Karen Bass will make history as the first woman to serve as Los Angeles mayor, CNN projects.
Rep. Karen Bass has made history as Los Angeles’ first female mayor, CNN projects, overcoming more than $104 million in spending by her rival Rick Caruso to win the race. The six-term congresswoman, who represents south and west Los Angeles, was able to put together a strong coalition of Black voters in South Los Angeles and White progressives on the city’s west side to prevail over the shopping mall magnate.
” She said she would declare a state of emergency on homelessness that would set a new tone on addressing the issue citywide: “It should be dealt with like a natural disaster,” she told CNN. “I’m really hoping that we begin to build a new spirit in this city, where people understand that this problem is everyone’s problem.” She cast Caruso as a political opportunist who had registered as a Democrat merely to improve his chances of winning the office.
