CA-30: Former Los Angeles City Attorney Mike Feuer enters the race.
Former Los Angeles City Attorney Mike Feuer on Thursday became the latest Democrat to join next year’s packed top-two primary to replace Senate candidate Adam Schiff in California’s safely blue 30th District, which includes part of L.A. as well as all of Burbank and Glendale. Feuer launched his campaign with an endorsement from Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, whose city is home to just over half of the 30th’s denizens.
Feuer is a longtime local office holder who got his start back in 1995 when he was elected to the City Council, and he later won races for the state Assembly and city attorney. He went on to campaign for mayor last year, but his effort was hindered by allegations that his office concealed evidence in a long-running criminal investigation involving over-billing by the Department of Water and Power, a scandal that resulted in a guilty plea for one of Feuer’s former top deputies.
Feuer, who struggled to raise money, ended up dropping out ahead of the nonpartisan primary and endorsing Bass. Feuer got some welcome news in August, though, when federal authorities announced that the city attorney was not a target in their probe.
