Audio released of GOP challenger at DUI stop
Audio has been released of an August DUI stop during which Republican congressional candidate Van Tran (Calif.) attempted to interfere with a field sobriety test involving his political protege.

Tran, who is challenging Rep. Loretta Sanchez (D-Calif.) next year, previously disputed the characterization of the events as interference.

"In attempting to get more information, the on-duty officer asked me to step back," Tran wrote in an August statement."With respect, I disagree with the claim that my attempting to talk with the sergeant and asking him a simple question was 'interfering' in any way."

Audio records of the incident were sent by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee via YouTube. Police previously released a transcript of the incident.

Westminster City Councilman Andy Quach crashed his car into an electric pole on Aug. 2, cutting power to 300 homes.

4. and then you woke up
and realized that in fact, you can't read at all.

And you've been under a rock for the last 4 months which is why you wrote something so insensitive and cruel.

Or else, being a kkkonservative, this is the kind of thing you call "fun".

Right.

psst......YOU LOST! GET OVER IT!
