.Perata-Linked Group Reports Spending $137,000 on His Behalf

A Sacramento group with close ties to Don Perata has spent at least $137,000 trying to get the ex-state senator elected mayor of Oakland, according to new filings with the California Secretary of State’s Office. The reported expenditures by the group, Coalition for a Safer California, which is run by Perata’s longtime friend, Paul Kinney, and is funded by some of the ex-senator’s best donors, appears to be the most that any outside group has ever spent in an Oakland mayoral election.
