According to @latimes: “Rep. Karen Bass has defeated businessman Rick Caruso in the Los Angeles mayor’s race, according to an Associated Press projection Wednesday, making her the first woman and second Black Angeleno elected to lead the city in its 241-year history. The 69-year-old congresswoman achieved victory despite Caruso spending more than $100 million of his own fortune on his mayoral bid, shattering local spending records and pumping previously unprecedented sums into field outreach and TV advertising.” It takes a village to elect a Mayor Bass. There are too many friends to name but chief among them are her current and former Chief-of-Staff @darrynaharris and @jennydelwood. You sacrificed and led a dynamic team to deliver a consequential win for the People of Los Angeles. #MayorBass #ItsOfficial #NewDayForLA #OrganizedPeopleWon #ProudFriend
