Note: if you’re one of the registered candidates, we encourage you to create a statement to be published on this site; rich text and images will be allowed, although we may impose a disk space limitation.
The election will be administered by the Los Angeles City Clerk’s office. The procedures to be followed in conducting the election, including the timeline, are available here.
