I'm usually happy to see my home town featured on the front page of HN, but not this time. The scandal with the mayor's office throughout his tenure has been a terrible distraction and media circus.

Why hasn't the people rallied to boot this guy out of office? Crappy politicians are the norm but, come on, this guy is an all time low!

As I understand it, there's no law or rule that would allow for his removal short of being convicted of a crime and jailed.

The city council is trying to put forth motions to hasten his exit from office[1].
