We have an upcoming race for city council in San Jose, and one of the candidates, Hon Lien, is perhaps the worst GOP candidate our city has ever seen.

Some state and local government employees (iclunding myself) are required, under California law, to disclose any real estate, stock or other financial interests that may present a potential conflict of interest. I'm sure many emplyees might forget a few shares of stock, or if a spouse's parent company may do business in a given locale. But $6 million?
