Supervisor Candidate Gets Former Culver City Mayor's Blessing-- But Only After Toiling in His Market
Today(5/3), former Mayor of Culver City, Al Vera, officially endorsed Councilmember Bernard C. Parks in his bid for the 2nd District Seat on the Los Angeles County
Board of Supervisors. The endorsement didn't come easy. Vera gave Parks the nod after the Councilmember worked behind the counter in Vera's famous Serranto
Market. Parks took food orders and returned customers' change for more than an hour. In addition to getting Vera's endorsement, Parks' new gig also allowed him to
meet and greet Culver City voters.
"I am pleased to have the endorsement of Al Vera, who's also known as "Mr. Culver City", Parks said. "He has successfully run a city and run a business, and I look
forward to working with him when I am elected."
Vera said, "I am endorsing Councilmember Parks because he knows that business and job creation go hand and hand. I add my endorsement to Supervisor Yvonne Burke
and the numerous other supporters that are committed to electing him into office."
Parks is leading significantly in the polls and has doubled his next closest candidate's fundraising total. The election is June 3rd.
