Will Marlon Bolton solicit campaign contributions from companies doing business with Broward County?


Marlon Bolton Strikes Again? New Mystery Mailer Hits Tamarac Mailboxes

A mystery mailer entitled “Moving Tamarac Forward” is hitting Tamarac mailboxes this week. The Democrat friendly voting recommendations are a carbon copy of Tamarac Commissioner Marlon Bolton’s previous attempts to influence local elections. A disclaimer states the mailer was produced by a Tampa based political committee (more on that later).

Unsurprisingly, Moving Tamarac Forward recommends Elberg Mike Gelin for mayor. Gelin and Bolton are close allies who turned Tamarac into a political laughingstock. Gelin and Bolton are desperate to unseat popular incumbent Mayor Michelle Gomez.

The pick for the District 2 seat on the Tamarac Commission is somewhat surprising. Moving Tamarac Forward picks Morey Wright over Stuart Michelson. Wright is a shadowy perennial candidate in multiple races. Michelson and his wife, former Broward County Commissioner Ilene Lieberman are closely allied to Bolton and Gelin.

Stay tuned.
