****8 p.m.: Ok, so this is where it stands:
7 candidates qualified (Buscaino, Chambliss, Furutani, McOsker, Svorinich, Teuber and Wilson);
7 more candidates pending (petitions turned in, awaiting signature verifications). They are Frank Pereyda, Kambiz "Mostofi" Mostofizadeh, M. "Candice" Graham, James T. Law, Justin I. Brimmer, John M. Delgado Jr. and Robert Ferrell.
***6 p.m.: An after-hours worker at the City Clerk's Office told me tonight (30
minutes after the office closed) that other candidate hopefuls came in
before closing time and were still being processed, but no names or
numbers were being released immediately. There should be an update on
the City Clerk's website
by morning, but a firm list of who will qualify for the ballot will
depend on signature verification and may not be determined for another
couple days.
***Deadline is 5 p.m. today; lists below are being updated as new information is posted by the City Clerk (verification of signatures for petitions being turned in today may take an addition 24-48 hours beyond the deadline):
****Candidates officially qualified for the Nov. 8 ballot (listed in alphabetical order):

***Update: Rebecca Chambliss and Rudy Svorinich Jr. have just been qualified for the ballot. A seventh candidate, meanwhile -- Gordon Teuber -- has also turned in his petition signatures, all just before noon today.

Earlier posts:
Candidates have until 5 p.m. today to turn in their nominating petitions to run in the Nov. 8 special election to fill Janice Hahn's Los Angeles City Council seat.
So far, four of the 20 candidates have been qualified for the ballot by the City Clerk's Office: Joe Buscaino, Warren Furutani, Pat McOsker, and Jayme Wilson.
Rebecca Chambliss and Rudy Svorinich Jr. also have turned in petitions are are awaiting verification of signatures.
So will the race dwindle down to just six -- or at least under 10? We'll see how many petitions get turned in this afternoon.
