'“Are they done counting yet?” Pratt'

 Spencer Pratt made a pointed comment about the LA mayoral race results as he has yet to concede or contest the outcome.

“Are they done counting yet?” Pratt wrote in a comment on X.

The former reality TV star has not yet directly addressed his loss to left-wing Councilwoman Nithya Raman, who defeated Pratt and will now face incumbent Mayor Karen Bass in the November runoff.

Pratt, who was endorsed by President Donald Trump, overperformed on election night, leading the Democratic Socialists of America-backed candidate by at least eight points.

However, he soon began to lose his lead as more mail-in ballots, which tend to favor Democrats, were counted.

Raman has since built a sizable lead of more than 40,000 votes over Pratt, one week after the election. Since the race was called, Pratt has made only two other public comments.

In one post, he shared an image of a duck shortly after his hopes of becoming Los Angeles mayor came crashing down.

The cryptic message was of a lone duck floating on calm water at sunset as outrage over the election result erupted around him.

Pratt entered the race after his Southern California home burned down last year. “Sitting duck,” one person commented.

“Like water off a duck’s back,” another wrote, adding a folded-hands emoji.

Pratt has not publicly explained the meaning behind the sunset duck post, but it arrived as supporters continued to debate the result and the future of his unlikely political campaign.

His other post came after he fired back at Jimmy Kimmel, who roasted him for being defeated in the Los Angeles mayoral race.

During his monologue Tuesday night, the late-night host mocked claims that the election was “rigged” and referenced Pratt’s previous comments that he would leave the city if he lost.

“I know things might be tight right now, especially with the out-of-state donation money running out,” Kimmel said.

“Moving is expensive, so to help you out we rented you a U-Haul. Our staff spent the whole day decorating for you, and everybody will notice you and wave goodbye as you leave.”

Pratt responded Wednesday morning in what was only the second time he had spoken publicly since the election results were called, posting a video of his destroyed Pacific Palisades home.

“Jimmy Kimmel, I guess you missed the part of the story. I don’t need a U-Haul … I have nothing left to pack,” he wrote.

Since Pratt lost his bid for Los Angeles mayor, numerous theories alleging election fraud and voter fraud have circulated online, including claims amplified by President Donald Trump.

However, election officials, including the county Registrar’s Office and the California Secretary of State’s Office, have repeatedly rejected those allegations.
