Did John Liu Really Want to Endorse Yen Chou? You Decide?

John Liu and City Councilman Charles Barron at a Recent Rally for Comptroller



Yes it happened John Liu held his nose and did what people had been pressuring him to do since September 15th, the unthinkable he endorsed Yen Chou. But is he really supporting Yen Chou. Let’s look at the history and the facts and you decide.

Yen Chou in June of this year announces her support for David Weprin over John Liu in the race for Comptroller. Her announcement and comments were published on June 4th in Sing Tao Daily and the World Journal. Yen takes a few calculated shots at John Liu and opposes him in the vote for the Queens Democratic Organization nod for Comptroller.

Once John Liu becomes the choice of the Democratic Organization… does Yen Chou support him? No! She goes on to support and carry petitions for Weprin and herself against the Party.

Chou and her few supporters continue to bash John Liu in hopes of advancing Weprin.

On September 15th John Liu makes the runoff and Yen Chou narrowly escapes with a win in the Primary.

From the 15th on Yen Chou is doing all she can to get the now coveted endorsement of John Liu and Liu delays, the runoff comes and goes and Liu is the winner, our next Comptroller. Day by Day Democrats cross party lines to support Republican Peter Koo, some of John Liu’s inside power players are seen in open meetings in the Flushing Mall food mart and at the Sheraton. Koo’s campaign gains momentum. John Liu comes out and makes an endorsement for City Council yet it was not for Yen Chou it was for Kevin Kim a smack in the face for Yen Chou. Peter Tu a Liu loyalist becomes a campaign manager for Peter Koo to work on Chinese vote for Election Day.

Still no Endorsement, The Democratic Organization calls and pushes John until he plays Loyal to his party publically and he endorses Yen Chou. The next day a group of campaign strategist loyal to Liu are told to work and help Koo.

So Now one Candidate has the public endorsement and the other has the Campaign team sounds like John Liu has split loyalties. You Decide!!!

We at Save Flushing Queens feel John Liu would prefer the more experienced Peter Koo in his old Council Seat.

  1. I Voted for John Liu and I am proud of John Liu but just because he endorsed Yen Chou does not mean I will vote for her. She has made our community look like a crap hole with the Posters over all the public places. I will vote for SJ as a protest Vote.

  2. I have decided Yes John Liu endorsed Yen Chou. John is a loyal Democrat. I am undecided who to Vote for. I like Koo I know him for years and I just got to know Yen Chou she is the Democrat I may just flip a quater. One thing is for sure this race is very close.

  4. I have to think about it. Yen Chou seems that she doesn't understand issues in our community very well. At least Koo's got lots of experience. I think so. I hear lot of my democrat friends are going for Koo.

  9. Chou moved to Flushing from Bayside last Dec. You are right in assuming she is clueless about Flushing.

  12. Yen Chou is unbelievalble. She never voted since she registered to vote in 1999. She only voted once from 1999 till this year 2009, for herself only. Amazing!!!
