Spencer Pratt CLOSING THE GAP in new LA mayoral poll

[0:04] A NEW POLL SHOWING SPENCER PRATT WITHIN STRIKING DISTANCE IN THE L.A. MAYORAL RACE, [0:09] AND HE TOLD FOX AND FRIENDS EARLIER THIS WEEK HOW HE'S APPEALING TO ALL VOTERS. [0:16] I'M A REGISTERED REPUBLICAN, BUT MY SUPPORTERS ARE ALL DEMOCRATS. [0:19] ALL I FOCUS ON IS THE TRUTH. I'M THE LOOK AROUND CANDIDATE. [0:24] I DO BASICS. I DON'T DO NATIONAL POLITICS. I DON'T DO PARTIES. I JUST SAY, [0:28] LOOK, THEY'RE STEALING ALL OF OUR TAX MONEY TO GIVE IT TO DRUG ADDICTS. [0:32] I HAVE REPUBLICANS THAT LOVE ME. I HAVE DEMOCRATS THAT LOVE ME. [0:35] I HAVE INDEPENDENTS THAT LOVE ME. EVEN SOME SOCIALIST MESSAGE ME AND THEY'RE LIKE, HEY, [0:39] DON'T BE SO MEAN TO US. WE LIKE YOU TOO. I'M LIKE, SORRY, I DON'T MESS WITH SOCIALISTS. [0:44] HERE TO REACT IS FIX CALIFORNIA SENIOR ADVISOR AND FORMER DHS SPOKESWOMAN KATIE ZACHARIAH. [0:50] SO AWESOME TO HAVE YOU IN PERSON IN STUDIO. SO WHAT IS IT ABOUT SPENCER PRATT'S CAMPAIGN THAT IS [0:57] APPEALING TO SUCH A BROAD SECTION OF PEOPLE? HE'S REALLY RUNNING A NON-PARTISAN RACE, RIGHT? [1:03] HE IS OFFERING PRACTICAL SOLUTIONS. I FLED BRENTWOOD, CALIFORNIA. [1:08] THE ISSUES HE'S TALKING ABOUT HOMELESSNESS, CRIME, SURGING, JUST PROBLEMS, [1:12] ISSUES WITH STREETLIGHTS, ISSUES WITH THE ROADS, THESE ARE PRACTICAL PROBLEMS THAT HE HAS PRACTICAL [1:17] SOLUTIONS FOR. AND KAREN BASS HAS YET TO FIX ANY OF THESE. [1:20] ONE THING IS THE RESERVOIR THAT'S STILL UNFILLED. [1:23] IT'S 117 MILLION GALLON RESERVOIR. AND SHE HAS YET TO FILL IT IN 400, 500 DAYS SINCE THE [1:30] PALISADES FIRE PASSED. SO SPENCER PRATT IS JUST ON THE SPEARHEADING THE PRACTICAL SOLUTIONS. [1:35] AND OF COURSE KAREN BASS, LONGTIME DEMOCRAT OPERATIVE IN CALIFORNIA. [1:40] SHE'S THE INCUMBENT IN A DEMOCRAT CITY, IN A DEMOCRAT STATE, BEEN ENDORSED BY THE DEMOCRAT [1:46] GOVERNOR. AND SHE'S SITTING AT 26% AND HE'S JUST STATISTICALLY INSIGNIFICANTLY BEHIND HER. [1:55] YEAH. AND LOOK, KAREN BASS, THE FACT THAT SHE HASN'T BEEN HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE PROBLEM SHE'S [2:01] CREATED JUST SHOWS WHAT A STRONG HOLD THE ESTABLISHMENT DEMOCRATS HAVE OVER OUR CITY AND OVER OUR STATE. [2:07] WE EVEN HAVE A CITY COUNCILMAN RIGHT NOW PROPOSING THAT ILLEGAL ALIENS VOTE IN OUR [2:13] CITYWIDE ELECTIONS. AND THIS IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST ISSUES THAT YOU HAVE IN CALIFORNIA. [2:16] WITHOUT VOTER I.D., WITHOUT ANY KIND OF REGULATION ON WHO'S COMING TO THE POLLS, [2:21] IT IS VERY DIFFICULT FOR A REPUBLICAN TO WIN LOS ANGELES OR STATEWIDE. [2:26] SO I WANT TO TOUCH ON THAT. LET'S BE VERY REALISTIC ABOUT THIS. [2:29] OBVIOUSLY 22% FOR PRATT IN THIS POLL. OTHER POLLS HAVE SHOWN SIMILAR SUCCESS. [2:35] THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE SUCCESS IN A THREE-WAY RACE. [2:39] BUT IT'S STILL AN UPHILL