Little Saigon Inside

The rumor in Little Saigon right now is the newly elected Mayor Tri Ta  will appoint Tyler Diep to replace the seat vacated by the form councilmember Frank Fry.  Tyler Diep lost his re-election bid this month after serving 4 years.   It was an embarrasing loss considering that he had $130K to spend and also was an incumbent.

 If the rumor is true,  Tri Ta shows that he is loyal to Van Tran and his aide than to Margaret Rice.   Of course, it was Margarat Rice and her support and endorsement that got him elected mayor.
