California State Assemblyman Richard Bloom has dropped out of the race for Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors. Bloom represents District 50, which includes Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Santa Monica, the Pacific Palisades, and Malibu. In announcing his move, Bloom said he would “focus on serving my constituents for the remainder of my final term in the State Assembly.”
“I am very proud of the campaign we ran, and I am grateful to everyone who helped to build it,” Bloom said in a statement. “I believe that the future of Los Angeles County is bright, and that our communities can and will solve the challenges we face. I am as committed as ever to working for that future, but I am going to take some time to decide how I can best be of service to our neighborhoods.”
