Former reality television star Spencer Pratt says only socialists and communists oppose his bid to become mayor of Los Angeles. He insists that Democrats across the city are backing his campaign focused on local issues.
Pratt made the comments in an interview days after a televised debate with opponents Karen Bass and Councilmember Nithya Raman. Clips from the event, in which he criticized city leadership on crime, homelessness and public safety, spread widely online. He told CBS News he expects to win with 51 percent of the vote on June 2 because his message avoids national politics.
