La alcaldesa demócrata de Los Ángeles, Karen Bass, se retira de un foro de candidatos programado para el 13 de mayo, a poco más de dos semanas de las elecciones primarias.
Bass había confirmado previamente su asistencia al evento organizado por la Liga de Mujeres Votantes del Gran Los Ángeles y el Instituto Pat Brown de Asuntos Públicos. La semana pasada, debatió en el escenario con la ex estrella de telerrealidad Spencer Pratt y la concejala socialista democrática Nithya Raman.
Los usuarios de X reaccionaron predominantemente con escepticismo y críticas, describiendo la retirada de Karen Bass como una forma de evitar el escrutinio después de que Spencer Pratt dominara un debate, calificándola de cobarde o temerosa; los informes neutrales destacaron la excusa de la agenda y el acalorado intercambio.
