LA City Council gets a new look soon, with three progressives and two moderates newly elected on Nov. 8.
After labor organizer Hugo Soto-Martinez came in first place in the June primary, besting two-term incumbent Councilmember Mitch O’Farrell by nearly 9 percentage points, he began fielding calls from people he didn’t know.
“I try to lead with a lot of humility, make it not about myself,” Soto-Martinez said. “You’re just a public servant. It’s not glamorous.” It wasn’t a clean progressive sweep. Councilmember Mike Bonin — a progressive stalwart on the council — will be replaced by a more centrist Democrat in Traci Park, who beat the more progressive Erin Darling. Tim McOsker, a City Hall veteran, defeated community activist and entrepreneur Danielle Sandoval in the 15th District City Council seat. In the city attorney’s race, the moderate candidate Hydee Feldstein Soto defeated Faisal Gill, who ran on a more progressive platform.
Soto-Martinez and Hernandez take their seats at a time in which City Hall is reeling from a scandal sparked by leaked tapes in October in which three council members made racist comments and attempted to manipulate redistricting. Hernandez said she was excited to work with the makeup of the council regardless of the number of progressives. But she believes this is a moment that the council cannot allow to slip by — especially around redistricting reforms, referencing Raman’s markedly different district after last year’s redistricting.
