Rules

The Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk publishes the official results for the Los Angeles mayoral race, and those results decide the outcome. The outcome is Yes if the candidate named in the market question is elected mayor. The outcome can be decided before official certification if one or more of The Associated Press, The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal have called the race for the same candidate, all of those calls agree, and no recount, legal challenge or other official proceeding that could affect the result is ongoing or formally announced. Otherwise it stays open until those conditions are met or until the results are officially certified. The candidate determined to have won counts as the winner whether or not they take office. If a candidate formally withdraws, misses the filing deadline or publicly confirms they are no longer seeking the office at least 14 days before the election, the outcome for that candidate may be decided as No at the exchange's discretion, and it does not change if they later re-enter or win. Resolution happens when the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk releases official results, and if that release is delayed, resolution waits until it is published.
