Are They Stealing the Los Angeles Primary?
Hotair ^ | 06/04/2026 | David Strom

Posted on 06/04/2026 9:07:01 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

Nobody believes that Karen Bass is indifferent to whether she faces Nithya Raman or Spencer Pratt as her opponent in November.

Raman is a weak candidate, and every Democrat wants Spencer Pratt out of the race for obvious reasons, not the least of which is that anybody but a leftist on the ballot is an atrocity in their eyes. When Raman collapsed after the sole mayoral debate, Raman's polling and chances of victory, which were considered good, nosedived into single-digit territory.

On election night, nobody was shocked that Pratt had closed the gap with Bass, just as nobody was surprised that Raman came in a distant third, as the polls suggested.

But California doesn't have election nights. They have counting weeks, where vote totals change as batches of votes trickle in, and those batches show an amazing pattern: there are almost no votes for Spencer Pratt, which is nearly impossible statistically.

There is literally nothing California could do to make their elections less secure.

Mail in ballots and No ID.

Weeks of counting with no real chain of custody.

The fraud is staggering.

No matter how much you believe that Democrats are somewhat more likely to vote by mail than Republicans, the difference is not THAT much, especially since Republicans have become much more likely to vote by mail.

California sends out ballots to all registered voters, and of course doesn't clean its voter rolls because that is Jim Crow 2.0. You can register to vote online without any proof of citizenship or residency, and without a Social Security number. You can just check a box that you have neither a DL nor a Social Security number, which is practically impossible.

Los Angeles county celebrates the fact that it takes nearly a month to count votes for the primary.

It’s not a bug.

It’s feature for democrats https://t.co/foUasy14OQ— Kevin Dalton (@TheKevinDalton) June 3, 2026

p>Even babies get Tax IDs now. But not voters, apparently. Just request a ballot, and poof, you have one mailed to you, even if your address is a mailbox business. 

Red flag… 🚩🚩🚩

39.3% vote in…
Karen Bass had 117,579
Spencer Pratt had 86,323

42.4% vote in…
Karen Bass 130,429
Spencer Pratt 86,323

Virtually every candidate received votes except for Spencer Pratt. Impossible.

Homeless shelters have hundreds of voters listed as residents, most of whom haven't been there in years. They pile up and get harvested by...nobody knows who. 

I caught them cheating and now they’re desperately trying to explain it.

Community notes on this post:
“It is possible for one candidate to receive no additional votes in a specific batch.”

This is Mathematically impossible when it comes to a batch of tens of thousands of of votes. Every single candidate (Dem and Rep) recorded votes except for Spencer Pratt.

Democrats have told us that it takes weeks to count ballots because their elections are so secure, which is interesting, because every developed country in the world counts their ballots in hours, not weeks. 

As long as they’re counting ballots after Election Day in California, it only means one thing: Spencer Pratt and Steve Hilton are out of the runoffs for LA Mayor and Governor.

In fact, Gavin Newsom confirmed it just two weeks ago.

When asked about the possibility of ending up with two Republican candidates for governor and no Democrats, he said:

We will have to topple the state government of California, and that is exactly what the Democrats are going to do.

“We all have agencies. We can shape the future. I don’t anticipate this being the case, but there is a ‘break the glass scenario.’ There are many people who have a deep understanding of what it would look like if Democrats were locked out, and we’re going to do everything to make sure that doesn’t happen. I’ll leave it there.”

It's not just Republicans who think that the vote is being rigged. Bettors on the prediction markets swung heavily against Spencer Pratt AFTER he came in second, as anticipated, but they watched the hinky ballot drops. They now predict he will be booted off the ballot, despite his still being substantially ahead of Raman in the vote count. 

Wait.

Pratt's 40K+ votes AHEAD of Raman are a 'slim lead' while Bass only leads Pratt by 20K?

Explain that to me like I was five... https://t.co/uxOT0BPzXS— tree hugging sister 🎃 (@WelbornBeege) June 3, 2026

On the day of the election, the prediction was that Pratt had an approximately 25% chance of winning the election, and Raman single digits, reflecting the bet that he would be on the ballot in November. The numbers are reversed now. 

Pratt's chances fell like a rock. After the vote counting showed him up big over Raman. Everybody knows why. It was those vote dumps, and the realization that all those harvested ballots will pour in for Bass and Raman. Especially Raman.

