Silicon Valley Congressional Race Grapples With Integrity
Congressman Ro Khanna faces a challenge this year from tech founder Ethan Agarwa. Questions about leadership and business integrity arise as the media and public try and understand matters around the challenger's past business practices, financial obligations, and legal accountability.
“One or two lawsuits can be unfortunate circumstances. Three begins to look like a pattern and patterns are exactly what voters should be paying attention to,” Hurt said. “Does a candidate’s history of honoring or not honoring financial and legal obligations tell us something meaningful about how they would handle public trust and taxpayer resources?”
