Endorsement: Imelda Padilla for L.A. City Council (via latimesopinion )
Both were born and raised in the district, which includes Van Nuys, Lake Balboa, Panorama City, Arleta and Sun Valley, by working-class Mexican immigrant parents. Both were University of California undergrads who went on to earn master’s degrees. Both are millennials with impressive resumes showing a dedication to local public service.
But the differences emerge when it comes to their experiences and skills, and it becomes clear one is better suited to be a strong leader for the district and on the council. That’s Padilla. With two decades of work within the community — as a volunteer, organizer, activist and a staffer for local organizations — Padilla is best suited to win back the trust of residents after the last council representative resigned in disgrace.
