Many of the races in Tuesday’s midterm election have been called, but some, like the LA County Sheriff’s race, still hang in the balance, dependent on numbers from provisional ballots, mail-ins and other votes that are still being counted.
We check in on the cote counts from Los Angeles and Orange County.
Plus, ahead of the midterm elections, there was talk of whether we’d see a surge in the “latino vote.” Now, some are saying that the turnout was underwhelming while others claim that it was crucial to the Democrats securing the House.
We check in with the director of Latino Policy & Politics Initiative at UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs Sonja Diaz, who has been analyzing the California and national data on Latino voting trends this election season.
