Election reformer gets ethics post
Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa on Tuesday named a nationally known election reform advocate to fill a seat on the city’s Ethics Commission.
Paul H. Turner, who works in community relations and development for Citibank, will fill the seat vacated by Robert Saltzman, who recently joined the city’s Police Commission.
Turner worked from 2001 to 2006 at the Greenlining Institute’s Claiming Our Democracy Program, which advocated for such policies as same-day voter registration and full public financing of elections. He lives in Arlington Heights.
