Given that the information about Chu came to light after early voting and before electin day, there should be a legitimate method to challenge the vote based on the circumstances.
Elected Representatives should be held to highest standards of conduct, period. I can't believe that the Elections Act doesn't contain provisions for ethical standards. I still can't believe that someone like Kevin Johnson could still have his name on the ballot.
The timing of the news about Chu is all a little suspect to me. My belief is that police and judges are all compromised to some degree. Any time there is an investigation into police or lawyers they should be done by a separate jurisdiction to maximize impartiality.
