Spencer Pratt just received an important endorsement in the Los Angeles mayoral race from The California Post, a major news outlet. This backing marks a significant step for the reality TV star-turned-politician.
The publication pointed out that after losing his family home in the Palisades Fire, Pratt became a political contender. His experiences with the slow rebuilding process transformed him from a frustrated resident into someone eager to take action.
The California Post argued that Pratt’s grassroots campaign could not be reduced to mere wildfire outrage. Instead, he’s demonstrated a solid understanding of the everyday concerns facing Angelenos, showing a commitment to addressing the city’s systemic issues.
In their endorsement, the outlet labeled Pratt as the most “pragmatic” choice in a race they criticize for being filled with “incompetence” and “ideological idiocy.” They highlighted his focus on critical issues that resonate with working-class citizens.

Key issues mentioned include homelessness, rising crime rates, deteriorating infrastructure, dwindling water supplies, and the persistent corruption at City Hall. The endorsement called attention to the challenges facing the city, such as tax increases and job losses in Hollywood, which have driven many residents to leave.
The California Post also indicated that Los Angeles has been stagnant under a one-party system for decades. They praised former Mayor Richard Riordan as the last effective leader, stating that the city has experienced a decline under subsequent administrations, including Karen Bass.
Ultimately, the publication positioned Pratt as the best candidate for instigating necessary change in City Hall, urging voters to support his campaign.
