Vote March 8th- City Council -Elections for Even-Numbered Districts.

Tuesday, March 8th is the next election for the even-numbered districts. 7 council seat are involved.

Lincoln Heights is in Council District 1, and not involved until 2013. Expect Ed Reyes to run for whatever other office comes open first in either state or federal levels since he will be termed out in 2013.

In CD-14, you have two choices, the incumbent, Jose Huizar and the challenger, Rudy Martinez. Antonio Villaraigosa was once the CM in CD-14, promised to serve out his term of office and then ran for Mayor and won. Jose Huizar may also cut his term short if he is re-elected, and run for City Attorney.
(more on this later).


There also is the Board of Ed. election for some offices- Yolie Flores is not running again so District 5 will have a new member of the Board.

The L.A. City Council put several ballot measures up for the voters to decide. In some cases, it was put to the voters since the council could not decide the matters themselves.

More on these items to come.
