The 2013 race for LA City Attorney Tuesday appears headed for a runoff between Assemblymember Mike Feuer and City Attorney Carmen Trutanich.

The polls closed at 8 p.m. Tuesday. By 1:13 a.m. the next morning, with 78 percent of votes tallied in an unofficial city count, Feuer had won 43 percent of the vote and Trutanich 31 percent.

At around midnight, the Los Angeles Times and NBC LA said that the City Attorney election was most likely going to be decided in a runoff between the two candidates. Feuer and Trutanich will face off again in the city's general election on May 21.

By 1:13 a.m. Wednesday, candidates Greg Smith received 17 percent and Noel Weiss received 9 percent of the vote.

In the close race, Feuer has criticized Trutanich's track record and Trutanich has claimed that Feuer does not have enough courtroom experience. Smith, who has made millions of dollars as an attorney for police officers and firefighters claiming their employer discriminated against them, had positioned himself as someone who fights for Angelenos against government corruption and injustice.

In the USC Price/LA Times poll released Sunday, Feuer led the pack with 23.8 percent, followed by 16.4 percent for Trutanich, 15.2 percent for Smith and 4.7 percent for Weiss.
