CD9 appears to now depend heavily on how many ballots are actually left, which has become less clear. Today CD9 made up an outsized share of what LA County processed: 2.7% of ballots, more than double its 1.2% share of the count so far.
Ugarte's lead is down to 286 votes, and est batch since election night (58.6%).
58% is enough IF there are ~1,800 ballots remaining.
If there are around 600 left, he needs about 74% which appears to be unrealistic.
The real number is likely somewhere in between putting Ugarte in a strong position in a race still too close to call.

Following today's count it will be challenging for Mazariegos to make up the difference in CD9
With an estimated 1600 votes left he will need to pick up about 60.6%

Corporate money had a very bad year in LA
10 companies put $8.2 million behind Karen Bass, John McKinney and Tim Gaspar. All three lost
CD9 is still a toss-up with outside groups putting $2.75 million behind Jose Ugarte there

CD9 is down to 417 votes. Mazariegos cut Ugarte’s lead again today, but took 55.9% of the new votes, short of the 58.5% he now needs by our estimate
At this pace, Ugarte holds on by less than 100. At the pace Mazariegos hit on Friday, it’s about tied. Anything more and Mazariegos could win
