Spencer Pratt Loses Lead + Trump's 'Meet The Press' Walk Off

What was said

"California allows first-time voters to register using forms of ID that most Americans would find surprising, including gym membership card. In California, you can actually vote with your Bally Total Fitness card."

During discussion of the Los Angeles mayoral race, hosts revealed that California's official state website lists health club identification cards among acceptable forms of ID for voter registration. This was initially mentioned as a joke but was confirmed on the california.gov website. The revelation comes amid allegations of election irregularities in the LA mayoral race where candidate Spencer Pratt lost an 8-point lead days after the election as mail-in ballots continued to be counted.
