It's the day after #ElectionDay.

Results continue to pour in as ballots across #California continue to get counted.

Here's a look at what races and decisions have been called and which are still undecided. ⬇️

California voters handed Gavin Newsom a second term as governor, choosing the incumbent over Brian Dahle, an unfamiliar Republican state senator from Lassen County.

The governor’s race was the first to be called after polls closed on election night.

In early returns, voters appeared ready to give Democrats another turn in other statewide contests and continue a decades-long hold on constitutional positions.

California will codify its progressive abortion protections in its state Constitution after voters overwhelmingly approved Proposition 1, a measure placed on the ballot in the aftermath of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe vs. Wade.

California voters passed a ballot measure to uphold a 2020 law that banned the sale of most flavored tobacco products, giving anti-tobacco advocates an expected victory in a multiyear fight against the industry to mitigate a youth vaping crisis.

Democratic Sen. Alex Padilla made history again when he became the first Latino to be elected to represent California in the U.S. Senate.

The race for L.A. County sheriff is too close to call.

Early results show Sheriff Alex Villanueva’s bid for reelection was at risk as his opponent Robert Luna took a sizable lead.

The race for L.A. mayor is also too close to call.

Businessman Rick Caruso held a razor-thin lead over U.S. Rep. Karen Bass early Wednesday morning in the historically expensive race for mayor of Los Angeles, with returns remaining far from definitive.

Results continue to come in.

And we're tracking it all.

Dangerous CO2 levels. Unflavored gelatin. Benjamin Franklin in a river.

This story examines a sport you might have ignored or joked about. But some facets of synchronized swimming – now called “artistic” swimming – could change your mind. @usaartswimming

The prevailing image of synchronized, or artistic, swimming changed in an instant last summer.

Anita Alvarez pushed too hard at the worlds, passed out and sank to the bottom. She now wonders if people look at her sport and see “how difficult it is.” latimes.com/sports/olympic…

Just like last winter, the @Dodgers are giving Clayton Kershaw time to contemplate his future. On Thursday they declined to extend a qualifying offer for the second consecutive offseason. latimes.com/sports/dodgers…
Clayton Kershaw would rather retire than break down again. Except he believes he won’t.

He'd rather walk away than be reduced to mediocrity. Except he believes that won’t happen.

When Kershaw pictures next year he imagines himself pitching. But where? latimes.com/sports/dodgers… Image
In September, Kershaw said he didn’t yet know if he'd return to the @Dodgers for a 16th year or move elsewhere.

He entertained an offer from the @Rangers before this season and could revisit the possibility of playing for his hometown team in the winter. latimes.com/sports/dodgers…

New: The Los Angeles mayor’s race has grown tighter, with businessman Rick Caruso now ahead of U.S. Rep. Karen Bass by just 2,695 votes, down from his 12,282-vote advantage a day earlier, according to new vote totals released Thursday afternoon.

latimes.com/california/sto…
That gave Caruso 50.25% of the vote to Bass’ 49.75%.

Going into the day, Caruso held a 2.5-percentage-point lead in the race to succeed Mayor Eric Garcetti, with about 500,000 votes counted. latimes.com/california/sto…
Roughly 545,000 votes have been counted in the mayor’s race, according to Thursday’s update. It is unclear how many uncounted votes remain, since ballots postmarked by election day are still arriving.

This is a story about @VeraDrew22’s fight to #FreeThePeoplesJoker: Hours before the film envisioning the Joker as a transgender woman trying to break into comedy was set to premiere, Warner Bros. Discovery objected to it as copyright infringement. latimes.com/entertainment-…
“They would be able to keep me in litigation forever because they’re a billion-dollar media conglomerate and I’m a broke trans woman,” she said of the letter WBD sent just before the film held its first screening. latimes.com/entertainment-… Image
So what is “The People’s Joker”? It’s been billed as “the world’s first impressionist superhero/queer art film” and was made with the help of hundreds of contributing artists all over the world during the pandemic. latimes.com/entertainment-… Image

Police pursuits are nothing new for Southern California.

But the chase that occurred Wednesday evening across Los Angeles and Orange counties was one for the ages.

Thread 🧵⬇️

For more than an hour, a suspect led police on a dangerous pursuit, twice stealing vehicles, hitting multiple cars and ramming into at least two police cruisers. latimes.com/california/sto…
Officers saw the driver of a black Honda Civic commit traffic violations near Auto Center Drive and the 5 Freeway in Fullerton.

The man sped off and police followed him into Anaheim, where he got on and off the 91 Freeway at least once.

California’s shift to mail-in balloting means that voting begins weeks before election day and tabulation continues for weeks after, meaning results can remain murky in all but the most lopsided races immediately following an election.

latimes.com/california/sto…
Vote-by-mail ballots take longer to process, particularly when a massive number of them arrive all at once on election day, officials and experts said Wednesday. latimes.com/california/sto…
That makes the entire tabulation process lengthier, with less immediate certainty about how many ballots remain or whether the later tranches will look substantially different. latimes.com/california/sto…
