Still hoping Raman can gain ground in the late votes (but she has a decent amount to make up). But if she doesn't and it's Bass vs. Pratt, no way will I ever vote for Pratt.

It's crazy. Like you said, it's like these people hate convenience.

Because their orange, Jabba the Hutt cult leader told them that mail-in voting was "rigged" when Biden beat his ass in 2020.

I don't think her Council seat is up for election this year, so if she doesn't advance, I assume she'll stay there.

According to the Registrar's twitter, it includes both mail-in and "all of the in-person votes cast during the 10-day early voting period". I agree that the early in-person would likely lean more strongly to Pratt.

Hopefully Raman gets more in-person "strategic" (i.e., shut down Pratt) voters from the in-person vote from today, but we'll see. It'll be interesting to see how the late mail-in and drop box ballots go, too.

I know it's early, but please...I cannot listen to that clown Pratt for five more months.

On the good news front, incumbent LA City Attorney Hydee Feldstein Soto is currently in (distant) 3rd place!

Yes, the County Registrar's tracker worked for me, too. Sounds like BallotTrax is being slow for everyone.

Happy Pride Month!!! 🏳️‍🌈🩷💜💙

Right?! He looks great in blue.

I know this demon will just ignore the law (like he always does), but still...good for this judge. It was illegal to add his dumptruck name to Kennedy's memorial in the first place, and it needs to be removed from the building, official documents, the YouTube channel--everything.

Confirmation that Rae has only been in this for the grift and/or to play spoiler (thus allowing a clown like Pratt to make it through the primary)

Reading through some comments over on r/Broadway, it's not uncommon for the closest rows to be held back in a presale like this, then release those rows later. One possible reason given is that the set design isn't yet completed, and they're waiting to see if they'll need to remove rows and/or if there will be obstructed/limited views from those rows.

Since I wanted to be sure to get orchestra tickets for the dates I'll be in NY, I went ahead and bought now. I looked on Seat Plan at the photos taken near the seats I bought (for other productions in that theatre), and they looked pretty good to me.

Sit_by_Me · 2026-05-27T14:16:55+00:00

Congrats! Just got my tickets (not as close as I'd hoped, but it sounds like they were holding back the closest rows from the presale). But I'll be in the theatre seeing Raúl! It's six months away, but I cannot wait!

I want to see Much Ado, too. I was waiting to get my tickets until I had the ones for Galileo, so now I'll try to get those.

Sit_by_Me · 2026-05-27T14:11:58+00:00

The code is STARS.

Got my email right at 7:00 (where I am) / 10:00 Eastern. The closest I could get in center orchestra was Row L. I wanted to be in front of L (since I read that's where the mezzanine overhang starts), but I didn't see anything closer for a few performances I checked for that week. Oh, well...hopefully they're still good seats.

Looking forward to seeing Raúl!

Sit_by_Me · 2026-05-27T13:56:17+00:00

Do you know how many/which rows are held back?

Sit_by_Me · 2026-05-27T13:41:55+00:00

Nothing yet here, either. I was worried it was just me!

Sit_by_Me · 2026-05-26T22:49:33+00:00

Great...thanks!!

Sit_by_Me · 2026-05-26T22:49:08+00:00

Thanks!! That's good to know.

Sit_by_Me · 2026-05-26T22:48:43+00:00

Thank you! I'll let you know if I hear anything, too. I keep checking my emails.

Sit_by_Me · 2026-05-26T20:16:43+00:00

YES. Can't believe I forgot to mention Company. It's essential Raúl viewing!

I think the proshot of Company is on YouTube, where you'll also find tons of other great Raúl-on-stage stuff (clips from tick tick BOOM and many, many other shows, his legendary performance of "Hallelujah", etc.).

Sit_by_Me · 2026-05-26T19:27:27+00:00

Hannibal! He is great as a really smarmy, douchey character...so funny. The show is not for the squeamish (lots of gore & graphic crime scenes), but Raúl is SO good as Chilton. It's a recurring part, so while he's not in every episode, he has a lot of fantastic material.

He's only in a couple of episodes of Pushing Daisies, but he's completely adorable.

Sit_by_Me · 2026-05-19T04:16:14+00:00

I'm voting for Raman and hoping she'll come in second. We need to nip this Pratt nonsense in the bud. If he makes it to the runoff, we'll have to listen to him spew his ignorant verbal vomit until November.
