Four Viets in Westminster elections

One candidate for mayor plus three for city council, add up to a rather sedate slate of Vietnamese-American candidates running for public office in the city of Westminster.

The excitement that would have come with the mayoral race never materialized. Incumbent Margie Rice will face former Garden Grove Planning Commissioner and head of VHN-TV Bruce Tran (Mr. I’m Not Threatening You in the video at the end of this entry; he’s to the left in the photo above).

Tran earlier was voted onto a 7-seat board member of a community group called the “Vietnamese American Federation of Southern California.” The group is intended to be some sort of umbrella representative of the community. The top three vote getters were to be President and Vice-Presidents. Tran placed the communicative power of VHN-TV fully behind his candidacy, and placed, well, 4th.

Accusations soon arose, however, that the 3rd-place finisher cheated. Tran was vocal in opposing her, and she was kicked out, Tran moved up to third, and got a vice-presidency. Then Tran also got into a fight with the 6th-place finisher, who was later also out of the board.

So, both of the 3rd and 6th-place winners, Ty Dao (Đào Bích Ty) and Hai Duong (Dương Đại Hải) pulled papers to run in the mayoral race, obviously out for revenge in an attempt to sabotage Tran’s campaign. 

The two never completed their paperwork, however, and Tran is clear to be on his own and take on the incumbent this November.

That's Khoa Do standing to the right. Bruce Tran is seated second from left.

On the council side, the two incumbents Tri Ta and Andy Quach, he of the smiley face fame, are facing a whole slew of challengers, including Vietnamese who was prominent in the protests against a Vietnamese singer.

Khoa Do, a personality on Vietnamese-language radio, is running as a change from the old guard. At the planning meeting to welcome their hero Ly Tong and plan the protests at Anaheim Arena, Do served as the moderator of the meeting. That’s him to the right in the photo.

    Even though I think Bruce Tran is a corrupt big mouth loser, I think Margie Rice needs to go. She is a closet racist redneck who has screwed the Vietnamese community one too many times. I’ll vote for Bruce.

  2. Zap your mouth Giap! says:

    Seriously, you really want ” a corrupt big mouth loser ” to become the mayor of your city? Are you drunk or are your out of your mind?

  3. Hoa thuong Thich Du Thu says:

    Bruce Tran sounds like a complete narcissistic asshole. Y’all better off with Margie Rice because at least she’d made the effort to don ao dai and looked totally ridiculous.

  4. Jung Kim says:

    Bolsavik needs to step up and fill in the leadership gap. Marge Rice is too old.

    Tri Ta and Andy Quach will win.

  5. Snake Eater 4 Life says:

    I hope one day the city hall meeting having all Vietnamese Mayor, Council persons and City Manager. Then gambling will be legalized in Westminster. Pan 9 seats open!

  6. Jung Kim says:

    Gambling is bad for our community.

  7. lottahope says:

    We gamble everytime we drive down Brookhurst between Bolsa and Mcfadden. After all Andy Quach might be driving drunk. He’s a ticking time bomb. Name ONE thing only Quach has EVER accomplished as an elected. ANYTHING! I rest my case! DUMP QUACH! DUMP QUACH! DUMP QUACH!

  8. Just had to ask! says:

    Do the people in Westminster & Garden Grove City really deserve nothing better than a drunker and a home wrecker for their councils?

  9. Reality Hurts says:

    Andy Quack is the henchmen for Van Tran. Deport them both.

  10. Jung Kim says:

    Read my lips.

    Cowards, listen carefully!

    Andy Quach is your boss in city of Westminster and he will be reelected again on this November.
    Now go do a chicken dance!

  11. Bo May and Art Pedroza = Dumber a d Dumbest! says:

    Reality? Or illusions of granduer? You stupid moron. Join Bo May and Att Pedroza. The two bozos in Santa Ana can use your help in the moron department. Ha ha ha!!

    Andy Quach will be the top vote getter. You morons will be pulling what’s left of your hair out. Ha ha ha!!!

  12. Bo May and Art Pedroza = Dumber a d Dumbest! says:

    The Trannies control Westminster and there’s not a rat’s dropping that any of you can do Jack about it. Ask Fat face Janet Nguyen to find out how she learned her hard lessons in Westminster. What a dumb ass.

  13. Reality Hurts says:

    Trannies control Westminster? hahahaha they control nothing. They lost so many Viet voters its embarassing for them.

  14. !!! says:

    The Trannies don’t want to face reality yet ……… they want to wait until November. Keep on dreaming!

  15. Jung Kim says:

    The reality is Andy Quach and Tri Ta are your city leaders!

    Anymore questions?

  16. Jung Kim says:

    Reality hurts is when joe mama gets bruised by my BIG dog.

