SAN FRANCISCO – Just two days after the general election, Mayer Brown associate Mike Gatto was sworn in as the newest member of the Assembly on Thursday.

Actually, Gatto’s election was a bit unusual. The Democrat’s name appeared twice on Tuesday’s ballot: once as a candidate in the 43rd Assembly District’s special election runoff to replace Assemblyman Paul Krekorian, who was elected to the Los Angeles City Council earlier this year, and the second time as a primary candidate for the very same seat. (Yeah, it’s complicated. Just trust us, Gatto is an assemblyman now).
