I threw the rest below the fold.  Here’s the latest update with 65% reporting in CA-32:<\/p>\n

Though the lead continues to shrink, I don’t think Cedillo can make up 3,000 votes with what’s left out there.  Judy just declared victory, I’m told.<\/p>\n

UPDATE<\/b> More votes in, and Chu upped her lead to 3,300 votes with 75% in.  It’s over.  Congratulations to Judy Chu.<\/p>\n

…In other races, Carmen Trutanich is going to win the City Attorney’s race.  He’s up 54-46, by over 13,000 votes with 55% of the vote in, and he’s been gaining with each update.  What a terrible race run by Weiss.<\/p>\n

As for Council District 5, it’s Paul Koretz 53-47 over David Vahedi, though the spread is just 1,200 votes with 40% in.  That’s not quite over.<\/p>\n

Those are slightly softer numbers for Chu, but she has quite a cushion.  If vote by mail is 50% of the vote, which is what it looks like, there’s no way Cediloo can catch her.<\/p>\n

SD-26: Price is up to around 70% of the vote.<\/p>\n

City Attorney, with 15.5% in:<\/p>\n

Doesn’t look like there will be enough votes left for Cedillo.  Judy Chu is likely headed into a runoff with Betty Chu.  Chu-Chu.  Um. Chu.<\/p>\n

I think Trutanich is going to take this.  Simply an embarrassing loss for Villraigosa, if this holds.<\/p>\n
