Krekorian backs Nahabedian for Assembly
Councilman Paul Krekorian announced Tuesday he is supporting Glendale School Board Member Nayiri Nahabedian for election to the Assembly seat he gave up.
Krekorian said he believed Nahabedian had the experience needed to replace him in the 43rd Assembly District.
"Under very difficult economic circumstances, Nayiri has worked hard to ensure that Glendale schools remain fiscally solvent and that their students are prepared to meet the challenges of tomorrow," Krekorian said.
"Nayiri is the only candidate in this race with the experience to confront the problems facing California, and the independence to make the hard decisions that will be required. In these extraordinarily challenging times, she is exactly the kind of leader we need to send to Sacramento to fight for us."

Yawn. Did a dog also bite a man?
There are two Paul Krekorians. One is the mensch he would have us believe he is. That guy would have backed the most qualified Democrat for the job.
Then there is the Paul Krekorian that those in Glendale and Burbank politics know. The guy who has a lightning focus on one group of his supporters, and really is quite exclusionary and divisive.
There was an excellent take on this posted online recently, at http://burbankblog.blogspot.com/
There's the story, Rick.
