Election Results For City Council, Community College District Declared Official

Beverly Hills City Clerk Byron Pope has declared the official results of the March 5 municipal elections as well as the city’s share of the vote in electing board members for the Los Angeles Community College District, the nation’s largest community college district.

Earlier this week, City Clerk Byron Pope made the results official, confirming that Mayor William Brien and Vice-Mayor John Mirisch had been reelected by 21.63 percent of Beverly Hills’ registered voters. In addition, former Mayor Nancy Krasne beat Planning Commissioner Brian Rosenstein by a narrow margin of seven votes to win the only open seat on the City Council.

On Monday, the City Clerk also certified that a manual recount of a 1 percent sample of the votes cast in precinct 10 exactly matched the electronic vote count, according to Beverly Hills Public Information Manager Therese Kosterman.

The Beverly Hills City Council is scheduled to be formally installed on the evening of March 27 at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences Samuel Goldwyn Theater, located on 8949 Wilshire Blvd.

In countywide community college elections, the largest number of residents voted for Ernest Moreno, a retired president of East Los Angeles College and L.A. Mission College, who campaigned partly on a platform to complete bond measure construction projects rapidly and efficiently. Moreno also won a solid majority, along with Mike Eng, a termed-out assemblyman from Monterey Park, in countywide results.
