#DemocraticSocialist Overcomes #GOP-Funded Opponent to Advance in #LosAngeles Mayor Race

City Councilmember #NithyaRaman will face off against incumbent Mayor #KarenBass in the November general election.

By Jessica Washington, June 8, 2026

"The surprising and divisive mayoral campaign of right-wing reality TV star #SpencerPratt came to an end on Monday, when Los Angeles City Councilmember Nithya Raman, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, claimed her spot on the general election ballot against incumbent Mayor Karen Bass.

"The second-place finish for Raman means that in the coming months, Bass will have to grapple with a challenger from her left. The incumbent mayor’s establishment bonafides at once lend her a strong political apparatus and make her the object of voter frustration. Raman, meanwhile, will face an uphill battle against the entrenched Democratic machine, which helped Bass easily secure a first-place finish. The embrace of mail-in voting by Angelenos slowly turned the tide for Raman, who initially trailed Pratt when polls closed last Tuesday."
