Yaroslavsky on Joe Biden and 2020 Democratic National Convention

Zev Yaroslavsky, director of the Los Angeles Initiative at UCLA Luskin, appeared on CBS2/KCAL9 News to provide analysis of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s speech during the final night of the 2020 Democratic National Convention. “Yes, he has a winning platform, and yes, he can do it,” said the former five-term member of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors. Commenting on Biden’s plans to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, Yaroslavsky said, “What Vice President Biden is promising and what he is proposing is to do what should have been done in the first place, which is lead, not follow, lead from Washington, lead from the White House, use the bully pulpit, bring the people along, provide the resources that are necessary to fight the virus and get it over with.” Yaroslavsky added, “Everybody understands that the stakes in this election in November, the stakes are very high. We have a distinct choice in November between Biden and Trump — no question.”
