UMVA has learned that former reality‑TV star Spencer Pratt is unleashing a full‑throttle campaign to reclaim Los Angeles after what he calls a “rigged” mayoral election.
Pratt, who surged ahead in the early primary, once outpaced City Councilwoman Nithya Raman by roughly 40,000 votes on election night, igniting hopes among his supporters that the city’s future might finally tilt in his direction.
But the tables turned dramatically when Raman allegedly rallied a wave of questionable mail‑in ballots, vaulting ahead by an estimated 70,000 votes and now sitting about 30,000 votes ahead in the latest count.
With the city still tallying the remaining 7,000 ballots ten days after voters cast their choices, Pratt vows to stay in Los Angeles and fight “until every illegal vote is exposed.”
In a bold new poll released this week, Pratt appears to have overtaken former Mayor Karen Bass, suggesting his insurgent momentum may still be alive despite the setback.
“Los Angeles deserves a leader who won’t bow to the establishment,” Pratt declared at a packed rally, his voice echoing through a sea of supporters clutching homemade signs and chanting his name.
Critics argue his tactics mirror the drama of his television past, yet his followers see a relentless crusader determined to “save the once‑great city.”
As the final votes are counted, the city watches a showdown that could reshape its political landscape, with Pratt promising to keep the pressure on until every ballot is scrutinized.
