I’m Civics and Democracy producer Brianna Lee, and I’ve worked on LAist’s election coverage every year since 2016.
-
Our goal is to help people feel empowered and confident about their vote. That only happens if we give them clear, unbiased information about the races and measures on their ballot, centered on the issues they care about.
-
My colleagues and I work really hard to do that. For our 2024 guides:
-
- More than two dozen LAist staffers across our editorial and product teams pitched in to report, edit, design and produce guides for L.A. and Orange counties
- We started months in advance, reporting and researching as much as we could about the races, sending candidate surveys for city council and school board, watching forums, examining endorsements from all sides and analyzing campaign finance data, even for the most obscure items on the ballot
- We answer every single question voters send to us, whether it’s about how to evaluate judicial candidates or what color pen to use for their ballot
-
After every election, we take a hard look at how we can still improve and make our next voter guides even more comprehensive and useful. Have a suggestion? Send it my way.
Did LAist help you vote? Member support made these voter guides possible.
Our election coverage is focused on you: helping you understand the results of these races and their impact on our everyday lives. And we don’t stop there, even after results are in, you need a source of trusted reporting that will hold those in power to account and shine a light on issues important to our communities.
Even after the last ballot is cast, LAist reporting and voting guides are here for you. But we need to hear from you now with your support to know that this work we’re doing is important.
We cannot do this essential work without your help. We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
At a time when the need for local journalism has never been greater, many newsrooms are facing cutbacks, including LAist. Member support — your support — is what will sustain a free press in Southern California.
LAist’s mission is to be here for you, so please be here for us now with a donation to power our trusted local reporting. Step up right now and make the choice to give. Because that’s exactly what it is — a choice. It's a choice with consequences. If readers do not choose to step up and donate, the future of fact-based news in Southern California will not be as strong.
No matter what happens in the world, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust.
Thank you for your generous support.
Sincerely,
