      Updated election results released June 5 continue to clarify outcomes across Los Angeles County, with incumbents maintaining strong leads, key measures decided, and additional congressional and citywide races taking shape.

      By Walt Beckett

      In newly reported results from the 28th Congressional District, Judy Chu led with 73,986 votes (65.94 percent), followed by April A. Verlato with 32,036 votes (28.55 percent).

      In Pasadena, Justin L. Jones won the District 3 City Council race with 77.27 percent; Jess Rivas ran unopposed in District 5; and Jason Lyon won District 7 with 83.90 percent.

      San Marino voters approved Measure S with 64.89 percent support, while Sierra Madre voters approved Measure GL with 72.37 percent.

      Los Angeles city voters passed Measure CB, which applies cannabis business taxes to unlicensed operators, with 71.17 percent support, and Measure TC, which updates transient occupancy tax collection rules, with 55.94 percent support.

      In education-related measures, La Cañada Unified School District’s Measure LCF passed with 62.81 percent approval, and South Pasadena Unified School District’s Measure SP passed with 74.69 percent.

      In the Glendale Community College District, Edit Khachatryan and Tony Pogosyan won trustee seats in their respective areas. In Glendale Unified School District races, Greg Krikorian, Kathleen Cross, and Aileen Dinkjian were elected in their respective trustee areas.

      The Pasadena Glen Community Services District’s Measure B, a parcel tax for road and culvert maintenance, was approved with 73.44 percent support.

      The results, updated as of June 5, 2026, reflect Los Angeles County election outcomes only.
