Petitions!

All of us running for office in the Los Angeles March 3rd election have been scurrying around collecting signatures to qualify for the ballot.

We need 500 to qualify, but to be sure that we have enough "good ones" we have to get an excess amount. We can submit to the elections clerk up to 1000. We also have a short time to gather signatures. First day to gather is November 8th and they must be submitted by December 3rd.

I've gathered at least 650 as of today. I'll be receiving at least 3 more sheets tomorrow from people who volunteered to circulate petitions.

Then I'll be compiling them and running them down to the City Clerks Office Election Division. The people at the Elections office and Ethics Commission have been very helpful.

Stay tuned, will update you soon.
