Nithya Raman Advances to Los Angeles Mayoral Runoff, Defeating Spencer Pratt
Progressive city councilmember Nithya Raman said she was “incredibly honored” and pledged to fight for a healthier, safer, and more joyful Los Angeles after edging out Republican Spencer Pratt in the primary.
Raman secured 28.5% of the vote, surpassing Pratt’s 25.8%, according to the Los Angeles County Registrar‑Recorder/County Clerk. She will now face incumbent Mayor Karen Bass in the November runoff.
“I’m incredibly honored that voters have given us the opportunity to advance to the general election for Mayor of Los Angeles,” Raman posted on X. “Now our fight for a healthier, safer, more affordable, and more joyful Los Angeles continues.”
Mayor Bass, who also qualified for the runoff, announced on X that “LA rejected Spencer Pratt and the MAGA agenda.” Her campaign later issued a statement acknowledging Raman’s advance and emphasizing their intent to win the upcoming contest.
