Idaho adopted no-excuse mail-in voting in 1972. Washington did it in 1974. California in 1978. Iowa in 1990. Arizona, Wyoming and Vermont in 1991. Nebraska in 1997. Oregon in 1998. Wisconsin and Florida did it in 2001. NC in 2002. Ohio in 2005. Georgia, Illinois, and NJ in 2006.
I’m a Trumper because I think people should vote in person (or have a reason if they don’t)? This was standard pretty much everywhere in America before Trump

So, Spencer Pratt did not win his own district - CD11, which includes the Palisades. But he cleaned up in Bel Air.
An updated table. Mayoral and Gov race results, side by side, in LA Council Districts. Interesting ones: CD 4 Raman ended up winning her own seat CD 5 is still Pratt / Steyer 🤪 CD 12 is only Pratt / Hilton

Washington Post editorial board weighs in on LA mayoral race and inaccurately asserts a talking point that has been bandied about X over the last week: that Nithya Raman conceded on election night. That didn’t happen. washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

In 2024, Kamala Harris got 70% of the vote in L.A., and Trump got 26%. In this year's mayoral election, the two top Democratic candidates got 63% and the Republican candidate got 26%. That's as ordinary and unsurprising a result as you could imagine. There's nothing about this election that suggests fraud. The fact that candidates' vote shares rose and fell as more votes were counted is not only not improbable, it's expected. People suggesting otherwise are innumerate.

This is grotesquely irresponsible. Why do Republicans think a scandal-ridden reality-TV star was going to perform well in one of the bluest districts in the nation in a likely blue year? They liked his AI videos? I hate the way California counts ballots, but claims of fraud requires evidence of fraud, not outcomes you don't like.
RAJU: But what evidence is there to prove the California election is rigged? MIKE JOHNSON: Look, some of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream it's impossible to prove. But I think everybody knows instinctively that something is wrong here.

Beverly Hills post office. But I am Los Angeles county. I realize everything obviously
Local man does not realize that the city he lives in has its own mayor and police department.

As I keep saying, this is not a serious individual.
Spencer Pratt on Fox News describes Gov. Newsom and Mayor Bass as "alleged criminal partners" and says "they both should be in jail together"

Can we be done with the pretense that Republican primary voters vote for MAGA candidates in spite of their apostasy and corruption? The transgression is a feature, not a bug. It tells voters they don't care about law or morality. Only power.

Anyone who prays to God to destroy his opponents, or refers to other humans as "demonic entities," clearly doesn't understand the first thing about spirituality or faith.
ā€œBefore the debate all day long, I'm praying to Jesus,ā€ Spencer Pratt tells VF. ā€œI’m on my knees like, ā€˜God, if you want me to be the mayor, have me destroy these two demonic entities that are representing themselves as city officials. And if you don't want me to be mayor, God, I'll know right after the debate.’ After I walked off that stage, I was like, ā€˜okay, God, I see you. You want me to be the mayor of LAā€™ā€ vanityfair.com/news/story/sp…