Pratt is still ahead of Raman, but most people now think the fix is in. The "break glass" scenario that Newsom talked about is coming to pass. 

If Democrats cared a whit about how any of this looks, they would work to reassure voters that the process is fair. They know that it looks corrupt, and that a perception of corruption undermines legitimacy in the eyes of the losers. That's why even Ecuador uses hand-counted paper ballots in front of representatives from all the parties. Because confidence in elections is almost as important as fairness in elections. 

Countries that operate under democratic principles work hard to ensure transparency in election procedures. When Americans monitor foreign elections, they are only certified fair when everything is transparent. 

There is nothing transparent about California elections. Democrats just don't care, because as Newsom put it:

“We all have agencies. We can shape the future. I don’t anticipate this being the case, but there is a ‘break the glass scenario.’ There are many people who have a deep understanding of what it would look like if Democrats were locked out, and we’re going to do everything to make sure that doesn’t happen. I’ll leave it there.”

Sounds like Maduro, doesn't it?

Don't worry, though. Every Pravda outlet will spend countless hours explaining how the election really WAS fair, even though it looks hinky. 

Trust us, they will say. We are sharp as a tack.

According to ChatGPT the chances of a candidate polling at 30% to receive zero votes from a drop of around 24,000 votes is:

1 chance in 10^{3,718}.

That’s a decimal point followed by 3,717 zeros before the first nonzero digit.

Before the election even started I said no republican would make the runoff because of the cheating system in California. Look no further back than 2024 when they flipped four congressional seats by counting votes a month after election day until they had enough.

“Are They Stealing the Los Angeles Primary?”

LOL! Of course not. CA politics are as pure as the driven snow.

The cheat machine is so dependable that it’s doubtful it can be turned around.

If by some miracle Hilton were to win, as governor he could make some changes statewide. That would require that the legislative bodies supported him. Which they won’t.

Folks should have paid attention to LA’s last mayoral, the one where Bass beat the guy who later saved his property from the wildfires.

That election was a preview of coming attractions.

and with all this, and the nationwide and international fraudulent payments, etc etc. there are still posters who will write “they voted for this.”

No, no they didn’t. I’m absolutely convinced there are no states where the actual live eligible voters of X actually vote for these communists.

America’s got Talent can counts and tabulate tens of millions of votes in a fraction of an hour.
The largest city in the country can’t count tens of millions of votes in 2 weeks.
Fraud?
You decide.

++++++++

Was not the test run for this post election - election scheme in 2018? As I recall, and I am not from CA, the repubs were doing fairly well in the house races and then in the weeks after NOV election day. 9 or 10 seats switched to the donks.

Gov. Gavin Newsom said he has a secret “break the glass” plan to prevent California from electing a Republican governor. He recently signed a law that states mail in ballots signatures do not have to match.
SB73 Section 3. Clause F reads : (f) A vote by mail voter observer shall not be permitted to challenge a signature on a vote by mail ballot return envelope pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 3019, or on statements completed pursuant to subdivisions (d) and (e) of Section 3019, on the basis that they believe the signature does not compare with the signatures appearing in the voter’s registration record.

There’s no election integrity in California.

❌ Mail in ballots to every Californian and even if you moved state, you’ll still get a ballot.
❌ signatures do not need to match
❌ unsecured drop boxes that get vandalized and set on fire
❌ months of counting with ballots being flown in by helicopter.
❌ No voter ID
❌ “Honor system” for voter registration.

Until election integrity is addressed we will never have a balanced state.

Of course Bass will win in the general. The goal is to keep a Republican off the ballot.

With no republicans at the top of the ticket, conservative voters will feel it’s useless to even vote. On election night Steve Hilton received 215,000 votes from LA.

It’s the down ballot congressional races that are the brass ring and Pratt is the linchpin.They MUST keep him off the ballot.

There is really only one way to get that boot off our necks... once it’s there. And sadly, most on our side of this battle are unwilling to take the necessary measures...

so far.

There will come a time when the radical left will over-reach in their tyranny (they always do). They will experience many wielded swords on that day. Only God knows the outcome of that conflict.

Spencer Pratt is the obvious choice for Republicans and fed-up Democrats.

Karen Bass [incompetent Commie] and Nithya Raman [rabid Commie] are both awful. A Democrat is very likely to have a hard time deciding which one is less awful. Ballots for them will tend to come in later.
