Endorsement: The 2020 election is finally upon us. Here are the races in which the L.A. Times plans to endorse (via latimesopinion)
The surreal remote conventions are over, and now Labor Day weekend marks the home stretch toward this year’s election. The Times editorial page will start publishing its endorsements later this week and will continue rolling them out through September and into October. We will make recommendations and lay out our thinking on each of the 12 statewide ballot measures, a big school bond, a Los Angeles County charter amendment, two crucial county offices, two seats on the L.A.
Voting by mail is now the norm in California, where nearly three-quarters of voters received and cast their ballots by mail in the March 3 primary. This time, every registered voter will get a blank ballot by mail, but not quite yet. County registrars will begin sending them out on Oct. 5. That leaves nearly a month to vote. Ballots will be counted if they are received up to 17 days after the election, so long as they are postmarked no later than Nov. 3.
The ballot measures cover issues that range from the seemingly obscure and technical to questions that address the most recent and vital events, including race, policing, health, jobs, housing and, always, money. More than a few propositions are the result of measures that previously passed and would be renewed, or overturned, or modified, or are do-overs of measures that were previously defeated.
Proposition 16 would repeal the ban on affirmative action in public programs that voters adopted in 1996, and Proposition 20 would partially roll back criminal justice ballot measures adopted in 2014 and 2016. Proposition 21 would affect rent control and follows a somewhat related measure that was defeated by voters two years ago. Proposition 23 deals with kidney dialysis clinics, the subject of a similar measure Californians defeated two years ago.
