Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee, it's America's favorite gun-toting, Bible-clanging, deplorable American. Todd Stars.

Well, hello everybody. Happy Monday to you America. Good to have you with us. This is the Todd Starnes radio show broadcasting border to border, coast to coast across the fruited plain. Well, we have a lot happening today. Man, was it a crazy weekend or what? All sorts of crazy news stories happening. Of course, the big one and the one that we shall start off with today happening in California. Folks, this is no surprise. We saw this unfold over the past, well, two weeks now, beginning week two. The votes are still being counted in California and it may take them a couple of more weeks to count all of the ballots, but it really doesn't matter because now the Democrats have gathered enough ballots to push Spencer Pratt out of the mayor's race in Los Angeles. And it's only gonna get worse.
Now I'm a little concerned over Steve Hilton because those numbers are getting a little tight. Javier Becerra now taking the lead and Tom Steyer, the billionaire, is gaining ground. He's in third place and Steve Hilton now in second place. Now, Spencer Pratt, this is what's really mind boggling about Spencer Pratt. So what you've got about 2.2 million registered voters in Los Angeles, maybe about 700,000, 800,000, if you're lucky, maybe 700,000 or 800,000 would vote on election day. They still haven't counted all of those votes. But here's what you need to know. So Spencer Pratt has been far ahead of the third place finisher in the race. Her name is, she's a city councilwoman. Her name is Neitha Robin. And look, her defeat on election night was so bad. It was so bad that she got up in front of God and country and just wept, talking about how, you know, she was so distraught over losing. Well, now she has surged. She's in second place and she very well may surpass Karen Bass, who is the incumbent mayor. So here's what you need to know. This is all statistically impossible. If you're looking at the numbers and the statistics, this is absolutely impossible, which is why we know it's a steal. That's what the Democrats are doing. It is an outright steal. As a matter of fact, the California Post had the following headline in all caps, Electile Dysfunction.
That's what it is. So I want you to understand, since Tuesday, Neetha Raman has had a net swing of more than 43,000 votes, which is it's just impossible.
Now, look at this. These are the numbers of mail-in ballots arriving before election day. Karen Bass got 38 percent of those votes. Spencer Pratt got 27 percent and Raman got 20 percent. Now, the mail-ins after election day, Raman got 37 percent, Bass got 34 percent and Pratt just 19 percent. Are you following what's happening here, folks? This is a flat out steal. That's what's going on here. By the way, just to show you how absurd all of this is, Neetha Raman did not even win her own council district.
That's how bad this is. So look, there's really no other way to say this, that the Democrats and what makes me upset about all of this is not that the Democrats are trying to steal the election, which is, yeah, OK, we expected to do that. They're not even trying to cover up what they're doing. They're not even being clever about it. Now, this all goes back to something that Gavin Newscombe said. You might remember this. What is that about a month or so ago when Steve Hilton was surging in the polls and you had Chad Bianco, the Republican sheriff from Riverside County, California. He was surging in the polls. And there was a lot of concern at the time that the top two vote getters in the gubernatorial race would in fact be Republicans. And of course, in California, the top two vote getters, regardless of party, advanced to the general election. And what was it that Newscombe said? Newscombe sat back and he had this little devious grin on his face. And he said, no, no, no, no, he says, not going to happen. But if it does, but if it does, we have that break the glass moment. We have a plan. We have a break the glass moment plan. That's what Gavin Newscombe said.
Now you have to be asking what exactly was the plan? What was the plan? Now we know the Justice Department is investigating all of this. And honestly, I'm not sure there's anything they're going to be able to do. I mean, I think if we knew this was going to happen, look, a big part of this could have been resolved had the Senate stepped in and just passed the Save America Act. At least that way, we would have known exactly who was voting in these. But right now, we don't know. We don't know who's right and it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter because there's not much we can do about it right now. I want you to just to put this in the context, the nation of India.
