Hadjinian, speaking to the San Gabriel Valley News, attributed his win

efforts by other candidates.
"I ran a positive campaign, and I never wanted to resort to the
negative or mudslinging stuff," Hadjinian told the SGVN.

community and a homegrown community leader here in Montebello," said

According to the SGVN, Hadjinian also raised the most money, collecting
$47,735 in contributions.
"The city needs to control its spending," Hadjinian told the

sustain its spending."

served on the Montebello Civil Service Commission as well as the
City of Montebello's Investment Committee and the Montebello Police
Department's Public Safety Committee.
