California’s Secretary of State and the Los Angeles County and Ventura County registrar-recorders reported the latest tally of provisional and mail-in ballots for the Nov. 6 General Election late Tuesday afternoon.

The latest tally showed retired LA County Sheriff’s Lt. Alex Villanueva extending his large lead over incumbent Sheriff Jim McDonnell, who said Tuesday night he was not ready to concede.

Democratic challenger Christy Smith also widened her overall lead over Republican incumbent Dante Acosta in the race for the California Assembly’s 38th district, which includes areas of both LA and Ventura counties.
