Palmdale Councilwoman Alercon is already replacing the hand picked attorney working for the Mayor of Lancaster. I mean you cannot get any closer to the inner workings of Palmdale and now he went and quit! What kind of lackey is she been appointing anyway?
James says
I wish I could apply but I don’t live in district 5

Does it matter? Alacarn didn’t live in her district. She carpetbagged. Rex lives in Laguna and he’s mayor of Lancaster.
Mike says
Why don’t you apply then and do something about the perceived malfeasance you claim exists? Perfect opportunity to put your money wheee your whiney mouth is. No? I didn’t think so.
