Update On Dina Nguyen Campaign Report

Posted by: Jubal | 03/27/2008 12:32 PM

I called Dina Nguyen campaign factotum Truong Diep to find out what the deal was with this over-reporting of a campaign contribution.

According to Truong, it's a simple reporting error. The Dalat Supermarket contribution of $1,000 was reported as $1,600, and a $1,600 contribution (Truong thought it was from Travelodge Westminster HB) was under-reported as $1,000.

In other words, it was a transposition, but the total contributions amount is the same.

I was told Dina's campaign is hiring a professional campaign treasurer -- smart move, and something that should have been in place at the get-go.

So, this is another hiccup, or the beginning of something more?  Stay tuned and we'll find out.

UPDATE: Peggy Lowe reports Lysa Ray will take over treasurer responsibilities for the Dina Nguyen campaign.

Hopefully, being a professional, her 0s won't look like 6s.

Do not slander said:

Anonymous,

Empty accusations and rants get you no where. You sounded very much like Janet Nguyen when she's frustrated.

Janet Nguyen is scared to death with this upcoming election and t's written on her face and yelling with her action. Don't perpetuate this paranoia on the blog. If you are going to lose, at least do so with some dignity, Janet NGuyen.

the TRANNIES need to get out of town and make room for more honest politcians. We need to support those that want to make this community not make a name for themselves. We need real leaders.

Arthur Tran said:

You want to serve the people? you want to serve this community? You want to serve this country? JOIN the SERVICE... any branch. That's a true public servant. All of you TRANNIES are just power hungry. What has Dina done for the people in this community? Besides showing up at events and making sure that her face is in every photos just like all of you? Where do u find the time to work?Janet brother is IN THE MILITARY, serving, protecting and defending this country so you TRANNIES can enjoy the FREEDOM and DEOMOCRACY... DO NOT ABUSE IT. DINA IS NOT SUPERVIORIAL MATERIAL. LEAVE THE REAL JOB FOR REAL MEN AND WOMEN...

cra republican said:

Arthur Tran, hold your horses! "........Janet brother is in military.....serving, defending this country.." I am sure he is a good material to get my respect and it was one of the reason why I voted for ex service man Andy Quach.....

I might vote for Janet's brother but not for the loser and incompetent Janet!

Why doesn't Janet ask her brother to run for Supe.?

Anti Trannies 2,

We are getting tired of your blogs. You attack with out any facts or logic. You sounded like a loser and a whiner on behalf of Janet Nguyen. You are frustrated because Dina is make huge progress in the District and you are afraid. It is clearly evident in your post.

Janet Nguyen has so many political enemies because she betrayed those who helped her. The people are speaking up and seeing the real Janet.

Get over it and get with the program. Going through life like this will only bring Janet more trouble and problems, as she is facing now.

Anti Trannies Anti Dina said:

You Trannies are NOT in it for the community or for the betterment of this community, city or county. All of you are self serving and people in this community are well aware of that. Judgement day is not too far, you Trannies will have to face reality.

Dina Rules said:

Anti Blah Blah Blah,

The community knows that Janet Nguyen is a self serving and selfish political hack. You are just jealous and frustrated that Team Dina is dominating the news and winning over voters. If you are not Janet, then keep your distance or you might get one too if you displeases her.

NO ONE IS JEALOUS OF YOU TRANNIES. DOMINATING THE NEWS WITH WHAT? YOUR PAID WRITERS SPINNING NOTHING INTO SOMETHING? PLEASE!!! GET REAL

Doina Rules said:

Here we go. The nuts and fruits are out, with Janet's brand. The losers are out for Janet in desssssperation, in capital letters. Give it up Janet. Nobody's taking you seriously when you are writing nonsense, in caps. What a joke you are!

Arthur Tran said:

I grew up in this town and used to love and proud of Little Saigon but becuase of people like VAN TRAN and his folowers I am so sick of this town now. I dont' even dine there eventhough I love Pho, I drive 20 min. down to HB just for a bowl of Pho by the pier now. You boys really need to learn to get along with people if you can't, get out to the desert, buy yourself a piece of land and build your own Little Saigon and run it however you like!!! Get the hell out of here. No matter how hard all of you boys attack her, janet would still be around, so get over it or get out!!!

Arthur Tran said:

by the way DINA IS NOT GETTING any support from us!!! She's not even smart enough not to mess around with a guy like A Quach what make you think that she'll be smart enough to lead this district???

Whiner said:

Arthur,

You should know that as long as Janet Nguyen behaves the way she is now, she will continue to bring problems and trouble for herself. Don't blame it on Team Tran or anyone else for her misbehavior.

We have an open political system in this country, in case you have not known. If Janet Nguyen acted like "which that rhymes with an itch", then her opponents will continue to give her problems every step of the way. She only has herself to blame. Her dumb advisors and sycophants make things worse for her.

You are a biased Janet supporter who cannot articulate a reasonable argument. You just like to attack and whine. Dina Nguyen does not need this kind of support. Take your PHO and your whining out of LS and into HB, maybe right into the Pacific Ocean .... for all that people give a hoot. Who gives a *&%$! about your whining problem.

anonymous said:

So I hear that Dina and Andy are "linked." If the rumors are true does that make Dina a "Tranny." Will she be able to make decisions independent of the "Trannies" or is she just a pretty faced pawn in the "Trannies" game of Chess.

With regards to the comment regarding Janet's brother serving the military- that is irrelevant b/c did Janet serve- NO.

New and upcoming candidate HOA VAN TRAN is truly ideal and more than qualified to be OC's next supervisor. From what I've heard, HVT served our COUNTRY when he served in IRAQ- now he truly is a war hero...In my mind if he's good enough to serve our COUNTRY- HE IS DEFINATELY qualified and capable of serving our COUNTY.

Community Activist said:

dina has been a Trannies from day one. If it werent' for them she wouldn't get elected her first try to council. She is definitely linked to Quach. Dina is also a PAWN put up by the Trannies, we see right through that, Dina is just wasting our money for this campaign so that Van Tran could get even with Janet. I agreed with you on one point, HOA TRAN served our country and served us well, he would definitely qualified for the position... so it's between Janet and Hoa as I see it. Even if the Trannies could buy Dina the Endorsements from OC Republican Central Committee, they can't buy her the respect that she needs from our community

antidina said:

Dina is incompetent all the way. Jubal, why don't you check your sources before deleting an honest blog? Did anyone check on how Dina messed up with other people's money as a former treasurer? Stop wasting our money and time Dina!!
