Yeah, it was a conspiracy to oust the innocent, hard-working saints at LAWA. And a fairly massive conspiracy, too. After all, they managed to coerce endorsements out of:
- Twelve Chambers of Commerce
- Seventy City/Town Governments
- Twelve Newspapers
- Nine State Assemblymen/women (both Republican and Democrat)
- Three State Senators (both Republican and Democrat)
- Roughly Twenty Governmental Agencies and Business Organizations
- Four US Congressmen/women (both Republican and Democrat)
- One US Senator
- Tommy Lasorda
That's a pretty impressive feat. Or, perhaps the truth is that LAWA did a horrible job of running ONT.
