[UPDATE] Proof: candidate Ryan Maier is lying

[NOTE: The post below was originally published on 2/28, 10 days before Ryan Maier was elected commissioner in Lake Worth. Stacey Singer at The Palm Beach Post endorsed Maier citing his openness and transparency despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary. It was all ignored.
