Dueling supervisors debate plan to rework L.A. County government

Two of the more left-leaning members of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors pitched fellow Democrats this week on their vision for the future of local government.

They just happened to want very different things.

Supervisors Holly Mitchell and Lindsey Horvath were guest stars Monday as the county Democratic Party debated whether to endorse Measure G, the ballot measure to overhaul county government that goes before voters on Nov. 5. The measure, crafted by Horvath and Supervisor Janice Hahn, would nearly double the size of the Board of Supervisors and create an elected position to oversee day-to-day operations.

Horvath said the changes would bring much-needed checks and balances to one of the most powerful political bodies in California.
