Land’s consultant, Parke Skelton, noted, “At the beginning of the race there were some question about whether Abbe could keep pace with a candidate who had served on the L.A. City Council for eight years. Well she has. It is a testament to the extremely broad base of support surrounding Abbe and her willingness to work hard and stay focused.”
