Following a Monday vote tally, Katy Yaroslavsky continues to hold a lead over Sam Yebri in the Los Angeles City Council District 5 race to replace Councilmember Paul Koretz.

As of 3:32 p.m. Monday, Yaroslavsky has earned 58.34 percent of the vote over Yebri, who has picked up 41.66 percent of the votes, a gap of 10,842 votes. These figures represent ballots cast by 31.98 percent of eligible voters. 

In other city races to watch, Karen Bass now leads Rick Caruso in the contest to replace Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti. Following the Monday tally, Bass has collected 52 percent of the vote. 

In the LA City Controller election, Kenneth Mejia holds a comfortable lead over current LA City Councilmember Paul Koretz, with the former picking up over 60 percent of the vote.

At the county level, incumbent Alex Villanueva trails challenger Robert Luna by over 19 percent in the race to decide the next LA County Sheriff. Voters also seem on course to approve County Measure A, which would give the LA County Board of Supervisors the power to remove the Sheriff for cause, with the measure currently picking up over 70 percent of the vote. In the LA County Board of Supervisors race to replace the seat being left vacant by Sheila Kuehl for District 3 – which includes much of the Westside –  West Hollywood Council Member Lindsey Horvath leads State Senator Bob Hertzberg by 2.38 percentage points. 

At the statewide level, Governor Gavin Newsom holds a comfortable lead over Republican challenger Brian Dahle while at the federal level both Senator Alex Padilla and Congressman Ted Lieu each seem likely to hold onto their seats.
