GINA VIOLA FOR MAYOR

In 2022, social justice activist Gina Viola realized Los Angeles did not have the progressive candidate we deserved. She threw in her hat in a truly grassroots campaign staffed by volunteers. The progressive community of Los Angeles, small but mighty, embraced Gina’s candidacy, propelling her to a shocking third place in the final election tally, laying the groundwork for the progressive upset of Mayor-elect Nithya Raman in 2026.

I volunteered to produce social media ads like this shared below featuring a who’s who of progressive politics in Los Angeles including the most popular elected official in Los Angeles (then and now), our outstanding comptroller Kenneth Mejia.
