An education ally of Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa said Tuesday that he failed to qualify for the March 3 school board election because his campaign consultant gathered voter signatures in the wrong school board district.

Parent advocate Ben Austin, who had billed himself as Villaraigosa's pick in the race to replace Marlene Canter in her largely Westside district, was still trying to determine whether he should challenge the findings of city election officials.

Way to go Antonio and company! We trust you guys. You are winners and successful champions. Not an embarassment to the people who supported and backed you the first time.
