Little Saigon Mulls Poor Showing
by Vietnamese-American Candidates --
The writer for New American Media apparently was unaware of the absentee ballot returns. Contrary to his writing, two Vietnamese-American non incumbents won seats. Dina Nguyen received more votes than any other candidates for city council in Garden Grove and Troung Diep has picked up a seat on the the Midway City Sanitary District.
I agree with his assessment of Democrat backlash given the Tan Nguyen incident. However, both of these candidates were able to overcome this obstacle by virtue of a well executed absentee ballot program.
