What is it? Down Ballot is a curated newsletter breaking down how decisions made in Sacramento and Washington, D.C. impact Southern California, also providing a behind-the-scenes look at how local government is operating, and keeping you up-to-date on the latest election news.
It’s curated by Kaitlyn Schallhorn, a politics and local editor who has spent the past decade following candidates as they barnstorm across the country, tracking bills as they progress through statehouses, and sitting through countless hours of tedious hearings.
