What Happened to Spencer Pratt Is Why the Supreme Court Decision on Election DAY Is Key

Late last week, one large tranche of votes included NOT ONE Pratt vote; it looks rigged. The local election officials say it was a glitch and that the next batch to come in, only seconds later, were votes only for Pratt. Interesting. Is that how they count votes in LA?
[PJMedia.com] Spencer Pratt's underdog campaign for Los Angeles mayor is now in limbo. After being in a solid second spot since Election Day Tuesday, Pratt fell to third place behind the two communists who teamed up to elbow the native Angeleno out of the race. As of this writing, Pratt's second-place standing has been eclipsed by Nithya Raman, a far-left city councilwoman. Mayor Karen Bass has won more than 34.68% of the vote and the right to go to the November election and face the runner-up. (Screengrab image: via X-Spencer Pratt)
The races for LA mayor and California governor aren't over yet. Indeed, the rules say the all mail-in votes, postmarked by the government union worker at the Post Office, have to be received by an election official within one week after Election Day and until July 6 when the election must be certified.
There's early voting, late voting, no signature matches, no voter ID.
What does Election Day mean anyway?
Washington State's ridiculous election rules allow mail-in votes to be cured (changed) 21 days after Election Day—and voters are even given early voting privileges. Mississippi, like many other states, changed its voting rules during COVID-19 to give people who were stuck "working" at home, making sourdough bread, and binging Netflix even more time to devote to their voting. Mississippi grants its citizens up to five days after Election Day to get their ballots in. Some states require postmarks and others do not. It's a damned free-for-all. The entire enterprise mocks the sanctity of Election Day.
It's for these reasons that the US Supreme Court decision in the case of Watson v. Republican National Committee will be welcomed when it's expected to be announced on Thursday.

The case stems from Mississippi's election law change during COVID in 2020. The new law extended the time ballots could trickle to five days after Election Day, provided the Post Office gave it the Election Day postmark. The Republican National Committee and Libertarian Party sued, contending that extending Election Day was contrary to the US Constitution.
The Constitution sets forth Election Day as the Tuesday after the first Monday in November. The Constitution sets forth the time, but states choose the place and manner of elections.
In the Supreme Court case's oral arguments in March, several justices mentioned that these extended election days cause mistrust of the process among voters. A person who looks to have won on election night suddenly becomes an also-ran within four days. Better to know on election night and rip off the bandage than slow roll the count.
On Sunday, Raman slid into second place with 27.1% of the vote, eclipsing Pratt's 26.7% with 80% of the vote counted. Pratt says it's not over yet. He reminded Angelenos that the vote isn't certified until July 6.
Raman previously endorsed Bass for mayor and then quickly became a candidate herself when she was pressured to enter the race to ice out the surprisingly surging Pratt from the top two primary.
How fringe is Raman? She campaigned with the Jew hating, Al-Qaida-loving, leftist podcaster Hasan Piker, who said the US deserved 9/11. Wow... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
