A week before the election, 41% of Pratt&#8217;s primary voters shifted their support to Bass, up from her previous 22%. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A lot of the voters who were previously supporting Spencer Pratt in the primary have now weighed in, and they have moved to Bass,&#8221; said Mark DiCamillo, director of the Berkeley IGS poll.<\/p>\n<p>Raman had a slight drop among Pratt supporters, falling from 16% in September to 14% in October. However, the new poll showed that a large contingent of Pratt voters, 45%, remained undecided on the candidates.<\/p>\n<h2>Councilmember Nithya Raman<\/h2>\n<p>Raman announced her surprise bid for mayor in February after previously endorsing Bass&#8217; reelection bid.<\/p>\n<p>During the primary, Raman called her campaign a &#8220;long shot&#8221; before ultimately overtaking Spencer Pratt to face Bass in the general election.<\/p>\n<p>Before being elected to Los Angeles City Council in 2020, Raman served as the co-chair of the Silver Lake Neighborhood Council Homelessness Committee and co-founded a homeless advocacy nonprofit.<\/p>\n<p>One of her most notable acts in office came in 2025, when she introduced a motion capping maximum annual rent increases for tenants in rent-stabilized apartments built before 1978. It eventually passed 13-2. She said she hopes to undertake similar work to help small businesses.<\/p>\n<h2>Mayor Karen Bass<\/h2>\n<p>After serving more than two decades in public office as a congresswoman and as LA&#8217;s 43rd Mayor, Bass said this race will be her last campaign for office. <\/p>\n<p>Bass was raised in LA with her three brothers. She began her professional career as a nurse and physician assistant, where she later founded the Community Coalition to help underserved residents of South LA battle substance abuse, poverty and crime.<\/p>\n<p>She kickstarted her career in politics in 2004 as a member of the California Assembly, where she became the first Black woman to serve as Speaker of a state legislative body. She left the Assembly in 2010 to run for Congress, where she served in the House for 12 years.<\/p>\n<p>Leading up to the primary election, Bass received endorsements from notable politicians including California Gov. Gavin Newsom and former Vice President Kamala Harris. Nearly a week before the November election, billionaire Rick Caruso threw his support behind his former rival in the 2022 mayoral race and vowed to vote for her in November.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For the love of LA, I must put the past behind me because this election must be about our future,&#8221; Caruso said in a post to X. &#8220;I will be casting my ballot for Mayor Karen Bass.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He also said in the video that he had concerns about Raman that were not &#8220;much about ideology, but about competence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!--
