    "Michael Murray’s role as treasurer of Alfredo Pedroza’s supervisor campaign is documented at both ends of the committee’s filed life. The original Statement of Organization names him in 2015. The termination filing names him again in 2023.\n\n",
    "The California Secretary of State’s released Form 410 history covers committee **1374964**. It records a qualification date of **January 26, 2015**, with the original organization form filed February 3. The termination was effective **June 30, 2023**; its form was executed July 25. Those dates describe different steps and should not be collapsed into a single filing date.\n\n",

    "## A role that continued across election cycles\n\n",
    "The state-held set includes the original filing, two 2018 amendments and the termination. Murray is named as treasurer throughout that set, and the termination also identifies him as principal officer. The campaign’s name changed to reflect election cycles while the filer ID remained 1374964.\n\n",
    "This establishes continuity in the disclosed office across roughly eight years. It does not establish that Murray was paid for the role, what instructions he received, or who made particular campaign decisions. A treasurer’s name on a filing and proof of a specific act are different kinds of evidence.\n\n",
    "## The company role during the same period\n\n",
    "The January 2018 Napa Recycling proposal identifies Michael A. Murray as CFO of both the city and county recycling companies. The September 2019 county minutes identify him presenting a Zone One rate proposal. Both documents fall within the supervisor committee’s filed life.\n\n",

    "Local People for Balanced Leadership was a separate committee, number **1449337**. Its 2022 organization form names Murray as treasurer and principal officer while the supervisor committee was still active. Preserving those separate committee IDs makes the overlap visible without merging the entities or treating one committee’s transactions as another’s.\n\n",
