Dark Money Mailers:

Corporate politicians are flooding Ann Arbor with expensive mailers full of lies. The special interest groups behind these ads are the same ones that make contributions to our Mayor and City Council Members, and gave $30,000 DIRECTLY to their no campaigns - “Democrats for Ann Arbor.”

Michigan Deserves Better - President, Joe DiSano:

Twitter boots Lansing political consultant over ‘abuse and harassment’

In 2014, DiSano signed a public apology for 2012 robocalls that allegedly accused Democratic state House candidate Phil DiMaria of taking “dirty pictures in his basement” and “using the internet to lure young girls into nude modeling sessions at his home,” MLive reported. (Also see Detroit Free Press)

In that race, State Rep. Sarah Roberts had also said she wasn’t linked to the robocalls against her opponent. She also said DiSano was hired by a third-party group with a personal vendetta.

In 2017, DiSano faced criticism for helping to create a mudslinging political mailer for 4th Ward City Council candidate Jim McClurken. That mailer included an image of six young men and women of different ethnicities and the phrase “Lansing’s criminals want Jim McClurken to lose.”
