Carson minister targets Latino judges to make way for Filipinos - Los Angeles

The man behind a write-in campaign for six Los Angeles Superior Court seats said Thursday that he targeted Latino judges because they would be easier to defeat, especially if he is successful at recruiting Filipino challengers.

“When you’re running against a Caucasian, it’s kind of hard,” the Rev. Ronald C. Tan of Carson said. “As Filipinos, our names are almost the same as Hispanics, so that puts us on co-equal ground.”"*
