Supporters and critics alike envisioned Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti escaping L.A. just in time — the term-limited mayor of a beleaguered city finding new life in Washington. That's not what happened.

“Pete took Eric’s air all the way through this thing,” said Doug Herman, who was a lead mail strategist for Barack Obama's 2008 and 2012 campaigns and a senior adviser to Garcetti in his first mayoral run in 2013. “In the campaign, in terms of running, in terms of being the voice of the cities,” and now “in terms of getting a Cabinet position that Eric was mentioned for.”

“Look, he did everything that he was supposed to,” Herman said. “He made public endorsements … He stuck his neck on the line with fundraising. He was there in a real way, and early. When it wasn’t cool to be on Team Biden, Eric was there.” As the Biden administration evolves, Herman said, Garcetti will likely be the “first person off the bench … I definitely don’t think this is end of the road for him.” And former Los Angeles County Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky said Garcetti’s prospects aren’t dimmed.
