WHAT WE FOUND

The provided documents focus on the dynamic shift in the Los Angeles mayoral primary between Nithya Raman and Spencer Pratt 1 3 6. While sources confirm that Raman overtook Pratt to secure a spot in the November runoff against Mayor Karen Bass 9, they do not provide specific vote percentages for any candidate 1 5 10. Consequently, the claim that Raman held a 29.7% share of the top three votes cannot be confirmed or refuted by the available evidence 2 4 7.
