In a significant development for the Chula Vista City Attorney race, Dan Smith Diaz, a seasoned attorney, has garnered the endorsement of the Latin American Political Association (LAPA). This announcement comes after a forum held with all Chula Vista city attorney candidates on September 22, according to the San Diego News Desk.
LAPA is a non-partisan association striving to promote leadership, unity, and increased Latino participation in the political sphere. Its support for Smith Diaz marks a potential turning point in the city attorney race. Eddie Cervantes, LAPA's President, has been quoted as saying, “Dan has well-rounded experience as an attorney and will provide exceptional legal counsel to the City as city attorney.”
Smith Diaz's career as an attorney spans 33 years, and his impressive track record resonates with the Chula Vista community. He has called Chula Vista home for more than 20 years, and within the heart of downtown Chula Vista, his law firm has been operating successfully for 11 years. Alongside his wife, Layla Villegas Smith, they have proudly raised their three children in Chula Vista. For more information on Dan Smith Diaz and his campaign, visit his official website.
