La2010

La2010 refers to the 2010 Los Angeles mayoral election. This election determined the mayor of Los Angeles for the term beginning in 2010. The incumbent mayor, Antonio Villaraigosa, was eligible for re-election, having served his first term. The election took place on March 3, 2009, as part of the regular city elections held in odd-numbered years in Los Angeles.

The key candidates in the race included Antonio Villaraigosa, who was seeking re-election, and a number of challengers. Among the notable contenders were Councilman Bernard Parks and Councilwoman Wendy Greuel, although Villaraigosa was generally considered the front-runner due to his incumbency. The campaign focused on issues such as the city's budget, public safety, economic development, and transportation.

The election ultimately resulted in Antonio Villaraigosa winning re-election, securing a second term as the mayor of Los Angeles. He received a majority of the votes, avoiding a runoff election which would have occurred if no candidate had achieved over 50% of the vote. His victory meant he continued to lead the city's administration and policy initiatives for the following four years.
