"In the final weeks before the election, the race has grown hostile, and Ms. Steel has taken the unexpected tack of insisting that she is more attuned to Vietnamese Americans as a first-generation Korean American whose parents fled Communist-run North Korea."
"Mr. Tran, a consumer rights lawyer, has leaned heavily on his Vietnamese roots. His main campaign sign echoes the yellow and red-striped flag of South Vietnam intended to remind voters that the candidate with one of the most common Vietnamese surnames is one of their own."
"Mr. Tran took particular umbrage at Ms. Steel's claim to Vietnamese authenticity. She comes into our community and she tells us, I know what it's like to be an immigrant like you all,' Mr. Tran said. No, you do not. You did not lose your country."
