Reaching Out

The recall process is chugging along. The prosecutor’s office is working on their part and we are waiting on a court date for the sufficiency hearing. At the hearing, a judge will decide whether or not the complaint establishes legal grounds for a recall.

But the recall is not all we’re doing to try to save our city. We’ve recently discovered that Mayor Sun has family in the area and out of state. We’ve been discussing the possibility of contacting them to see if they could offer some insight into what makes Cy tick, so to speak. Perhaps they could help us reason with him or help persuade him to resign in his own interests as well as those of the city. 

As a first step on that path, we have sent a Facebook message to one of Cy’s daughters. There’s no way to know if this effort will be productive. We will not be nagging her for a response. This is just another way of pursuing the goal of dislodging the Mayor from his office. In the long run, we hope he will see that his resignation is the most honorable solution to this problem. Mayor Sun’s departure via resignation is certainly a better way for him to preserve his honor than being fired for just cause via a recall election.

We’ll let you know if Cy’s daughter responds to our inquiry.
