LOS ANGELES — Rep. Karen Bass has widened her lead to more than six percentage points over developer Rick Caruso in the Los Angeles mayor’s race, according to results released Friday by the county registrar-recorder’s office.
Bass has 42.9% to Caruso’s 36.3%, with a vote margin of more than 40,000, the results show. Caruso initially led Bass by five percentage points just after election day.
Most of the ballots from the election will be counted by Tuesday, when the next update will occur, said Registrar-Recorder spokesman Michael Sanchez.
