I previously reported on Marcelo Llorente registering to run for Miami Dade Mayor saying that the almost $200,000 he has raised so far was impressive. I neglected to mention Llorente's Treasurer who happens to be Jeannine Riesco. The
Riesco name should sound familiar as I reported on it March 15th. Jeannine works for Jose A. Riesco. I said that the Jose Riesco connection on the District 8 race would give candidate Pereira an advantage with fund-raising. I believe the same is true here with Jeannine Riesco.I am assuming she is Jose's daughter.
A reader mentioned that Jorge Luis Lopez,is the real force behind Carlos Alvarez's fundraising. I assume this is he.

Cute girl!
Marcello is not going to run for Mayor. He is parking the cash in that account, and will transfer it to a County Commission race, probably in District 11, and challenge Juan Zapata for the seat that Joe Martinez will vacate when he runs for County Mayor. The Reisco's are not fundraisers. He is just a figure head for the current Mayor's favorite lobbyist, Jorge Luis Lopez.
speculations, speculations...
Wasn't Lopez, one of Penelas' boys?
Correct Anon#2, I agree with that. If you walk into Little Joe's office, you can see dozens of photos of Llorente & Martinez together. JM would have removed them at the first hint of Marcelo running for mayor.
The good thing is, Little Joe will NOT be elected.
