erkeley's mayoral race in last week's election has a new leader after the latest results released by the Alameda County Registrar of Voters.

Adena Ishii had 24,265 votes after four rounds of ranked choice voting, 51.2% of the votes tallied so far as of Friday afternoon, compared to Sophie Hahn's 23,120 or 48.8%.

The results are still unofficial and the county plans to release its next update on the vote count Wednesday.
