Ces Butner, a Port of Oakland Commissioner, has so far spent 20k on candidate & independent expenditure committees. He supports the most conservative candidate in every Council race: Jackson, Walton, Johnson thru direct exp--via PACs, McElhaney & against Fife/Kaplan #oakmtg 
One of these is from his wife. Usually when there's a power differential like this in the marriage--Teresa isn't employed-- its just a way for the more powerful partner to make an extra contribution, but I can't state that as an absolute fact, so.
If people paid attention to the Port appointment process, they'd have to ask under what possible rubric you'd keep appointing this fella. But its obvious that a Port Commission appointment is an influence/favor factory
