Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse for Los Angeles, they elected a dues-paying Democratic Socialist (Communist) mayor.
Socialist candidate Nithya Raman ousted Karen Bass and won the Los Angeles mayoral race.
Los Angeles Councilwoman Nithya Raman increased her lead over Karen Bass earlier Wednesday.
Raman opened up a two-point lead over incumbent Bass after a Wednesday morning drop.
"Raman had 377,458 votes to Bass’ 360,864, the Associated Press reported, a margin of 16,594 votes. Bass had a narrow advantage in the early returns Tuesday evening, but that evaporated overnight," KTLA reported.
The Decision Desk called it for Raman on Wednesday evening.

Enjoy a deeper Hell Los Angeles.
Socialist? Well, they voted for it… let’s see how it turns out.
Who cares?
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
Karen Bass thought the socialists were only out to get Spencer Pratt. LOL.
Don’t care what they do in the s***hole that is L.A.
IT seems like Angelenos decided to dig themselves deeper toward hell.
The Trotskyite beat the Stalinist.
From Bass Ackwards to socialASSt.
SpaceX has a design center in Hawethorne(sp?) Ca. It's 10mins from LAX. There was a job opening, on site only. Uhh yea, no.
Bass is horrible. Rahman is worse.
Is the mayor of Houston a Socialist?
The stealth commie’s been defeated, so now it’s the open commie’s turn to burn down the rest of LA.
Oh, democrats....never mind.
Los Arses deserves this.
Going same route as dr. Zhivago.
Pretty sure Bass is a communist, lowercase "c."
She:
They brought this madness on themselves.
It was between a woman who deliberately burned a city to the ground, killed 13 people, left the country, came back with a smug look on her face and blamed her lesbo fire chief versus a woman who thinks its A OK to have hobos taking dumps outside of elementary schools while your kids play and wants to exterminate landlords..so yeah it was a lose/lose situation, the second Spencer got screwed that was it
