Tauri Bigknife, the attorney general for the Viejas Band of Kumeyaay Indians, clarified their support for Assemblyman Evan Low by stating, "It's not payback. It's not buying a vote. It's none of those things. There's no there, there, OK? It's supporting someone that we've had a longstanding relationship with." This emphasizes the importance of historical ties rather than transactional politics in their endorsement.
A spokesman for Assemblyman Evan Low defended his voting decision on a controversial bill regarding casino tribes, asserting, "the tribe acted on its own and Low voted in the best interest of his district and the state." This indicates that the actions taken were both independent of undue influence and aligned with constituency interests.
