Water drama

Do you vote based on name recognition?

Well, Water Replinishment District of Southern California candidate Linda Fuentes, whose maiden name is Unruh wants her name to appear on the ballot as Linda Unruh-Fuentes. She is married to Chuck Fuentes, Pico Rivera’s city manager.

But according to reporter Mike Sprague’s story:

“That makes her opponent, Albert Robles, unhappy. He can’t change his name to escape the stigma of the same-named former South Gate city treasurer who was sentenced to 10 years in state prison on corruption charges.”
