Prospects have dimmed for Spencer Pratt, Los Angeles
New York Post ^ | June 5, 2026 | Jon Fleischman

And the latest numbers were a major win for Raman. Going into this update, my estimate was that Raman needed to outperform Pratt by roughly 11 percentage points in the remaining vote to have a realistic chance of catching him.

Instead, she did much better than that. Raman gained 23,115 votes in Friday’s update, compared to 10,711 for Pratt and 20,419 for Bass. In a single ballot drop, Raman netted 12,404 votes on Pratt.

Put another way, she received more than twice as many votes as Pratt in this batch.

It already has gone down hard along with all of California. It will only continue to get worse.

We know it’s being stolen.
We are watching it be stolen.
The Federal government says they know, they are watching, and they are actively investigating.

So, you know, just business as usual. Have fun at the mid-terms. Remember to “vote harder” because it’s so important.

There is no chance that a Republican will be elected in LA. With the ‘jungle primary’ the only two candidates will be democrats. They will count ballots until then. Bass will win.

The California Governor’s race will be split between Dems and Republicans. The Dems will get just slightly more votes than the Republican. After a month of counting when they suddenly find votes.

Blah blah.

LA deserves everything this ‘fix’ is bringing to them.
They made their beds. They can lie in them.

The numbers don't add up.

Raman's city council district population is approximately 272,000 people. That includes children, non-citizens, and non-voters, yielding perhaps 120,000–140,000 registered voters.

Raman currently has 177,102 votes citywide. Where are these votes coming from?

Raman had no real presence on any pre-election polls, she performed poorly in all the televised debates, has run only a district-level campaign, but she's the only person in a position to keep Pratt off the November ballot.

Bass has a city-wide campaign machine, has name recognition, and is the incumbent.

Raman's late-count vote is surging and Bass has flatlined. After Tuesday night's first counts, Raman was +1.3% on Wednesday, +2.6% on Thursday, and +5.2% on Saturday.

Bass had 37% on election night. On Wednesday she had 34.78%. On Thursday she had 35%, and on Saturday she had 34.8%.

If the mail-in ballots are being counted in the order they come in, one would expect a uniform pattern that continues from day to day, but that's not what we're seeing.

The fact that the third place person - and nobody else - is getting the late surge really smells rotten.

The vote surge didn't make sense until I saw your post.

Once they’ve elevated Raman to second place and have the election rigged the way they want, the Democrats will hold up Bass as the more “centrist” and “moderate” of the two, and celebrate her inevitable election as “a victory for common sense”.

In that case, I’d rather see Raman win, just so LA goes completely in the toilet.

Yes, this. And all in the interest of preserving our (cough, cough) “Democracy”.
