Nithya Raman closes to within 1% of Spencer Pratt in LA mayor race

Jim’s Farts176

Now, if I understand the promise made, Pratt has to fuck off out of LA if he loses, yeah?

Charlie Hatfield112

wow. It's happening. Republicans are going to lose their f'ing minds. Lol

MJ of Everything is Public Health Production38

*heart palpitations intensifies* please we need him to fall and fall hard

RAMAN/STEYER VOTERS IF YOURE IN LINE STAY IN LINE

Caro H24

I’m officially glued to my Taniel notifications at 4pm every day

Mark G20

I hope she squeaks by him out just to drive the magchuds insane

Tig15

If she beats him, I'm sure Pratt supporters are going to be super normal about this

Geoffrey Hoytsman14

Hoping he’s out before Monday so Kimmel can give cousin Sal a call to make a spoof concession speech

STOP COUNTING THE BALLOTS (is I imagine what Spencer Pratt thinks should happen)

Justin Satzman7

Me, a liberal resident of Pacific Palisades who voted for @nithyaforthecity.bsky.social, around all the Spencer Pratt for Mayor signs in my neighborhood. #LAMayor

Mister Misanthrope6

The RepubliKKKans are already crying and saying Democrats are cheating and it’s hilarious. It’s called counting all the votes you fascist fucks.

Stephen Carcieri5

If she does even half this well with the remaining uncounted ballots she wins

Ed Oswald4

I know we're focusing on Pratt here, but Bass's numbers are getting awfully piss poor for an incumbent. If Raman can bring Bass down to ~30%, i don't see how that's a good thing for Bass's chances in November. It seems entirely possible if these ballots keep breaking so strongly for Raman

Do you guys know how they count votes everywhere else in the world

Somebody is going to claim fraud hmmmmmm who could it be?

MY MAYOR RAMAN THIS KAREN TOAST THIS PRATT A TURD NOVEMBER 3RRRRRD

acebojangles.bsky.social3

I refuse to believe that any actual person would vote for Spencer Pratt. That's my conspiracy theory

Stay Awake2

Pratt is a twat. Go Nithya Raman!

emmalulu67.bsky.social2

I didn't think he was serious I thought it was a vanity run 🙄

g̷̼̈́l̵i̴t̵ςђ e̷r̴i̸s̶ 🌌2

I think the more affluent (and conservative leaning) neighborhoods were reported first so 👀

Kelvin | Saved by Grace27

The phrase "bye bitch" followed by certified vote analysis is peak modern political reporting.

catninjamargoo.bsky.social16

I want this if only for the headline when it's official: PRATT FALLS!

Charlie Wu14

They should count extra slow so his demise more agonizing.

Danny Plainview11

The meltdown is going to be delicious.

Cray Craig8

Like I said the other day, Spencer:

Liz Parker3

I will be relieved to see the grifting stop. He'll otherwise be bankrolled at the Bel Air Hotel for the duration.

Glonzo Chaser2

Bass is still going to win but she’s in way more danger against Nithya than against Pratt

Gatsby2

Those polls showing Raman would beat both Bass and pratt in head to head seem to be coming to fruition......🤞

Fal Rising25

Who in their right mind would vote for spencer pratt

Raman is going to go to the general and she is going to win

Mary Agnes Shearon10

bsky.app/profile/meid... @meidastouch is saying Pratt has lost

Andrew Rodgers10

I would love to see him miss the run off. David Foster and Katharine McPhee can move to Florida in protest.

5🪶8

He's already thinking about how he's going to monetize his loss.

Nomad5

Has anyone offered to help Spencer Pratt pack ?

Phantom Thief4

184,596 complete fuckin idiots. Zero experience

Danger, Bees!3

Local data nerds are calling it for Raman right now

SouthernFriedHusker3

There is ZERO doubt in my mind Trump will send federal troops to Los Angeles if Pratt drops to third. Either via the Insurrection Act, the Guarantee Clause of the Constitution or both. This is also setting the state for the fascist SCOTUS to allow the RNC to win the Watson case. That’s the VBM case

Erick A.2

184k for Pratt. What a stupid embarrassing number.

Kelvin | Saved by Grace42

The real winner is whoever turned this into a coherent dashboard.

Ben Ross33

NYT shows Raman now only 7500 votes behind Pratt. One more drop like this would put her well ahead of him.

Tappin Lisa15

Raman is now only 1.11% behind Pratt (yesterday she was about 3.5% behind)

PTK12

I just looked Nithya Raman up on Wikipedia and oh snap, she fire! DSA and all, hell yes! Days are dark but she (Nithya Raman) win LA, things are much much brighter

Farm Dee4

Have to wonder who is more upset. Bass, or Trump

aramos123.bsky.social2

Bye bye pratt!! Good riddance!! Now keep your useless word and move out of L.A.

chaseacross☂️🇯🇴🇺🇦8

lol, lmao even -- eat shit, Pratt!

