Big news! In the latest Berkeley/LA Times poll, we’ve surged ahead of Mayor Bass with an 11 point lead. This poll reflects the momentum we’re seeing on the ground. Angelenos are ready for change and want to see a City That Works.

Just found out Erin Reed is maintaining - I won’t link it but it’s on her site - a list of electoral campaigns (by Democrats) she actively encourages trans people to abstain from and tell others to abstain from. This is *insane*. This is an active sabotage campaign with no upside.
