The midterm elections are on Tuesday, with significant races taking place in Los Angeles, including the mayoral race and campaign for LA County Sheriff.
Sheriff Alex Villanueva is looking to claim a second term but former Long Beach police Chief Robert Luna hoping to carry out the rare feat of ousting an incumbent sheriff.
"Mr. Luna, the Civilian Oversight Commission, the Board of Supervisors, they cannot wrap their minds around the idea that my very first day in, I removed the East L.A. station captain from his command because I had doubts about his ability to lead," Villanueva said last week, responding to Luna's latest allegation of inaction on the deputy gang issue.
Luna insisted last week that deputy gangs remain an issue, citing"men and women from the sheriff's department who have come forward, good men and women who want this rooted out." Hertzberg, D-Van Nuys, topped a six-candidate field seeking the District 3 seat in June, but he fell well short of the 50% of the vote needed to avoid a runoff. Horvath finished a close second.
The 24,414 votes cast Sunday brought the in-person total thus far to 72,074, according to the agency.
