L’amour Shoppe in Hayward.

ELECTION ’12//HAYWARD | Two weeks ago, Hayashi’s rudimentary campaign Web site included her committee’s mailing address of 22561 Main St., Suite 200 in Hayward. Coincidentally, that is also the address of Armas Consulting, the influential Hayward firm headed by disgraced school board member Jesus Armas.

The address is also connected to the city’s chamber of commerce (everything in Hayward seems connected in some unholy manner or another, it seems) and lies adjacent to the L’amour Shoppe, Hayward’s best location for procuring fuzzy handcuffs, dildos and scented lubes.

Hayashi’s campaign consultant, Mark Capitolo, dismissed the connection between the committee’s address, Armas and the sex shop on Main Street. “I don’t want to talk about where she picks up her mail,” he said last week.

However earlier this week, the mailing address was changed to a P.O Box in Castro Valley.
