    • Abstract:
      The article presents information on the elections to the Mayor in Los Angeles. While plotting his campaign for mayor of Los Angeles, former California Assembly Speaker Antonio Villaraigosa said that he will only succeed if we can pull together the broadest possible progressive coalition-labor, environmentalists, women, Latinos, African-Americans, Asian-Americans, community activists. If Villaraigosa wins in LA, he won't be the only labor-backed activist mayor in southern California. Mike Feinstein, a key player in the California Green Party, has parlayed a big November win for an at-large Santa Monica City Council seat into selection by the council as mayor.
