How LA Should Vote When It Doesn't Know Who To Trust

By Daniel Guss

@TheGussReport - Los Angeles-area elections in recent decades usually go down in a very predictable way.

First, the Los Angeles Times endorses incumbents regardless of their job performance or, if they are termed out, their chief of staff or a member of their or a prior incumbent's broader family.  Second, instead of making recommendations of their own, other local media parrot the Times' recommendations.  Finally, Angelenos follow the Times' lead or don't vote at all, which is what the politicians and the Times want anyway.

What LA has in 2022 is the consequence of, or more precisely, the punishment for, going along with them like lemmings.

If that works for you, stick with it.
