The Race for LA District Attorney

Hosted by

As LA County voters prepare to elect the next District Attorney, crime is down — and so is the money required for tough law enforcement. Veterans Jackie Lacey and Alan Jackson are trying to thread the needle before Tuesday's election. Can they balance promises of both public safety and greater efficiency? What are their positions on amending Three Strikes, eliminating the Death Penalty and Proposition 30, which would raise taxes for schools and for the DA's office? We talk to the candidates for the biggest job of its kind in America. Also, UCLA's Pauley Pavilion is almost ready after two years of renovations. We hear about money and a new arena for college basketball. On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, will electronic voting compromise the integrity of the presidential election?
