Literature being passed out by South Tahoe Public Utility District incumbent Ernie Claudio is causing a stir.

The second page of the two-page information sheet lists 102 names of people under the heading “I depend on these people for advice and they know me on a first name basis.”

The document implies the individuals are supporters of his. The names were used without the person’s knowledge or consent.

Lake Tahoe News Publisher Kathryn Reed is one of the people listed. It was brought to her attention by another candidate for the utility district board. Claudio has promised to not use her name in the future. Others have called and emailed Claudio demanding their name be removed from his campaign literature.

Sources have told LTN that the Fair Political Practices Commission has been notified.
