Costa Mesa is a small town in Orange County that has gathered national headlines for its extreme response to financial difficulties; Bachmann is a national political figure who gathers headlines nearly every time she opens her mouth.
For Costa Mesa, Talon conducted a second investigation of the suicide of a city employee. For Bachmann, the company will provide lead security over the coming months while she's on the campaign trail, according to Politico.
