Filipino / White Supremacist Effort Against Hispanic L.A. Judges Abandoned

Think politics make strange bedfellows? A bizarre effort that linked up a white supremacist judicial candidate and a Filipino Pastor that targeted Hispanic judges in L.A. has ended.
The effort spear headed by Judge candidate Bill Johnson and Filipino Pastor failed to get the signatures necessary nomination papers to qualify write-in candidates. No judge in L.A. has been lost to a write-in.
Johnson recently lost the endorsement of Ron Paul after his involvement in an effort to limit U.S. Citizenship to Whites was revealed.
According to MetNews, the Rev. Ronald C. Tan of Carson "had said he targeted Hispanic judges because they would be easier to defeat if he could successfully recruit Filipino challengers."
The targeted Superior Court Judges Daniel P. Ramirez, Juan Carlos Dominguez, Michael Villalobos, Hector M. Guzman, Daniel S. Lopez and Jose Sandoval will stay on the ballot.
