A former Viet candidate for OC Supervisor and his treasurer (also Viet) may face a fine for failing to report almost all of a quarter’s spending, reports the OC Register here. The expenditures were not disclosed until a new treasurer took over and filed an amended report.
Hoa Van Tran was one of 3 candidates, all Vietnamese-American, fighting for the seat of OC Supervisor, 1st district, in 2008. The other two are the incumbent Janet Nguyen and Garden Grove Council Member Dina Nguyen.
The treasurer for Tran’s campaign is his boss at his day job, lawyer Phu Do Nguyen. Both Tran and Phu Do Nguyen may be subject to a $2000 fine by the Fair Political Practices Commission when they meet next week on May 13.
Reached at Phu Do Nguyen’s law office, where he works, Tran told Nguoi Viet reporter (the Bolsavik in his day job): “There’s nothing to comment, really, it’s just a mistake in the paperwork.”
The unreported campaign expenditures consist of 13 items, totaling $18,012 and amounting to 94% of the spending in the period of January 1 to March 17, 2008.
The Bolsavik has said it before, and will now say it again: Just as you shouldn’t date where you work, you also shouldn’t let your boss at work be a staff member on your campaign.
The three-way race ended with Janet Nguyen getting reelected with 55.4% of the vote, Dina Nguyen 28.2%, and Hoa Van Tran 16.2%.
A Democrat, Tran had planned to force a runoff provided that the two Nguyens would split the GOP vote.
xu, you are a mockery of animal kingdom.
1) you have sub IQ than any walking animals.
2) has blurred vision about life & death.
Jung Kim,
See, you just proved my point.
Making personal insults instead of actually debating. And you call yourself a Christian? What a joke.
at least she’s not marrying a felon this time. Let’s keep this one out of jail ok DINA?
xu, it’s you who can’t take the truth like a man…..hmm I mean a boy!
i know …, in love with Dina, go face her face to face! Why have fear?
You must be still in love with her.
kImmy, dizzy D. were eager to marry any body that stupid enough to say “yes” . Andy must be a lot smarter than Dovinh, that’s why she couldn’t get him to say ” I do “.

Reading posts from Jung Kim, Da Thug, Viet pride. One could not help but wonder, if this is the way the little saigoneses talk then there will be no hope for the community (if there is one).
kImmy, the way you talked about her … joe mama must be your mama. That’s the only explanation why she hate Loretta.
Viets voters regrets about van mafia!

kImmy, you’re the one who’s weeping for van. And Dovinh, a baby killer like Loretta who happen to be van’s friend, and since you’re weeping for van …. any friend of van should also be your friend right?
Dovinh = Baby killer = van’s friend = kImmy’s friend
Dovinh = Loretta = BAD
Remember: van is sinking faster cause he is fatter!
Looking at Hoa Tran and Van Tran pics, I don’t know which one is worst, they all look like crooks don’t they?
So cheating our government and ripped off tax payer’s money is good for our citizens? Your bias judment is what humoring me!

And I bet van didn’t spend tax payers money on his vacation cause he want his bank account to get as big as he is.
Playing with finger is the only way van taught you, but hey whatever satisfy your muff …
Right?
Just Asking like a Virgin, to whom have you lost your virginity to? Can’t remember?
Kimmy; The only Virgin name with Capitol C is a proper name as we use in The Virgin Mary. Other virgins would be all in lower case.
Are you still suffering from that adolescent Freudian subconscious love?
Talking about nightmare, how is van sleeping these days?
Remember : if Loretta is sinking then van is sinking even faster cause he is fatter!
We are all supporting our good Assemblyman.

Loretta = BAD!
Loretta = Baby Killer
If your leader is good why should you worry kImmy?
http://www.stopvangang.com
You don’t have time to worry about me kImmy, you have van to worry about!
You are partially correct ….whore Loretta has to worry about her job.
People are sick of her mismanagement!
http://www.sinksanchez.com
If people are sick of Loretta’s mismanagement then people has more reason not to vote for van, a dirty politician who’s hungry for more power but doesn’t have the ability nor the intelligent to do half of what she can. Beside using the Viet community for votes, what else is van good for?

Just Asking like a Virgin, Your boss Loretta has been a 100% failure for our community and we are going to boot her out this November!
Good bye to whore loser Loretta!

kImmy, you want to know how many people believe van would be able to replace Loretta? Jusk do your own survey then you know. Plus you need to really talk to van beside what’s he been telling you in the bedroom then you’ll see the guy have no ability nor the intelligence to take over Loretta’s position.
Good buy van, your day depend on viet voters is over.

Thats a nice write-up! I am so pleased you thought to talk about it.
Your Loretta Sanchez’s days in the Congress are numbered, Just Asking! Why don’t you talk to people in Santa Ana? People will vote this lady out. She has not done anything other than travel on junkets overseas.
Loretta Sanchez will be defeated this November. I talked to a lot of people and they wanted her out. Just Asking, Loretta is done.
Loretta Sanchez is a loser and her whores are crying their last cries. She’s gonna lose to Van Tran and her people are squealing like pigs going to the slaughter house. She hasn’t done much for the Vietnamese community, but her mouth is loud. Ssanchez is a political fraud.
Doug & shame, if Loretta hasn’t done much for the Vietnamese community then van certainly has done jack for our community. I rather pick someone who has done something over someone who has done nothing. van and his gang have shamed our community and the Republican voters long enough. There isn’t anything conservative about him and the rest of his followers who are nothing but loser, drunker, and whore.
