Yesterday's run-off election in the 2nd District of the Los Angeles City Council was
won easily by
MadProfessah-endorsed candidate
Paul Krekorian (43rd District Assemblymember) over
Christine Essel. Turnout was even lower than expected, with only 15.35% or less than 20,000 votes cast in a district which has around 125,000 registered voters. More than half of the votes were cast by mail and Krekorian had a nearly 60-40 edge in those votes.
The final results were:
|
VOTES | PERCENT |
|
|
| COUNCIL DISTRICT 2 |
|
|
| CHRISTINE ESSEL | 8,304 | 43.44 |  |
| PAUL KREKORIAN | 10,810 | 56.56 |  |
This means that there will be an upcoming special election to replace Krekorian in the 43rd District.
MadProfessah friend (and
hunky straight ally)
Mike Gatto will be a candidate in
a crowded field.
