Truth matters. Community matters. Your support makes both possible. LAist is one of the few places where news remains independent and free from political and corporate influence. Stand up for truth and for LAist. Make your year-end tax-deductible gift now.

It's election season! It's that time of year when you go to the polls and make your voice heard on important issues... like whether chocolate-covered peanut butter is better than chocolate-covered caramel and whether gummy candies are superior to coconut-based ones. That's right, it's our Halloween candy ranker quiz.

In the past, we've asked our KPCC audience which candies they love — and which candies they love to hate. Now, we're asking our LAist audience to vote for their favorite and least favorite candies in our super scientific quiz.

You come to LAist because you want independent reporting and trustworthy local information. Our newsroom doesn’t answer to shareholders looking to turn a profit. Instead, we answer to you and our connected community. We are free to tell the full truth, to hold power to account without fear or favor, and to follow facts wherever they lead. Our only loyalty is to our audiences and our mission: to inform, engage, and strengthen our community.

Right now, LAist has lost $1.7M in annual funding due to Congress clawing back money already approved. The support we receive before year-end will determine how fully our newsroom can continue informing, serving, and strengthening Southern California.

If this story helped you today, please become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission. It just takes 1 minute to donate below.

Your tax-deductible donation keeps LAist independent and accessible to everyone.
