Eric Garcetti campaign

Los Angeles City Councilman Eric Garcetti raised more than a $1 million in six months for his mayoral run.

Eric Garcetti has a near-perfect Angeleno political pedigree. As a 2nd-generation city politician and 2013 mayoral candidate, many in the Democratic Party see him as a star of the future. His present and future star power is on display this week in Charlotte at the Democratic National Convention.

WEIGH IN:

What is his role within the national party? How does his exposure at the national convention enhance his chances to ascend to the office of mayor next year?
