Compton Today
"...all that changes when you know your history. Its funny how knowing your history can dictate where you are today and where you have the potential of going in the future."
- Councilman Andre Spicer

Before the title, there was purpose. Andre Spicer’s story begins long before City Hall — on the blocks of Compton where community meant everything. A proud son of this city, Spicer grew up witnessing both its beauty and its struggle. From mentoring youth and organizing block cleanups to showing up for neighbors in times of need, his leadership began with love for the people, not politics.
He lost by one vote — but something didn’t add up. In 2021, after being told he lost his City Council race by a single vote, Andre uncovered a story far bigger than his own. With courage and tenacity, he took on the system — exposing a web of voter fraud that ultimately led to a civil court ruling in his favor. A year later, justice prevailed, and he was rightfully sworn into office.
From day one, he got to work. Since entering office, Councilman Spicer has delivered real results. From infrastructure improvements and youth programs to increased transparency and public safety wins, he's made every moment count. His record proves what’s possible when leadership is grounded in integrity and action.
Not just change — transformation. Spicer sees a new Compton rising — one where economic opportunity thrives, families feel safe, and small businesses are supported to grow. His vision focuses on revitalizing corridors, expanding homeownership, strengthening city services, and building a legacy of Black wealth and innovation rooted in Compton.
He’s running for Mayor. And he’s ready. Everything has led to this moment. Councilman Andre Spicer is stepping up to lead Compton forward — with the experience, integrity, and commitment our city deserves. The same grit that brought him into office is now driving his mayoral campaign. This is the movement. This is the moment.

Ever since I’ve known Andre, he has been a tireless champion for the people of Compton. His heart for the community is evident in everything he does—from organizing food giveaways and toy drives to spearheading neighborhood cleanups and expungement clinics. Andre isn’t afraid to roll up his sleeves, knock on doors, or stand shoulder to shoulder with residents to make Compton better. Andre brings together people from all walks of life. Whether he’s working with youth at Dollarhide Community Center, leading innovative programs like free haircuts, or hosting celebrity basketball games to build unity, his creativity and commitment know no bounds. He truly thinks outside the box and delivers results that matter. More than a community advocate, Andre Spicer is a top-notch legislator—focused on real policy change, reducing violence, and creating opportunities. His track record speaks for itself, and the people of Compton have already seen the difference he makes. For all these reasons and more, I am proud to stand with 2nd District Councilmember and Mayor Pro Tem Andre Spicer and endorse him to be the next Mayor of Compton.
