In Part 3 of the 2020 Elections series we take a deep dive into some of the races and ballot measures in LA County. What is the incumbent’s track record in city council? What are her top policy issues? We try to answer these types of questions and more for the District Attorney, LA County Supervisor, and City Council districts 4 and 10 races. We also break down Measure J, a measure pushing to reimagine public safety in Los Angeles.
