The guy who is in charge of the Board of Contractors is a felon who went to jail for racketeering

Why was Larry Bankston not disbarred for a conviction of felony racketeering?

JBE is an absolute hack who is well on his way to being a one term governor.

Yup. There was a thread earlier this week, so this must be a spin-off.
Original winner bid like $65MM
2nd place bid something like $85MM
Bankston's son's boss's firm bid $150MM
Bankston decided that the companies in charge of managing the money needed both commercial and residential contractors licenses

I need more information.
Is this factual?
It seems to me that this is a non-story. The son works for a completely different subsidiary of the parent company.

That's how our state govt has operated since April 30, 1812. Unfortunately, regardless of who we elect, I don't foresee any changes.

He was disbarred, but the LA Supreme Court decided to reverse that decision right before Bankston wanted to get back into politics

I thought at first, from this thread, his son won the contract. It appears he did not reward his son.
Still, ridiculous a felon convicted of bribery and racketeering is the LEGAL COUNSEL to this shite.

100% chance that contractor ends up with the winning bid.
100% chance that former state senator's son gets elected to office in LA.
100% chance someone in LA office goes to jail.

The son is a GM of a company owned by the two guys who own the third place company. I'd say that's a problem