Hiegold6

Wait! Hasn't electing reality TV stars worked in the past?

Chris Wilhelm4

Oh please, oh please... 🤞🤞

neilsholander.bsky.social3

I'm so very much looking forward to the national post- mortem about how anyone with such a high profile social media presence & baked-in-the cake tribal/partisan baseline can barely squeeze out 25% against an incredibly unpopular incumbent and a unknown DSA CC member.

Hank Scorpion2

I worked on The Hills. Spencer was a dope who loved hummingbirds and weed. He should stay that person and not be in charge of anything important

Jay Robertson3

So Spencer Pratt's voters will now be the kingmakers in the runoff. Any polling on who their second choice is?

Robert Beatty-Walters2

This is very outdated. From 9:15 pm EST (6/06) Raman is solidly NOT on track to finish in the top 2:

lowinchen.bsky.social2

Pour one out for Pratt. (Or not.)

Diedrich Bader71

“We were winning in the third quarter and then this happened! Explain that to me!”

Prosediva47

I so hope he leaves California. Might I suggest Argentina?

Ann Kriss39

Sigh. We all waited. Every single one of us waited to vote until the last day because of the Governors race. These fucking people are exhausting.

howdydo.bsky.social15

They hate mail in ballots because the tabulators for those can’t be manipulated (yet)… youtu.be/Q-JKk_Slkxs

Hugh Lander14

We should all remember if ballots had to be received by Election Day we’d see this same thing happen (Pratt’s lead dissolve) as more mail-in ballots were processed It would just be in a compressed timeline.

justabitupset.bsky.social10

I've been browsing twitter for the meltdown. Some are calling for Trump to remove every dem politician in CA and replace them with federally appointed goons.

Kindler9

Um, yeah, to the extent that people voting against you constitutes stealing the election from you.

gainesm.bsky.social7

Do they somehow think LA of all places was going to go red? Lmao

Extremely Normal Guy (not weird about stuff)6

Genuinely hilarious how bad they are at taking Ls, since they're so good at accumulating them.

Girl from Downers Grove5

That's Trump's old ruse as votes continue to be counted. God, they are all so damn predictable.

mrdetermined.bsky.social4

Just more evidence that they're frauds that hate democracy, and why no one should listen to them.

Victory L. 🇨🇦🇵🇱🇺🇦🇦🇹🇾🇪 We are All Born Antifacist3

They can't win without lying and cheating. Finkelstein had know that for decades.

Chris Tucker is a Marxist!3

Did Los Angeles not have any socialists as options?

helchose.bsky.social3

Let them scream in impotent rage. They cannot stop what's coming.

Cora Linea2

Of course. They have been setting this up since he ran in 2015/16

Staid Winnow2

Try not to give those baseless allegations any print.

Adam Bowen2

Let these MAGA bitches scream bloody murder. They’re gonna lose, let’s do everything we can to make it a humiliating loss.

NonnyLynda2

If Dems wanted to, and were able to, steal elections, 2024 wi7ld never have gone the way it did.

The Fifth Dentist8

Bass being the worst-case scenario is still an infinitely better situation than Pratt being the worst-case scenario. It's the difference between kale for dinner and toad innards for dinner. (I expect numerous "but I love kale" responses.)

Barkeromo!!!6

Yes, Let's send pRatt back to the kato kaelin dustbin of obscurity.

McTeagle742

"sounds like" isn't "has". I've seen enough idiotic voting over the last ten years not to get my hopes up about living in a rational society. And why exactly is it the magic "healing" crystals are sold as "healing" crystals but the FDA hasn't come down on his grifter ass like a ton of bricks?

Bill Walter2

Hoping Steyer can pull off the same thing for California, and spare it, and the nation, a five-month national platform of Steve Hilton pushing Maga lies and disinformation. www.psychologytoday.com/gb/blog/psyc... bsky.app/profile/bill... www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-...

Constitutional amendment to bar reality tv stars from running for office, at any level.

(((John))) is mad on the Internet11

🦀 Shawn Morris 🦀9

Yimbyland became such a disappointment

Jonathan Eby9

pratt did a spoof ad where he rapped the prince of bel air. he complained that his house burned down (fair) and that he had to look at homeless people while driving his trailer to the bel air hotel. it was lame as hell

Vote Blue5

Spencer Pratt celebrates mothers day every day because he made his wife get TEN plastic surgeries and she's a-okay for him, now. all at once (it almost killed her on the OR table).

jules5

proud of myself for calling yimbyland an enormous assclown 2 or more years ago

Sean4

Worst example was actually NPR

Ody3

How anyone convinced themselves that LOS ANGELES, especially in the wake of an ICE and military occupation, was gonna go MAGA for some tubby shitstain from another county is laughable.

It baffles me that why so many Angelenos would still give their votes to the Republican after disastrous records of governing in the past year and half.

Kathy Castro2

Spencer’s cooked. Good job LA

Windy Girl2

How could 27% vote for another "reality star" 🤢 Wake up people!
