  1. Newton: The mayoral money trap

    There are good reasons for most of the city's campaign finance laws. Individual contribution limits are intended to keep a single donor from purchasing the support of a candidate. Public financing is intended to level the playing field between incumbents and challengers. Limits on gifts help deter graft.

  2. Newton: Schools and City Hall

    To the cynically tuned ear, two remarks by Los Angeles Councilman Eric Garcetti in recent days seem to suggest the perils of a mayoral candidacy dependent, at least in some measure, on support from United Teachers Los Angeles, the union that represents local teachers.

  3. Greuel's campaign of 'gotchas' conveys desperation

    It's beginning to look like there's nothing Wendy Greuel wouldn't do to become the next mayor of Los Angeles.
    It's beginning to look like there's nothing Wendy Greuel wouldn't do to become the next mayor of Los Angeles. Her boatload of big-money backers seems fond of trash-talking gibes so slimy, they're apt to backfire and turn voters off. -------------------...

  4. Wendy Greuel takes on the crowd at Tolliver's

    "Hi guys, long time no see," Wendy Greuel said, strolling into Tolliver's barbershop as if she were a regular.

  5. In L.A., it was a three-column day

    You know you live in a wild news town when a massive manhunt for an ex-cop leads to a dramatic shootout and inferno on a snow-covered mountain, the mayor pitches a tax increase that's beginning to look like attempted extortion, and the rebuked local...

  6. Newton: Labor's agendas

    This has been a complicated season for organized labor in Los Angeles.
    This has been a complicated season for organized labor in Los Angeles. On the one hand, labor got the mayor's race it wanted: Controller Wendy Greuel and Councilman Eric Garcetti both have a long history of supporting, and being supported by, unions....

  7. Newton: An opening for the outliers

    The most remarkable proposal of the mayor's race to date took most of the field by surprise last week. On Tuesday, Controller Wendy Greuel announced that, if elected, she intends to add 2,000 officers to the ranks of the LAPD and 800 firefighters to the Fire Department over the next seven years.

  8. Mayoral candidates making budget statements, but nothing adds up

    You're six months behind on the mortgage. Your credit cards are maxed out. Your small business is treading water.

  9. Newton: Courting the Valley

    It was just over a decade ago that the San Fernando Valley tried to break away from Los Angeles and become its own city, one roughly the size of Philadelphia. The effort was a fairly resounding flop. The city as a whole rejected secession by a two-thirds vote, and it only barely passed in the Valley.

  10. Newton: What about the Port of Los Angeles?

    It's fun for mayoral candidates to imagine eliminating potholes or building new trains to link the Valley to the Westside. It's not hard to support a spiffed-up LAX (really, what's hard to believe is that it's taken this long) or legions of new police officers making Los Angeles safe. What you don't often hear from these candidates, however, is a thoughtful vision for the Port of Los Angeles.

  11. Newton: Greuel's hot hand

    It's still very, very early in the campaign to become the next mayor of Los Angeles, but right now, it's City Controller Wendy Greuel who's playing the hot hand.

  12. Newton: Who's on 1st (and Spring)?

    I can't say for sure whether Los Angeles County Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky will run for mayor in 2013. I don't even know with certainty whether he's already made up his mind and is just stringing the rest of us along. What I can tell you without any question, though, is that he's enjoying being asked.
