Mayor Backs Colonna as Her Replacement
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
Mayor Beverly O’Neill on Thursday endorsed Councilman Frank Colonna in his uphill battle to replace her in the June 6 runoff to lead the state’s fifth largest city.
O’Neill, a thrice-elected incumbent, said Colonna would build on a “dynamic future we have worked for together.”
Colonna, a real estate broker, was outspent by former Southern California Edison President Bob Foster, who earned 48.5% of the vote, shy of the 50% required to win outright.