    Loretta = Fried.

  17. Bo May says:

    Gambling is bad for any community.
    Drinking is bad for the community.
    Insurance fraud is bad for the community.
    Loud protest is bad for the community.
    Prostitution is bad for the community.
    Viets in little saigon are notorious for that.

    Andy Quach, Tyler Diep, and Van tran are associating or directly involve in those activities. Still think they are viet proud leaders, no?

  18. !!! says:

    Sorry Jung Kim, Andy is your loser… oops! I mean leader. Thank God that we don’t live in Westminster!

  19. Jung Kim says:

    Bo May, joe mama getting pregnant by my BIG dog is bad. No?

  20. Jung Kim says:

    Loretta supports killing innocent babies = BAD

    Loretta bankrupting this country = BAD

    Loretta wants to dismantle families = BAD

    Loretta supports Mexico government = BAD

    Loretta’s friends ; Bell city people and Maxine Waters = BAD

    Loretta = BAD

  21. Jung Kim says:

    Assemblyman Van Tran protects lives of innocent babies = Good

    Assemblyman Van Tran supports strong family, education, work ethics = Good

    Assemblyman Van Tran = Good leader.

    Go Viets!

  22. Pound Owner says:

    Bo May the dog,

    You sounded like a broken record talking out of your stinking ass. You are stupid, self loathing, and a Loretta Sanche. She’s going to get booted from Congress this November. You can take her in your hut. Loser.

  23. Trannie Rule says:

    Reality what?

    You are another stupid Viet Hater. The Trannies have ruled Little Saigon for years. You sounded very very jealous ofthe Trannies’s power and influence. They run the whole show.

    Do you know that Janet Nguyen was a Trannie? They got no rivals. Lots of jealous wannabes but all losers. You know it.

  24. Trannie Rule says:

    !!! Why wait until November? The Trannies have been running Little Saigon for years now. Just look around. Liberal Democrats are losing big. The Trannies will win big in November. They’ll continue to run the Viet community. It’s a done deal.

  25. Bo May says:

    The truth hurts, yes?

  26. Truth Teller says:

    Hey Bo May,

    The truth hurt you so good. Yes! You feel the pain huh!?

  27. Jung Kim says:

    Bo May, my BIG dog hurts already bruised joe mama. No?

  28. Trannie Rule says:

    Trannies kicked some liberal Democrat asses. The Vietnamese community is a conservative Republican community. No denying. No dispute.

  29. Just Asking ! says:

    Tran would rule if he could lose all of his drunker, home wrecker, corruption & fraud.

  30. Bo May says:

    Reckoning days for little saigon is near when all corrupted viets got kicked.
    That is the truth and it hurts kimmie, extremely.

  31. Bo May says:

    Gambling is bad for any community.
    Drinking is bad for the community.
    Insurance fraud is bad for the community.
    Loud protest is bad for the community.
    Prostitution is bad for the community.
    Viets in little saigon are notorious for that.

    And…that is the truth. Just ask the Bolsavik, I ain’t making it up.

  32. Trannie Rule says:

    Bo May = Just Asking!

    I asked the liberal leftist Bolsavik and even he agreed that Little Saigon is ruled by the Trannies who are all Republicans. It’s been like that for years. Even Cormer student Yrannie Janet Nguyen agreed. Now that’s the truth.

  33. Trannie Rule says:

    Bo May = Just Asking!

    I asked the liberal leftist Bolsavik and even he agreed that Little Saigon is ruled by the Trannies who are all Republicans. It’s been like that for years. Even former student Trannie Janet Nguyen agreed. Now that’s the truth.

  34. Trannie Rule says:

    Hey Bo May,

    I like your list of activities in Little Saigon. It happens everyday in Little Saigon. Been like that for gets and will continue to be. That’s real life man. Have you been living under your mom’s armpit? The Trannies run Little Saigon. Live with it …. or live alone in the South Pole.

  35. lottahope says:

    Trannie Rules, the Viet politicos are nothing but cheap whores. If this county was democratic majority , so would these whores be. Conservative republicans you say, what bullshit. What do you call 10 trannies at the bottom of the sea? A damn good start!!!

  36. lottahope says:

    I am quite sure Van Tran and company are very very jealous of what was pulled off in Bell. However, Andy Quach’s take aint much smaller, factoring all his extortionate collections, pimp monies and shady real estate deals and drug dealing monies being kicked up.

  37. Bo May says:

    Trannie:
    I admire your bluntness. Finally, yes, at least you agree with me that’s the way it is in little saigon town.
    So….if the trannies are leaders of this cursed town then just be it.
    Just don’t like their supporters bragging about this area as a great town where all viets politicos are great leaders, blah, blah, blah…so on and so forth.
    Anyway, could you also agree with me that little saigon is not too much different from ho chi minh city back home? You guys might as well call it ‘little ho chi minh’ and be done with it. The trannies are just another name for ‘can bo’ and ‘party members’, yes?

