Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) is slated to advance to the general election in her bid to hang on to her seat, Decision Desk HQ projected early Wednesday.
Her opponent has yet to be determined. The first-term mayor has faced a tough reelection battle against Republican reality TV star Spencer Pratt and progressive Los Angeles City Council member Nithya Raman (D), among others, in the race. The mayor's contest is formally nonpartisan.
