LOS ANGELES—Los Angeles City Councilman Mike Bonin announced he will not be running for re-election in the upcoming race for Council District 11—less than two weeks after his near escape from a recall campaign that was short of about 1,400 validated signatures.
Bonin, who was first elected to District 11’s council seat in 2013, was reelected in 2017 by winning 71 percent of the vote. Last year, he announced he would seek re-election in the upcoming race for his seat in 2022.
