**Robert Luna holds an 86% implied probability of winning the November 3, 2026, Los Angeles County Sheriff runoff, with Alex Villanueva at 9%.** In the June 2 primary, Luna (incumbent, former Long Beach police chief) led with roughly 44% of the vote while Villanueva (his 2022 predecessor) placed second at about 22%, sending the pair to a rematch; all other challengers, including Eric Strong, were eliminated. Luna’s first-term record features annual declines in violent crime and use-of-force incidents, implementation of body-worn cameras in jails, creation of an Office of Constitutional Policing, and efforts to address deputy-gang issues and federal consent decrees. Villanueva’s platform emphasizes deputy recruitment, staffing levels, and criticism of current leadership on retention and operations. Luna’s substantial fundraising edge and the county’s history of re-electing sheriffs further shape the current trader consensus ahead of the general election. No major post-primary developments have altered the positioning.
