Jordan Brandman served as the Anaheim City Councilman in the past

Jordan Brandman held many political positions over the years. Brandman served at the Michael Brandman Associates as the director of government and community relations and the Orange County Clerk-Recoorder as the director of external relations.

He then joined as the district office director for the California State Assembly Majority Leader Ian Calderon.

Starting in 2019, he served as a member of the Anaheim City Council and resigned in 2021. He said in the resignation letter:

"There are periods in our lives when we are faced with competing career and personal priorities. For that reason I have decided it is in the best interest of me and my family to focus on them at this time."

Jordan Brandman was also involved in some controversies over the years. A report by The Los Angeles Times revealed that Anaheim officials covered up his behavior where he commented that he wanted to shoot everyone at the City Hall. He reportedly spoke about it to an anonymous person.

The outlet stated that the comment resulted from a weird behavior leading from a citywide investigation of reported racist and misogynistic comments. They also said that the police officers were once sent to Jordan Brandman's house, which was kept a secret from everyone.
