Debate coverage

Last night's debate featured some spirited back and forth sniping between the candidates, mostly directed at (or by) Jim Hahn. Talking to reporters afterward, the mayor defended his administration against mounting ethics questions in part by exclaiming that his dad, Kenneth Hahn, had been the most honest politician in the state. There are stories on the debate in the Times, Daily News and Daily Breeze and on AP. Also, LAVoice.org blogged a transcript and online reaction, and CNN's William Schneider was on hand at LACMA's Bing Theater to do a report on the race for "Inside Politics."
