Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti (D), who served as co-chair for Democratic nominee Joe Biden’s vice presidential search committee, has withdrawn his endorsement of District Attorney Jackie Lacey, a frequent target of local Black Lives Matter activists.
In a statement published Sunday, Garcetti shifted his endorsement toward George Gascon, a former assistant police chief for Los Angeles who counts among his high-profile endorsers: Senators Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Governor Gavin Newsom (D) and Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Kamala Harris.
