Speaking of Recalls Who Started the Janice Hahn Recall?


LA Weekly piece by the great Patrick Range McDonald asks the very good question, "Who's Behind Janice Hahn Recall Effort."

Unlike the recall of Mayor Villaraigosa where blogger Phil Jennerjahn was a more than willing spokesman, the Hahn effort has remained somewhat of a mystery.

When the recall was announced in May, it appeared a bright constellation of South Bay political activists and organizations had jumped on board.

But while a significant portion of community leaders in Hahn's district would love to see her go, many who have been associated with the effort say they are supportive but not involved.  At least three different Recall Hahn websites have been launched but again, no one knows who is in charge.

So that leads to today's conspiracy theory.  Internet astroturf is abuzz these days in political campaigns.  Do you think a phony recall effort could have been started by opponents to Hahn's run for the Democratic nomination for Lt. Governor as an effort to embarrass her?

Whether you like it or not!

Cut and Paste Brief on a possible "Recall Hahn Campaign" in CD 15

"Are the CD 15 masses growing weary of their Councilwoman?"

At the risk of overexposing CD 15, we bring you more on the race pandering, parcel tax loving, gang member embracing and the "official blond" of 200 Spring Street, City Councilwoman Janice Hahn.
With her pandering quest to become the Lt. Governor of the Golden State nearing its judgment day on June 8, some in CD 15 are dreading the strong possibility that Councilwoman Hahn will be around for her full term and with that thought in mind, are mulling possible options.
Consider this comment that we chance upon and linked to in Thursday's "Cut and Paste Briefs", it seems that the CD 15 masses are ready to rebel.
Recall Janice Hahn and bring some diginity back to CD15, bring job growth back to the waterfront, bring city services back to the district, bring cops back to the Harbor Division and bring common sense and integrity back to local politics.
There is a group meeting to plan her recall now that it looks like she can not win the Lt. Governor race being down 21 pts in the latest polls to Newsom 47-26%. CD15 can not survive another 3 years of Hahn politics.
The leader of RECALL is John Papadakis (a restuarant owner and Waterfront Development Leader) with Joe Gatlin (Black Community Leader and Community Activist), Mike Lansing (Former LAUSD Board and Executive Director of the Harbor Area Boys and Girls Clubs), Joe Rich (President of Rich Development), Anthony Santich (POLA Exec and Former San Pedro Chamber President), Augie Bezmelinivich (Engineer and Croatian Community Leader), Xavier Hermisillo (Lobbyist and Latino Community Leader) and John Lauro (Businessman and Outspoken Hahn Critic). They are gathering coomunity and business support for the RECALL HAHN efforts.
Others that are interested in supporting the efforts for the HAHN RECALL are: John and Ken of Talk Radio, John Phillips (hear link for radio show below) Pacific Maritime Shipping Assoc., Independent Truckers Assoc., The LA County Republician Party, LA Tea Party leaders, LA Chamber of Commerce, and many others, the momentum is gathering. I hear June 1, for the kick off. Stay tuned. There is hope coming.
You have to hear this John Phillips Show Link: Hahn hangs up because she can not answer regrdings Nazi Germany and Boycott. John is right she "does not know what she is talking about" and she is "an idiot" and she " should not be on the LA City Council.
Gosh, to think that there are some who want to dethrone the reigning blond at 200 Spring Street, is too much to ponder in the early AM. But some may agree that simple concepts are too much for Janice to ponder at any time of the day, but I digress.
In closing, if the comments above are merited with future actions, let me go on the record and state that a "Recall Hahn" effort in CD 15, will gather more signatures within its council boundaries, than Phil Jennerduh's recall effort against Mayor Antonio Parkervillar, city wide.
Some may care to comment about that prediction.
Your thoughts..............
Scott Johnson in CD 14
** EVENING UPDATE: John Papadakis is on KFI's 640 AM Tim Conway Jr Show talking up the Recall Hahn Movement, this endeavor has serious political legs. Will link to the podcast at its earliest availability. Link to recalljanicehahn.com for details.
