'The crisis that we have, we will get people housed, we will keep Angelenos safe. Money cannot buy what we have built,' Bass told the assembled crowd at a Saturday rally
Representative Karen Bass, who is running for mayor of Los Angeles, did not mention the latest poll that has her lead over billionaire developer Rick Caruso widening at Saturday's rally, but instead celebrated efforts of community groups to get her elected.
Hundreds of people, including union workers, local and state leaders and activists showed their support for Bass at Saturday event, held at LA City College. "We're going to make history with this woman, the first female mayor of the City of Los Angeles, along with the first Latina council president of the City of Los Angeles, because, damn it, that's how we roll in Los Angeles," LA City Council President Nury Martinez told the assembled crowd.
"The crisis that we have, we will get people housed, we will keep Angelenos safe. Money cannot buy what we have built," Bass said at the rally. "Polls show the top issues of this race are homelessness, crime, and corruption. I'm the only candidate who has a plan to fix these issues and when voters focus on these issues, the dynamics of the race will change.
