First story I want to get into is the two big races we had yesterday, Brian. We had the LA Mayoral race, and we had the gubernatorial race, right? The primaries. On the Mayoral race, everybody was wondering what was going to happen. For me, I think the biggest superstar that made a big name for herself was Katie Porter. Not for the right reasons, but I think she's got a job at The View. I think she can be a rock star. And but if you look at for the governor race, that's where she was at. But for the Mayoral race, Spencer Pratt, 30.4 percent. Okay, this is within 63 percent of votes. Karen Bass at the lead with 34.8.
Nithya Raman, 22.3. Then it's the rest of the camp. So if it goes like this, Karen Bass for sure is not getting to what she needs, the 51 percent or something like that. So there won't be anything going on. There is gonna be a runoff and it's gonna go till November. And yesterday she tweeted something. She said, I love LA. And you would think the person that was in the lead would get hundreds of thousands of views and likes. Not really, it was a thousand likes. People could care less about the announcement. Look, you may love LA, but we don't love you as much as you think we do.
And so it'll be interesting to see what happens then. Rob, if you have a clip of Spencer Pratt, it was a great picture of him and his wife. Is this him at the end of it one day? Okay, go ahead, Rob.

**Spencer Pratt** (1:44)
Well, obviously God wanted five more months of me exposing all the failures of our mayor. So it's gonna be a fun ride. I hope she's ready.
Are you ready? I mean, I was born for this, clearly.

**SPEAKER_5** (1:59)
I was born for this, clearly. Okay. What do you think, Brian? What do you think are the chances that by the end of it, this guy's got a chance of winning? Spencer Pratt.

**SPEAKER_7** (2:06)
By the way, he's got the greatest commercials ever.

**SPEAKER_5** (2:08)
He does. Yes, he does.

**SPEAKER_7** (2:09)
And he's been very creative. The best thing is that California has been a one-party state forever and ever. And so now that we have a Republican looking like he's gonna be in the final two for governor and for mayor, this is fantastic. And that's what I think Republicans really need, is a platform to be able to share their views rather than just being shut out in a one-party state.

**SPEAKER_5** (2:40)
Tom, how do you feel about it?

**SPEAKER_2** (2:41)
Well, mixed emotions.
One, I'm really happy that now there's an alternative candidate and Angelenos aren't gonna get snowballed in a primary where someone wins 51, we declare victory and that's it. Now there's gonna be, as they say, the jungle primary where there's multiple candidates, that's their word for it, I'm not saying anything derogatory, is now down to two. Now we have a traditional election, left, right, and I like that.
What worries me is Raman at 22%, those socialist voters that are behind her are almost certainly gonna get behind Bass. So right now, Bass sits on about 53, 54, and it's gonna take a decided effort by Spencer Pratt to expose things and to bring that down so that he can be sitting on, you know, 51% come election day. But I'm glad that now all the drama's over, Raman steps aside, we have two candidates, let's debate and let's do many debates. And remember, she and Raman did individual side-by-side debates that excluded Pratt. She can't run anymore, Pat. She can't run.

**SPEAKER_5** (4:01)
Who can't run anymore?

**SPEAKER_2** (4:03)
Karen Bass. She can't run from...
She and Raman did a side-by-side debate and excluded Spencer Pratt. It's over, baby. The Jungle Primary is done. You got to get on stage now and debate, man-o-a-man-o.

**SPEAKER_5** (4:15)
But here's the reality of it. If we look at it today, every one of these votes here on the bottom, pretty much 80% of it would go to Karen Bass, right?
