Last week, <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/losangeles\/news\/los-angeles-mayoral-race-bass-raman-pratt-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">CBS News projected<\/a><\/span> that incumbent L.A. Mayor Karen Bass will advance to the runoff.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Candidates are also still on standby in the state&#8217;s chaotic primary to succeed Democratic Gov.

City Councilwoman Nithya Raman disappeared on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Pratt&#8217;s election night advantage diminished with each day of polling updates from the L.A. County Registrar-Recorder until Sunday, when Raman overtook him by less than a percent with 83% of votes counted.<\/p>\n<p>As of Sunday night, Bass maintained just under 35% of votes, while Raman had 27.1% to Pratt&#8217;s 26.7%.<\/p>\n<p>As the updated numbers rolled in, Pratt <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/spencerpratt\/status\/2063698148493799880\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">took to social media<\/a> to question the late surge in votes that were in favor of Raman. Bass, on the other hand, issued a statement through her campaign targeting the councilwoman.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We look forward to winning a contest against an opponent who allows encampments near schools and fights against hiring more cops, yet is MIA on saving Hollywood jobs and fighting back when ICE invades LA,&#8221; the statement said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Raman did not comment on the most recent numbers, but while speaking to supporters on election night, she remarked on what she called her &#8220;long shot&#8221; bid for mayor.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No one knew who I was; I was the last to enter this race,&#8221; Raman said. &#8220;We had no institutional backing.
