LA MAYOR'S RACE UPDATE: Karen Bass has widened her lead over Rick Caruso in new numbers out this afternoon
Bass has jumped out to a lead of more than 29,000 votes, or 52.15% to Caruso's 47.8%, according to the new figures from the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk's office.The race is still considered too close to call: There are still hundreds of of thousands of ballots to be counted, as the latest update represents roughly 76% of the estimated vote.
On election night, Caruso and Bass were in a virtual deadlock. A count released the next morning morning found Caruso ahead by about 12,000 votes - but less than half of the total ballots cast had been counted by that point. Since then, new totals have slowly moved Bass ahead in the race. Both candidates have continued to express optimism they will end up on top when all the results are in.
