The Chawla said multiple campaign road signs were vandalized with racial epithets in two separate incidents. The candidate for City Council District 1 posted images of the campaign signs on her social media accounts, and said she became aware of the issue when a person who had a sign on his property went to check the sign because of the high winds over the weekend, and he contacted her after seeing the vandalism.
"I was at those signs to the east and west of Elkhorn just last week to fix them and those words were not present at that time," Chawla said. "This must have happened Friday or Saturday. I also removed 4 other signs at various locations just yesterday that were nearly blown away by the wind and none of those signs had these words."
"This kind of hatred has no place in District 1, Sacramento, or anywhere else," said Chawla in a press release. "Whoever did this wanted to intimidate me and silence our campaign. It will not work. If anything, it strengthens my resolve. Our community deserves leaders who will stand up against hate, and I will always be one of them."
Chawla, a former FBI specialist, is running against incumbent Lisa Kaplan and businessman Venkat Mechineni for the District 1 seat, which represents most of North Natomas and parts of Robla.
