UPDATE: One of our eagle-eyed Friends has discovered that Cynthia Ward, aka “Colony Rabble” picked up on this post and shared the news with her fascinated readers over there.
What caught our attention was her statement that we have been deleting her comments over here. That is patently not true. We don’t delete comments here – except in really, really rare instances, and Ms. Ward is far too civil to ever trip our threshold.

Following up on our brilliant post about the carpetbaggin’ Anaheim councilman/billiards aficionado Harry Sidhu taking up residence in the 4th Supervisorial District, we turn our focus on the race’s other carpetbagger – Lorri Galloway, who until recently, lived in the 3rd Supe District along with Harry.
One of our Friends just got an invitation to a campaign coffee klatsch with Lorri “in the comfort” of her “lovely restored historic home” in Anaheim’s Colony District. She seems to have moved into a neighborhood near the busy corner of East St. and Lincoln, in a small enclave carved out by the UP underpass in which the City of Anaheim facilitated an historic preservation petting zoo. Not the greatest neighborhood, to be sure, but a whole helluva lot better than Sidhu’s crib farther west on Lincoln Avenue.
Convienent, Lorri can take the bus
Say, what is it about Lincoln Avenue that attracts Anaheim Hills carpetbaggers?

Did she sell her other house?

It’s easy to commute from your real home in the hills to your “place of residence” by going down Nohl Ranch Road which turns into Lincoln. You miss all the freeway traffic making it a very quick commute.

Look at that real eastate sign. This is not even a residential property. Plus there’s a huge concrete driveway parking lot.
You either have the wrong address or somethin’s fishy here!

How did a house with no driveway end up three feet from a bus shelter? I think this photo is from inside Disneyland.

I’m glad to she Lorri has such respect for Anaheim’s history that she moved into the historical neighborhood.
That shows real commitment to the community.

The three houses on that corner are a little commercial enclave; they used to all be part of the same quilt shop, with (IIRC) some kind of on-site living quarters for the proprietor. Looks like those quarters are now Lorri’s “lovely restored historic home”.
As far as how living here “shows real commitment to the community”, get real — she grabbed the closest property she could find quick and cheap, without living in the midst of the Anaheim Colony old-house types (who all hate her guts), or the low-rent, high-crime apartment buildings that line East Street (but her “heart” lives amongst her people there, even though her body does not, so it’s all okay!)
If you were settling down for keeps, would you take a house on a busy corner with a bus stop right in front and a concrete parking lot for a yard?

Do carpetbaggers get to claim their rent as a campaign expense?
#8 by Hmmm on January 14, 2010
Now that’s an excellent question! If they do their contributors can pay the rent for the uninhabited “residence.”

Not in LA. they go to jail for doing this exact thing, it’s fraud which is a felony.

Think her phony house is bad? Check out her lame-ass website.

What in the HELL? I sure hope Shawn does something better than this…

Galloway seems to be all about her own self-promotion. Her site stresses “her cuteness” discusses not a single issue.
Does she have a clue about anything?

This one not too bright
#13 by Colony Drivell on January 14, 2010
At least this looks like a place Lori would actually move to. Sidhu isn’t even pretending he is moving to the Linbrook pool hall.
Hell, even Linda and Dick Ackerman kept up the facade. My question is, which is worse? The guy that never even pretends to move or the guy that at least acts like he moved in to the district for the election.

OCTA must keep that route. Then she can use public transportation to get to work. Ha Ha
#15 by G. Pla on January 15, 2010
Art, for some reason (Lorri loves to where super high heels) I can’t see her riding the bus.
Plus, she won’t be living in the office shown in the picture, just pretending it’s a house and that she’s living in it.
#16 by Kim on January 15, 2010
I really don’t think that her website is lame ass; it seems that Shawn’s campaign is.
#17 by Weat Side Guy on January 15, 2010
Are you kidding me?
Other then some press photos for you to download and an address to send money to, there is no content.
Perhaps you had a hand in developing the music, or the cookie?
#18 by Kim on January 15, 2010
No I didn’t because I am not that creative. However, Lorri could give Shawn a hand with his campaign that is unheard of by many.
#19 by Weat Side Guy on January 15, 2010
Help yourself to some info:

Don’t cry to us because Lorri has no stance on anything outside of Anaheim–where they don’t even want her.
If you need the numbers from the Norby race, I can show you where Dem’s finish around here…
#20 by What? on January 16, 2010
Red County and LiberalOC are both talking about this post. What’s funny is that you are now known as “The FFF people” or the “the site that shall not be mentioned by name.” Ain’t that a kick in the pants.
#21 by Jay Johnson on February 28, 2010
I think she now lives near the Ruby’s in the Five Points District.
