Westminster mayor and councilman accuse backers of recall campaign of 'bait and switch' tactics
Addressing supporters of a recall campaign, Westminster Mayor Tri Ta called on his opponents this week to “play fair” and denounced what he sees as “bait and switch” tactics used to gather signatures to remove him from office.
“It is sad to see what’s going on in our community right now,” Tran said at the news conference, adding that the “desperate power play by a few disgruntled opponents” cause shame and concern among his clients who respect citizens’ “rights to launch a recall.” “They try to be very convincing because they have a very big sign about rent control,” she added, noting that people “are asked to sign so the collector can get their money.”
