Spencer Pratt has seemingly conceded the Los Angeles mayoral race, announcing in a video that the "campaign portion" of his mission is concluding. However, he immediately declared "war" on the two candidates who will advance to the city's general election: incumbent Mayor Karen Bass and progressive city councilmember Nithya Raman.
Pratt, a Republican running in a predominantly Democratic city, did not contest the election results, a stance that contrasts with Donald Trump's unfounded claims of a "rigged" election. Trump had previously endorsed Pratt.