CLIMB FOR HIM. [2:43] IT'S AN UPHILL CLIMB BECAUSE BY JUNE 2ND, WHEN THE CALIFORNIA PRIMARY IS, [2:47] THIS COMING TUESDAY WHEN THE CALIFORNIA PRIMARY HAPPENS, [2:49] THE TOP TWO ADVANCE TO NOVEMBER. UNLESS SOMEONE MAKES IT OVER THE 50% THRESHOLD. [2:54] SO SPENCER PRATT NEEDS TO BE IN THOSE TOP TWO. [2:57] SO THAT IS WHERE HE'S GOING TO APPEAL TO THE INDEPENDENT VOTERS. [3:00] THE DAY OF VOTERS ARE GOING TO HOPEFULLY GO TO THE POLLS, GO OVER POT HOLES AS THEY'RE GOING [3:04] THERE, HAVE BROKEN STREET LIGHTS AND THINK, MAN, KAREN BASS ISN'T DOING IT. [3:08] LET'S GO TO SPENCER PRATT. [3:09] AND DO YOU FEEL CONFIDENT THAT IF HE DOES MAKE IT INTO THOSE TWO [3:13] IN A HEAD-TO-HEAD MATCH WITH EITHER ONE OF THOSE, HE COULD ACTUALLY WIN? [3:17] SO THAT'S A VERY DIFFICULT QUESTION WITHOUT VOTER I.D. [3:20] AND I KEEP GOING BACK TO IT BECAUSE REPUBLICANS HAVE A TOUGH UPHILL BATTLE. [3:24] YEAH, SO I WANT TO GET TO THE SECOND THING REAL QUICKLY. [3:27] TOM STEIER, WHO OF COURSE IS A BILLIONAIRE RUNNING FOR GOVERNOR, [3:32] HAS POSTED A VIDEO SHOWING, VOWING TO PROTECT TRANS YOUTH. WATCH THIS. [3:41] YOU'RE SET ON JUST BASICALLY A SET CHOICE ON WHERE YOU STAND WITH TRANS ATHLETES. [3:47] I AM. [3:47] IT'S THE JOB OF THE GOVERNOR TO STAND BETWEEN DANGER AND CALIFORNIANS. [3:50] AND TO PROTECT THEM FROM ALL THE MALIGN INFLUENCES IN THIS WORLD. [3:54] AND I'M SO PROUD OF YOU FOR WHAT YOU'RE DOING. [3:56] THANK YOU. [3:56] SO PROUD OF YOU FOR SUCCEEDING. [3:58] SO PROUD OF YOU FOR COMPETING. [4:00] AND I'M GOING TO HOPE LIKE HECK THAT YOU DON'T JUST MAKE STATE, [4:04] BUT YOU DO REALLY WELL THERE. [4:06] SO TOM STEIER SEES A BIOLOGICAL MALE COMPETING IN GIRLS SPORTS AND VOWS TO PROTECT THE BIOLOGICAL MALE. [4:14] AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP'S EXECUTIVE ORDER GETTING MEN OUT OF WOMEN'S SPORTS. [4:18] AND AS WE SEE THIS COMING JUNE, [4:20] THE SUPREME COURT WILL BE REVIEWING AND HOPEFULLY ISSUING A CASE ON TITLE IX. [4:23] SO TOM STEIER MIGHT BE OUT OF LINE WITH FEDERAL LAW OR INCOMING FEDERAL LAW. [4:27] BUT THAT IS ALSO OUT OF TOUCH WITH THE CALIFORNIA VOTER. [4:30] EVEN GAVIN NEWSOM WALKED BACK HIS SUPPORT FOR BIOLOGICAL MALE COMPETING IN FEMALE SPORTS [4:36] BECAUSE HE KNOWS AS IN HIS WORDS, IT'S INHERENTLY UNFAIR. [4:39] BUT, SARAH, THE TOP CONTENDER RIGHT NOW FOR THE DEMOCRATS IN THE GUBERNATORIAL RACE [4:43] STILL HAS NOT ISSUED A DECISIVE STATEMENT ON THIS. [4:47] SO STEIER HAS REALLY TAKEN A DIVERGENT PATH AND I THINK IT'S GOING TO BECOME HIGHLY [4:51] UNPOPULAR AS HE NEARS THE ELECTION. [4:54] ESPECIALLY HAVING TO GET INTO THE GENERAL ELECTION FROM THAT. [4:57] AND YOU WONDER WHY SPENCER PRATT IS DOING SO WELL IN A PLACE LIKE CALIFORNIA, [5:01] IT'S BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE TOM STEIER. [5:03] KATIE ZACHARIA, IT'S SO GREAT TO SEE YOU IN PERSON. [5:05] THANK YOU.
