Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa joined Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger at an event today to throw his support behind the package of measures on the May 19 special election ballot.

Villaraigosa, a Democrat and potential candidate for governor in 2010, said the package would help "to bring stability back to California's budget system," in a prepared statement. Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson has previously endorsed the ballot package.

Other endorsers today: Los Angeles Sheriff Lee Baca and the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce.
