Regardless of which candidate you support or which party you belong to, one thing we all agree on is that we need to make it easier for people to vote, especially those requiring extra assistance.

When you go to the polls tomorrow, make sure you know your RIGHTS and the accommodations that the law mandates be given to you.  These voting rights were not just placed in our laps, they were fought for by leaders over many, many years.  We owe it to them and to our children to be informed.

Heading into the final GOTV push for Wendy Greuel, I want to announce a new feature on the blog: the "Picture of the Day."

To inaugurate the program, we have a picture from a recent Wendy Greuel rally I attended this weekend.

African American voters are choosing Wendy Greuel over Eric Garcetti by a two to one margin according to poll results published in the Jewish Journal.

The race for the 9th District City Council seat pits state Sen.

Their biographies and backgrounds present a stark contrast; their campaign platforms do not. Both have promised to bring more city services to the blighted 9th, clean up the commercial corridors, attract investment and create jobs. Sadly, neither has offered a detailed, credible plan to accomplish these objectives. But Price's experience and connections give voters more reason to believe he can move the district in the right direction.
