TexasTiger 14,575 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 After getting caught on tape spewing racist hate speech, there really was only one move left to make for former Democratic City Councilwoman Nury Martinez — find a home in Arizona and reputedly become a Republican. Not that long ago, Martinez, 50, was a rising star in local politics, the first Latina to become Council president. But, of course, she resigned in disgracein 2022, after she and three other city leaders were secretly tape-recorded during a closed-door City Hall session bashing L.A. District Attorney George Gascón (“**** that guy — he’s with the Blacks”) and hurling bigoted slurs at former Council colleague Mike Bonin’s adopted African American son (calling him a “changuito,” Spanish for “little monkey”). Now, according to several sources with knowledge of the ongoing investigation into the secret City Hall taping, Martinez has a new mailing address. She and her husband, Gerry Guzman (onetime manager for Alex Villanueva’s failed reelection campaign as L.A. County sheriff), have set up camp in Arizona. The couple’s new residence isn’t the only thing that’s changed, though — so, apparently, have their politics. “Nury is now a Republican,” one source who knows Martinez and Guzman tells Los Angeles magazine. “It should be surprising, considering where she came from. But not so much.” https://lamag.com/politics/nury-martinez-city-council-arizona-republican 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj3jordan 2,172 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 I guess so with a dem governor, one dem senator and another Ind/dem sen. State went for Biden. So yeah a solid true dem racist would expect to be welcomed there. The only questionable part is the party switch. She won’t be welcome in the rep party. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely she will as long as she keeps her racism aimed at Black people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
