Yeah that guy was neither drunk nor an LA voter … he did storm the capitol on Jan. 6 and get thrown onto Pico Blvd by Pratt’s security team, tho! Here’s the inside scoop: latimes.com/california/newsl…

HILARIOUS: Drunk LA voters to NBC News NOW on why Spencer Pratt is the best candidate for mayor....
"[H]e's speaking out against communism and socialism, and it is a real big problem in our cities, especially in LA, where it's turned to crap. It's not an accident. They're doing it by design. Karen Bass wants to destroy our city, and it's nice to see someone like Spencer Pratt."
"I can simplify it because those buzzwords are, like, they -- they -- they -- they melt the brains of, like, left, you know, leaning people. So, let's just say it this way. He doesn't want you -- a human feces to be a part of your life. Yeah. He doesn't want homeless children outside."
"Oh, you don't like that? Oh!"
"She ran away!"
"When you have homeless people outside of the elementary having sex..."

“Mellis described himself as “ultra-MAGA” to The Times and, pre-shove, said he didn’t mind that Pratt was distancing himself from the MAGA movement as he campaigns for votes in the Democratic stronghold of Los Angeles.” latimes.com/california/newsl…

NEW: There was NOT a batch of L.A. mayor votes with zero votes for Pratt.
But there was a "lag in an automated update" to @AP vote tallies that split the batch and updated Bass & Raman's votes about a minute before updating Pratt's.

How does signature verification work in L.A. County?
First, ballots are quickly scanned by a computer that matches the signature with signatures that are on file.
If the computer recognizes a signature, then the ballot moves on to be counted.
If it doesn’t, the ballot is then closely scrutinized by a human being who determines if it matches.
If they determine it doesn’t, that voter is contacted by the county and has 10 days to show up and “cure” their ballot.
If they don’t, the ballot isn’t counted.

Honest and sincere questions: Does signature verification actually verify that the voters are actual people qualified to vote in California? If so how is that done?

One of the most striking precinct-level results comes from the Palisades.
The burn line along Sunset/Chautauqua also serves as a precinct boundary. Both are typically blue, but Pratt leads 61% in the fire-devastated precinct vs. 36% in the adjacent one, which was largely spared.

Diehard Spencer Pratt supporters and a few local legends who didn’t make the list for Pratt’s watch party made the rounds doing media interviews and gathered at a Mexican bar next door. They began cheering as early results trickled in.

Around 10:20, Spencer Pratt emerged from his election night party to talk with reporters.
“Well, obviously God wanted five more months of me exposing all the failures of our mayor, so it’s gonna be a fun ride,” he said. “I hope she’s ready.”

I ask the L.A. Mayoral candidates for closing arguments?
@KarenBassLA: "We've brought down homelessness for the first time 2 years in a row...42,000 units of housing...crime rates to 60 years low."
@nithyavraman: "Angelenos are feeling the city is moving in the wrong direction...what I'm offering is urgency."
@spencerpratt: "My opponents are the reason the city is failing. Anything they say is just more lies. They know with me we're changing what's going on...I don't have the experience of failing like they have."

At the same time, the state is on track to allocate the majority of a $1.5 billion fund from a voter-approved climate bond within just three years. Many wildfire safety advocates support spending the money quickly, but it leaves little for future years.
