MAGA melts down as Dem overtakes Spencer Pratt in LA mayoral primary: ‘This is egregious’
Fans of President Donald Trump's Make America Great Again movement melted down on Sunday after reality TV personality Spencer Pratt fell out of his second-place spot in Los Angeles's mayoral primary race.
Pratt, who ran as a Republican, had held a strong lead against Los Angeles City Councilmember Nithya Raman, a Democrat, in the primary race until Sunday. The Los Angeles Times reported that mail-in ballots were the key reason why Raman was able to make such a large comeback, and the trend seems likely to continue as the state allows mail-in ballots to be counted for several days following an election.
MAGA fans weren't happy to see their favorite candidate lose his lead and shared their reactions on social media.
"Spencer Pratt was robbed. This is egregious," MAGA influencer Laura Loomer posted on X.
"A woman with absolutely zero following, no groundswell of support, and no name ID absolutely killed it in mail-in voting in Los Angeles. It's just the way this state counts ballots, guys!!" Andrew Kolvet, a spokesperson for Turning Point USA, posted on X. "Free PSA: If you don't want us to assume cheating, maybe make it a little less obvious."
"Stolen election in broad daylight," Dana Loesch, a MAGA radio host, posted on X.
"Total. F------. Fraud," Mike Davis, a lawyer for the Article III project, posted on X.
"I feel genuinely terrible for all my Southern California friends who worked so hard. It was always going to go this way because that’s how communism works. Once you vote it in, you can’t vote it out," MAGA pundit Jesse Kelly posted on X.
