Vote Tomorrow in City Elections

The primary election for local governing bodies is tomorrow. If you have not already voted by mail, we urge you to identify your polling location and plan to vote tomorrow.    

Local City Council members make daily decisions that influence the ability of businesses to grow and prosper. School Board members and Community College trustees set policies and priorities that determine the quality and readiness of our employees in the future.

In the City of Los Angeles, a vote in support of Measures 1 and 2, which will move local elections to coincide with State and National elections, will encourage greater voter turnout for local elections and engage more Angelenos in the voting process. 

The L.A. Jobs PAC, sponsored by the Chamber, interviewed candidates over the last three months and is proud to present this list of endorsements for the March 3 Election.
