This primarily concerns the Waterford board recall, which succeeded on 1/31/2011. This effectively recalled all board members except one who favored the special-interest group which first focussed on one issue, then moved on to "find" as many reasons as possible to recall the board members who had supported a clear majority of Wateford homeowners on that issue. "Find" is in quotations because substantially all reasons cited by the rebellious group were either factually false or spun to imply fault of the 2010 board where in fact no fault existed.

In short, the campaign against the 2010 board was demonstrably libelous as demonstrated by campaign statements published to Waterford Owners, and almost certainly slanderous by verbal repetition of the same claims. The end result was that too many Waterford Owners believed the falso claims and the recall succeeded. A contributing factor was low response from homeowners other than the organized faction in the recall election. In this writer's opinion, this is a pathetic reflection on public affairs, where now even at the neighborhood level arbitrary political belief has replaced reality and reason.
