Democrats are clearly very upset about Spencer Pratt's campaign and the possibility that he may be heading to the runoff in November for Los Angeles mayor.
If we didn't already know that from the desperate attacks by the current mayor, Karen Bass, and the other opponent in the race, city council member Nithya Raman, we would know it from the meltdown Jimmy Kimmel had on his show this week about Pratt.
Kimmel's freaking out about @spencerpratt:

"It could take a while for Democrats here in Los Angeles to figure out which of their friends secretly voted for Spencer Pratt. Barring a late ballot buzzer-beater, it appears Mayor Karen Bass will advance to a runoff against the former reality show villain."
"Sixty percent of the vote has been counted. If that holds, it means in November Los Angelenos are going to have to choose between a woman named Karen and a man who is one."
"This is insane. We should be very embarrassed. Spencer Pratt should not be a top-two finalist for mayor. He should be DJing the worst New Year’s Eve party in Reno right now. He’s unlikely to win. In fact, he’s already filming a reality show about his run for mayor, so he definitely has his priorities in order."
Is it being a "Karen" to call out poop in the streets, to point out crime and homelessness, and how the Democrats have failed? Those are things any normal person would be concerned about. It says a lot about Democrats that they're not, and that they haven't solved these basic quality of life issues. If being concerned about that is being a "Karen," then bring on the "Karens" (we need more of them).
Then, too, imagine Kimmel having the nerve to talk about anyone being embarrassing. He's right; he should be embarrassed at the positions he's supported and the fact that he's sacrificed any real humor for the sake of being a Democratic sycophant.
Spencer Pratt had the perfect response to Kimmel's whining, posting an image of Kimmel in blackface from "The Man Show" in the early 2000s, when he impersonated former NBA star Karl Malone.

Frankly, Pratt was being kind; he could have dropped a boatload of things
We should also note the joke Jimmy Kimmel made about the time it takes to count the ballots in that clip above. You don't have election day, you have election weeks. It's not a joke; it's ridiculous, and they need to do something to rectify the system, or you wouldn't get in people like Pratt, who want to change the system. As we reported, the Department of Justice is looking into some of the questions.

With the ballot drops since Tuesday, the numbers in the mayoral race have gotten closer between Pratt and Raman, the person currently in third. On Tuesday night, Pratt was up about 40,000 votes. Now, Bass is at 215,868 (35 percent), Pratt is at 174, 260 (28.2 percent), and Raman is at 153,588 (24.9 percent).
