Nam Pham, a longshot candidate for Ward 6 on the Santa Ana City Council, got busted today by the OC Weekly’s Gustavo Arellano, who found a Pham campaign ad in a Vietnamese newspaper. Someone translated the ad for Arellano, who reported that Pham claimed in the ad that among his supporters are white voters who are helping him specifically because they don’t want a Mexican to win the seat.
The forum in question was the Com Link forum, which we reported about here at the New Santa Ana blog. Pham was actually awful at that debate. The best performer that night was mayoral challenger Charles Hart, although it should be noted that Santa Ana Mayor Miguel Pulido answered his questions very candidly and he did so smoothly.

According to Arellano, Pham went on to claim that these mysterious gabachos “guided and helped me a lot, including printing flyers and helping distribute to every home. They often give me encouragement.”

“Santa Ana Council candidate Nam Pham says his white supporters are opposed to Mexicans”…… Hmmmm
I am white, I am his supporter, and I oppose Mexicans!
So what is wrong with that Pedroza?… Hum?
If we whites and Vietnamese would not oppose Mexicans then there would be only Mexicans in Santa Ana and then the Mexicans would oppose each other, cutting off the heads to each other as they do in Mexico now.
You need civilized race to keep you from killing each other to an extinction as Mayas did.
You and Arellano must grow up!….. so relax and gave yourselves about 5000 years to fully evolve Pedroza.
Nam Pham claimed to be indigent when he filed his papers to run and asked that the taxpayers to pay for his ballot statement. If that is the case how can he suddenly afford to buy newspaper ads and campaign signs? This guy is a scam artist.
Sean,
I wonder if the Van Tran machine is all in with Pham?
I hope Mr. Pham wins this election for ward 6th. It is time to embrace DIVERSITY, and end the RACISM in our City of Santa Ana.
