Has Santa Ana Mayoral candidate Alfred Amezcua landed Antonio Villaraigosa’s campaign consultant?
A source has reported to us tonight that Santa Ana Mayoral candidate Alfredo Amezcua has hired Parke Skelton to be his campaign consultant. Reportedly Mr. Skelton came highly recommended by several legislators who are friends of Amezcua.
Skelton knows a few things about mayoral campaigns. His past clients include Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.
We are told that Skelton conducted polling before hiring on to run Amezcua’s campaign. Reportedly the numbers favored his new client.
According to L.A. Observed, Skelton is the consultant most likely to lose sleep over going negative. He is known for left-wing politics and for picking candidate he wants to win. He is skilled at direct mail campaigning.

Art, I thought Pulido was a Democrat? Please tell who is affiliated with which political party? t/y
The only Republicans still holding elected office in Santa Ana are Carlos Bustamonte and Robert Richardson.
I heard he hired David Axelrod.
Art/Admin,
You used to have a he/she working at O.J. (Can’t remember it’s name) Is Red Vixen the same person? Seems like the same writting style to me.
Red Vixen and Sarah Spinosa? Don’t see any similarity at all. What, do they both make you uncomfortable, Fern? You little homophobe.
I think this clearly demonstrates that Al will be running a serious campaign.
For all that want to simply dismiss his candidacy all I can say is I hope Mayor Pulido follows suit.
By Al hiring a real consultant and not some minor league operator like Dennis DeSnoo he has said it is game on.
Miguel can’t dismiss him as a lame candidate like Thomas Gordon or Stanley Fiala.
Park would be a great pick
