Spencer Pratt strikes bold pose in downtown Los Angeles with powerful one-word message to voters

Spencer Pratt is sending a message, to all of the people across Los Angeles frustrated with the ridiculously slow process in counting votes.

The mayoral candidate posted a series of vanity shots on X Friday of himself standing outside the Los Angeles Mayor’s Office, located inside Los Angeles City Hall in downtown LA.

The caption was simple and deliberate: “Patience.”

The images project a candidate ready for hard work.

Pratt, dressed in a dark blue suit with a light blue button-up shirt, stares straight into the camera in two of the shots, wearing a stern, focused expression. In another frame, he’s seen walking in front of City Hall, appearing to pace as if he’s eager for the next phase of the race. 

With about 64% of the expected votes in Thursday night, Karen Bass holds 35.1%, Pratt trails at 29.4%, and Raman stands at 23.4%.

But the betting markets are painting a tougher picture for Pratt.

Kalshi currently gives Raman a 79% chance of advancing to the November runoff, while Pratt is given just a 24% shot.

Interestingly, the man holding the keys to Los Angeles County’s vote count has spent much of his career in controversy.

Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk Dean Logan, who has faced scrutiny and criticism stemming from several high-profile election disputes in multiple states, is once again facing hostility as at least 300,000 ballots remain uncounted.

Despite the odds, Pratt has remained laser-focused on a platform built around wildfire recovery and crisis leadership, homelessness and crime crackdowns, fiscal accountability and audits and public safety.
