Spencer Pratt had a big night on Wednesday at theLA mayoral debate.
First, he showed voters the passion he feels for change. Yes, that passion is driven by personal loss — the fact that hishome in Pacific Palisades burned downin the January 2025 fire.
But likemany fire victims, Pratt has also learned, as he and his family have tried to rebuild, that LA’s dysfunction isn’t limited to empty reservoirs and underfunded fire departments.
He made the case Wednesday that the fire is a symptom of a bigger problem that he wants to change.
Second, Pratt shows that he knows about a lot more than the fire.
From policing to homeless policy to Hollywood tax credits, Pratt — a total newcomer to politics — was able to engage on the full spectrum of issues facing the city.
It’s more than many anticipated from the reality TV star.
The key factor in debates is not who gave the best answers, but who beat expectations.
By that standard, Spencer Pratt won — by a landslide.
Whether that helps him in the June 2 primary remains to be seen.
