Put it on the Tab

While Meg Whitman was running for the Governor of California,  a Latino maid scandal erupted. Whitman had an illegal immigrant working in her household as a maid, and let her go when she figured out she didn't have her papers. The illegal immigrant wanted money for unpaid wages so she took it to court.

Whitman has denounced the allegations as a "baseless smear attack" by Democratic challenger Jerry Brown and the unions who supported his campaign. Still, her campaign began to lose public support after the status of Diaz Santillan was revealed.

Even if this was brought up by Jerry Brown and the unions who supported him, I feel that it is totally okay. Whitman tried to throw Brown under the bus for the longest time and obviously, failed. This situation made Whitman less popular and lost the vote of most of the Latino population. Nicky Diaz Santillan, the illegal immigrant, was subjected to 5,500 dollars for unpaid wages. This amount of money was probably nothing compared to the amount of money she paid to lose an election.
