For LA DA I went against my local dem party endorsement went @Jeff4DA. I liked mostly what he stood for(climate, criminal justice reform) but it was his statement here that sealed it, only one who mentions @POTUS and work on Criminal Legislation with him when Joe was a senate

Have you voted yet? If you’re in Los Angeles County, here is some good advice for LA County District Attorney:
LA Daily News’ @_ClaraHarter: “Chemerinsky… is a good bet for people that still want a criminal justice reform agenda but don’t believe Gascon is steering the office in the best direction.”

⁦@Jeff4DA⁩ took the time to call me today when I had some ?’s about his stance on resentencing & enhancements. He supports reform but will balance that with public safety, a better choice than the others running. I support him & hope all of you in LA will do the same.

Heart of LA Democratic Club supports Jeff Chemerinsky for LA County District Attorney! #Vote @Jeff4DA
This AM I joined other Democratic leaders supporting @Jeff4DA Chemerinsky at a news conference where he explained how the current DA cost the County $5 M(!) b/c he prosecuted someone targeted by right-wing election deniers. We need this office to have better discernment abilities

Voting in LA County? re: LA County District Attorney’s race, @newton_jim knows LA politics: “Chemerinsky…is the greatest threat to Gascón’s re-election and would be a strong favorite to defeat him in November – if he makes the runoff.” Go @Jeff4DA ! calmatters.org/commentary/20…

Jeff is one of the hardest working, most dedicated, and morally centered people I’ve ever met. He’s the DA that LA needs right now. Check him out @Jeff4DA, see all the business & political leaders that are already supporting him, and most of all VOTE! 📷: @bryanbeasley #jeff4da – at Los Angeles, CA

After a great deal of research and careful thought, I’m voting for Jeff Chemerinsky for LA County District Attorney.
This is such a huge honor. I’ve always admired Wendy Gruel’s principled leadership, excellent service to our communities, and her integrity. This endorsement shows our growing momentum, and in the final two weeks before Election Day, I look forward to meeting more voters and discussing how we can bring more safety and equity to LA County.

When Republicans push to defund the FBI and DOJ, they’re pushing to defund the work of people like Jeff Chemerinsky who ran the violent crimes division for United States Attorney Office in Los Angeles and prosecuted violent criminals

I heard Jeff speak this week, with a room full of lawyers and long-time Pacific Palisades residents asking tough questions. His answers were great. @Jeff4DA is an experienced prosecutor who led the Organized & Violent Crimes div for US Attorney's. He's who we need now.

I couldn’t be prouder to be a part of a club that has made Jeff Chemerinsky our club’s first ever endorsement! Jeff is a good friend and will give Los Angeles the D.A. that L.A. needs and deserves. #Jeff4DA
ENDORSEMENT ALERT! @CulverCityDems just announced that they’ve endorsed my campaign for District Attorney with 73.9% of the vote. That means that I am now the only challenger with not just one but TWO democratic clubs supporting my campaign.

Also with a lot of candidates repeating each other's talking points, notable @Jeff4DA has been the only one to mention criminal justice reform or prioritizing violent crime to dig out from D.A.'s office's large case backlog. (I've reported its 10K cases, candidates say 13K.)

Democrat @Jeff4DA is the latest candidate to challenge LA Co DA George Gacon on the 2024 ballot. The former federal prosecutor never lost a case, including convicting the head of MS-13. "I'm an outsider..I'm running to provide that office...a fresh start." Via @FOXLA

Former Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeff Chemerinsky is challenging incumbent George Gascón for the role of Los Angeles County District Attorney. Noted for his impressive record of successful prosecutions, will voters be swayed by his stellar legal history?

My friend @Jeff4DA is running for DA in Los Angeles County. He’s a man of character and empathy, a proven public servant, and an experienced prosecutor with common sense plans to fight crime responsibly and compassionately. Check out his campaign.
My name is Jeff Chemerinsky. I’m a federal prosecutor and served as Chief of Violent and Organized Crimes at the US Attorneys Office. I’m running for LA County District Attorney because we deserve safe communities, criminal justice reform, and new leadership for the DAs office.
