Supporters of Republican Spencer Pratt promised the former reality TV star, who wasted $10 million in 2012, would win the open primary on June 2, but he lost to current Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, notes POLITICO:
At Bass’ watch party in Koreatown, where the crowd erupted exuberantly at the first returns, her supporters — city councilmembers and prominent business, labor and party leaders — said the results showed the mayor was stronger than portrayed.
Pratt is running a bizarre campaign in which he lied about Jesus Christ and said he is “cool with” two notorious Los Angeles gangs that have a history of murdering people for decades.
Pratt will face Bass in the fall runoff election.
