More than 110 people submitted applications to join Huntington Beach City Council following the resignation of former Mayor Pro Tem Tito Ortiz.

“I was stunned when we had 110 applications ... I find it almost hard to believe,” Councilman Mike Posey told The Epoch Times on June 16. “I did not envision that we would have 110 applicants. I figured 20 because there’s typically 12 to 15 people that actually run.”
