LA Mayor's Race: Nithya Raman Surges, Closes Gap on Spencer Pratt for Runoff Spot
Bass holds a clear lead as Raman cuts into Pratt’s advantage for second place, with 688,180 ballots still to be processed, officials said.
- Incumbent Mayor Karen Bass secured her spot in the November 3 runoff with 35% of the vote, according to Friday's results. She awaits final determination of her opponent as ballot counting continues.
- Reality TV personality Spencer Pratt holds 28% of the vote, though Los Angeles City Councilmember Nithya Raman narrowed his lead to about 3 percentage points in the latest update. Both vie for second place.
- With an estimated 688,180 outstanding ballots countywide, the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder will report daily results through June 26. Fernando Guerra, director of the Center for the Study of Los Angeles at Loyola Marymount University, noted Raman's advancement remains unlikely.
- Candidate Miller ended his campaign on June 4, receiving 3.88% of the vote, consistent with single-digit polling projections. He stated his commitment to solving the city's urgent crises remains unchanged.
- Raman reflected on the grassroots campaign, telling supporters: "Regardless of what happens next, nobody can take away what all of us have built together." Voters await final results as ballot counting continues through June 26.
