Spencer Pratt Accuses California Election System of Systemic Fraud After Mayoral Loss
"How can you secure the money if you can't lock the vault? How can you catch the robbers if you're not allowed to monitor the vault? And how can you even identify if the vault were even robbed in the first place if you can't even count the money?"
About this episode
Host Dave Rubin discusses California's election integrity with former gubernatorial candidate Larry Elder and national security commentator Brian in response to Governor Gavin Newsom's threats to prosecute anyone interfering with California elections at Trump's direction. Elder provides a detailed historical account arguing Democrats have challenged every Republican presidential victory since 2000 without being labeled election deniers, citing Hillary Clinton, John Lewis, and 30 House Democrats who attempted to decertify states. The conversation centers on Spencer Pratt's transformation into an election integrity activist after losing the LA mayoral race despite his opponent Nithia Ramen initially conceding on election night. Pratt now publicly accuses California of operating a 'rigged casino' system. The panel criticizes California's voting procedures, including no voter ID requirements and mail-in ballots that allegedly allow votes to be seen through envelopes. Elder explains the mathematical impossibility of Republican victories in Los Angeles, where GOP registration has dropped from 30% in 1997 to 15% today. Brian advocates for Taiwan's same-day voting model with mandatory ID and transparent counting as a national security standard. The discussion concludes with debate over whether the Trump Department of Justice can successfully investigate and prosecute California election fraud, with acknowledgment that dismantling a decades-old political machine will require patience despite ongoing harm to the system.
