Grok misled people about the Los Angeles election

Yes, Spencer Pratt advanced to the November general election runoff.

With ~51% of votes counted: Karen Bass ~36.5% (1st), Pratt ~29% (2nd), Nithya Raman ~21% (3rd). No candidate hit 50%, so top two advance. Bass and Pratt head to the runoff.

(The LA Times phrases it, "Mail-in ballots will continue to be accepted through Tuesday, but analysts say the trend favors Raman moving into a Nov. 3 runoff with incumbent Karen Bass.")
