Republican Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt posted a video on Friday acknowledging his campaign is now over, but promising to release compromising recordings or perhaps video footage that will cause Mayor Karen Bass and/or Councilwoman Nithya Raman to “resign in shame.”
Bass, a Democrat, and Raman, a Democratic socialist, were the top two finishers in the Los Angeles mayoral jungle primary last week, meaning they will advance to November’s general election.
Raman overcame nearly a double-digit deficit to Pratt on election night to be declared the second place winner earlier this week after mail-in ballots broke strongly in her favor, over both Bass and Pratt.
In his Friday video, Pratt said he was moving on from the LA mayor’s race to what he labeled as “Phase III” in his post on X.
“Angelinos are now stuck with two morons responsible for all their problems, and they have to choose between Dumb and Dumber. That’s not a choice. That’s the machine protecting the machine, and now every problem that plagues Los Angeles because of these two corrupt communists is going to accelerate,” he said.