    So…is the sayin’: you can take them viets out of the commies but you can’t take the commies out of them, yes?

  38. Jung Kim says:

    lottapoop, any inside scoops regarding city of Bell? ….ask Loretta they are all Loretta followers.

    Bell City = Loretta’s Dem. siblings

    Maxine Walters = Loretta’s best Dem. friend.

    Loretta = In hiding.

    Loretta = BAD

  39. Little Saigon Lover says:

    You need to know this Bo May. Little Saigon is part of America, and in America, you have Bernie Madoff as well as Bill Gates who already donated half of his fortune to charity.

    Little Saigon is a mix bag like everywhere else in this country. There’s nothing unusual about that. Don’t try to be overly critical and sensitive about this community. It’s no different than any other community.

    Fact still remains that the Trannies are a dominant political force in the Vietnamese communty for years. You know it and other people don’t deny it.

  40. !!! says:

    Lover, you’re only part right if you’re trying to compare the Trannies with Bernie Mafoff. The Trannies are only good at taking money from the small businesses and how do they have the power to do that is because the people gave it to them and without their titles they just a bunch of small time crooks.

  41. Bo May says:

    To LS Lover;
    So what you are saying is, it is OK to be a crooked politician because in another part of America, there is this Bernie took money from the investor in America?
    1. Bernie is in jail now.
    2. Other crooked politicians in America were in jail, too, one time or another.
    3. Real commies in Viet Nam do not go to jail and they are a dominant political force in that curse country.
    4. The tranies are the dominant political force in the little saigon, yes, but how long? Will they be there for long like the commies in viet nam? Or they will eventually get voted out ’cause people are sick and tire of them? Yes?

  42. lottahope says:

    No self respecting person would EVER vote for Andy Quach for amything. To brag that Andy Quach owns Westminster…this must be one of his homies. What does a tranie have to do to fall out of favor with their “followers”? What a shame my beloved country has to be denigrated by these bums. Jung Kim will have no point and lose all face come November. Good riddance to Van Tran. Maybe Andy Quach will be able to continue his purposeless degenerate ways. That says nothing good about Viets in Westminster. Hold your sorrowful heads high Quackheads.

  43. lottahope says:

    For as long as A Quack and T Diep are on the Westminster City Council the expression “Viet Pride” is just an oxymoron.

  44. Sub-contractor says:

    Do you want to know who’s also a crook, Richie who’s working under the name of BOLSA BUILDER. He’s currently advertise in Nguoi Viet’s rao vat with a fake & expired license. He is ripping off his sub-contractor so be please do not become a victim by doing any business with this guy.

  45. Bo May says:

    Thanks sub:
    There is a culture of greed and deceit in this little town called little saigon.
    A culture has been nurtured and encouraged by their own viet politicians dirty activities.
    Kimmie, do you understand now, yes?

  46. Little Saigon Lover says:

    I love Little Saigon and I am proud to be a Vietnamese. The community has progressed a long way. Nobody says that this community or it’s leaders are perfect. Which community is perfect?

    Bo May posts many anti-Viet sentiments while ignoring wholsesale the real problems of other communities. This singling out against the Vietnamese community is also known as racism and prejudice.

  47. Little Saigon Lover says:

    For a blog name like “lottahope”, your posts are all negative and ugly. Either lottahope is a hypocrite or he is a liar. His posts give readers no hope.

  48. Bo May says:

    I can go on talking about The Little Italy in New York which has the gangster owning the town in the 40′s, the Boston’s Irish thugs and dirty cops, dirty politicians in the 60′s and 70′s, Harlem’s black thugs, etc.
    But why do I talk about the little saigon thugs and its culture of greed and deceit? On this ‘all viet all the time’ blog?
    I hope you know why.

  49. lottahope says:

    Little Saigon Lover. I got news for you. there are’nt many positive posts on this site. To cry racism and predjudice. Is that an excuse for voting for the likes of Quack and Diep? Voting for them to stay along ethnic lines is sorrowful and stupid. If you will only vote along ethnic lines at least build on stone rather than straw. You keep backing losers and can not claim ignorance. Comprende? Do you enjoy the posts of sexual degenerate sicko Jung (“dung”) Kim?

  50. Little Saigon Lover says:

    Lottahope,

    You got no news for me, nothing that anybody haven’t already known.

    You have NO hope and you like to bash on the Viets, jut like your buddy Bo May. Your posts are extremely racist in nature. You single out one race over the other, just like Bo May.

    Dis somebody already called you and Bo May Viet haters?
