With the March 8 city election around the corner, the editorial board has begun churning out its endorsements, starting with recommendations for LAUSD school board: the Rev. Eric P. Lee in District 1, Tamar Galatzan in District 3, Luis Sanchez in District 5 and Richard Vladovic in District 7. Stay tuned for endorsements for Los Angeles City Council and the 11 ballot measures, which editorial writer Robert Greene decoded in December; we’ll have recommendations to guide voters to the best of the 17 candidates vying for council seats in Bell as well as the one councilwoman who is trying to defend her seat against a recall election. Meantime, we’ve launched a voter guide that’ll continue to grow as the election nears. One forthcoming feature will include a Q&A series with the candidates, care of our friends in Metro. If you have a tough question you’d like to ask any of the candidates, now’s your chance. The submission forum is open until the evening of Wednesday, Feb. 2.
