Election

[edit]

IncumbentJohn Clinton Porter announced that he would be running for re-election.[4] He was challenged byLos Angeles County SupervisorFrank L. Shaw, former MayorGeorge E. Cryer, andState AssemblymemberCharles W. Dempster.During the election, Shaw's citizenship came under question, as he had been born inWarwick, Ontario,Canada, and his birth records were not found.[5] Because of his birth records, a complaint was filed to try to prevent him from becoming mayor, asserting that he was still only a citizen of Canada and not a citizen of the United States.[6][7] In the runoff election, Shaw beat Porter by a comfortable margin.[1]
