Kornacki tracks LA mayor race as California vote delays loom

Steve Kornacki is tracking the race for Los Angeles mayor during California’s primary, while California election officials warn results may be delayed as the vote count continues overnight.
Steve Kornacki has the Los Angeles mayor race open on his screen as voters move through the final stretch of California’s primary. The numbers aren’t just figures to him tonight — they’re the kind of counts that determine who gets to steer a city, and how quickly people get answers.
In the middle of the coverage, the focus shifts from how the campaign is landing to when the public will learn what it landed. Election officials in California say results may be delayed because the vote count will continue overnight.
That promise of “overnight” clarity lands alongside the broader push across multiple races being dissected in real time — including Kornacki’s breakdown of projected winners in other primaries such as New Jersey and Iowa. along with the results for a projected winner in Iowa’s Senate race and additional numbers coming out of a significant Montana House primary. In Iowa, Josh Turek is projected to have won the Democratic primary for the Iowa Senate seat.
As the night moves forward, Los Angeles remains the headline track for Kornacki: what happens next isn’t only a question of who leads, but how long people have to wait for official confirmation. In primaries, that gap — between votes cast and results posted — is where uncertainty grows.

So basically we won’t know anything overnight?? coolcool
I don’t get it. They said primary results delayed but Kornacki is already showing who’s winning?? Like how is that not confusing.
Josh Turek projected win in Iowa Senate… meanwhile LA mayor race is “delayed” which sounds like they’re dragging it out on purpose. Probably counting mail ballots slower because of politics or something.
Kornacki tracking LA mayor on a screen like it’s sports, but then election officials are like “results may be delayed” overnight. Isn’t that just because they take breaks? Also Montana House primary numbers coming out?? feels like every state is doing their own thing at the same time.
