State Senator Lou Correa, at the grand opening of Lee’s Sandwiches, in Santa Ana In 2006, Lucille Kring couldn’t beat Jon Aiken – how will she beat State Senator Lou Correa? UPDATE: Matt Cuningham has posted an article over at Red County wherein he slams us and says that Jon Aiken is developmentally disabled. I have been a friend of Jon’s for over twenty years.
