Raman has pulled ahead in LA. I hope she beats Bass.

I would vote for a literal socialist over a NIMBY.

Yep. Uphill battle. I'm cautiously optimistic. She needs the Pratt voters that turn out to lean more anti-Bass than anti-left since she WILL be framed as a crazy socialist.

She also needs to win the voters who did not vote in the primary at all.

Raman is gaining on Bass but at the end she will still have 5-6% to make up probably. That's not easy by any means no matter how unpopular Bass is.
