Harvey Levin Predicts Spencer Pratt Will Win 38% in LA Primary as Poll Shows 22%

Summary
38% is Harvey Levin’s forecast for Spencer Pratt in Tuesday’s Los Angeles mayoral primary, with Levin also predicting Pratt will face Mayor Karen Bass in a November runoff.
A Berkeley IGS poll released Thursday shows a much tighter race: Bass at 26%, City Councilmember Nithya Raman at 25% and Pratt at 22% among likely voters.
Pratt’s insurgent bid has gained traction amid anger over homelessness and the 2025 wildfires, which thrust the 42-year-old Republican into politics after his home burned in the Palisades fire.
TMZ has amplified that rise with near-daily coverage, while the Murdoch-owned California Post endorsed Pratt and right-wing figures including Donald Trump and Joe Rogan have praised him.
Even with the media boost, Pratt faces steep general-election headwinds in a county where Republicans account for less than 20% of registered voters and Hollywood skepticism remains strong.
