COUNCIL HOPEFUL FILES COMPLAINT OVER 2 RIVALS.Byline: Michael Coit Daily News Staff Writer Just days before the City Council election, candidate Marshall Dixon filed a complaint Friday with the state claiming opponents Linda Parks For the DC Comics character, see . Linda Park (born July 9, 1978) is a Korean American actress who is best known for her portrayal of communications officer character Hoshi Sato in the television series . and Dan Del Campo have violated vi·o·late tr.v. vi·o·lat·ed, vi·o·lat·ing, vi·o·lates 1. To break or disregard (a law or promise, for example). 2. To assault (a person) sexually. 3. campaign disclosure laws. The complaint contends that Parks didn't disclose paying her filing fee from personal funds and that Parks and Del Campo didn't properly disclose the source of two mailers. Dixon said the issues raise doubts about their abilities if elected. ``If this is the way they handle this kind of affair, how are they going to be able to handle a $63 million budget?'' Dixon said. ``Are they going to disregard the rules when they're not convenient for them?'' Parks defended both campaigns, which have combined efforts to win the two council seats that will be filled in Tuesday's election. Parks also criticized Dixon for including the election law charges in a mailer (1) An e-mail program. See e-mail program. (2) A message sent by an e-mail program. (3) A person or organization sending e-mail. sent to 18,000 households this week. ``They're trying to make the campaign the issue. The issue is the City Council race and what's good for Thousand Oaks Thousand Oaks, residential city (1990 pop. 104,352), Ventura co., S Calif., in a farm area; inc. 1964. Avocados, citrus, vegetables, strawberries, and nursery products are grown. ,'' she said. ``It has no reflection on my abilities.'' The complaint was mailed to the Fair Political Practices Commission on Friday. The commission doesn't comment on complaints, but a spokesman explained the laws involved in the Dixon's charges. The spokesman, Gary Huckaby, said a candidate must disclose payment of a filing fee from personal funds if that candidate raises or spends more than $1,000 during the campaign. Huckaby said mass mailings by two or more candidates who split expenses must include the candidates' names or the name, address and city of their committee. Dixon and Parks have different interpretations of whether Parks followed state election laws. ``Now that we are getting down to the end, I think it's time It's Time was a successful political campaign run by the Australian Labor Party (ALP) under Gough Whitlam at the 1972 election in Australia. Campaigning on the perceived need for change after 23 years of conservative (Liberal Party of Australia) government, Labor put forward a to tally up all of the things that they have done that are not in keeping with the rules,'' Dixon said. ``I think it's kind of indicative of a general overall attitude that they have brought to the campaign, that the rules apply to other people, but not them.'' Parks denies either she or Del Campo violated laws, calling the charges and the mailer a desperate form of negative campaigning Negative campaigning is trying to win an advantage by referring to negative aspects of an opponent or of a policy rather than emphasizing one's own positive attributes or preferred policies. . ``They're trying to throw everything they can at me,'' Parks said. ``If I could do another (mailer), I would, because this is a hit piece. I don't have the money.'' Other candidates appearing on the ballot are Norman Jackson The name Norman Jackson can refer to several notable figures in history:
