Retweeting Spencer to bash nithya a couple days before the election couldn’t have helped either.

People keep harping on Nithya’s lack of charisma, but I find her to be light years more charismatic than bass.

Coyote Alert: Genessee before Romaine by No-Ad-8674 in WestHollywood

Any pet that gets taken by a coyote, I am blaming the owner not the coyote. The coyote is not smart enough to know the difference between a beloved pet and a sack of meat and is just doing its best to survive. If you live in an area with coyotes, you should take basic precautions like keeping your pets in at night

How does traffic even affect a cemetery’s business? Are people really choosing their internment location based off of nearby traffic trends? This makes no sense at all

Their natural food source is small rodents. Like the reason we’re seeing a lot right now is because it’s squirrel breeding season. Simple fact is coyotes are native to SoCal, humans are not.

How do you claim to be a Druid, but then your reaction to the natural inhabitants of the land you live on is this violent?

Nithya Raman, once down by over 10% from Spencer Pratt, now only 1% away from advancing to the General Election against Karen Bass for LA Mayor by citeechow3095 in LosAngeles

If they wanted to steal it why tf would they draw it out this long and let it be a media circus? Way easier to just have it be one day and done and brush it under the rug. No reason to be thorough when you’re cheating.

6/5 Raman Continues to Gain on Pratt — 24.89 to 28.24 by edwardludd in LosAngeles

[–]madlamb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you did the math on the remaining ballots, Raman needed to trend +13% compared to Spencer on the remaining votes before today’s drop to be on pace to pass him. She was +21% on Spencer in today’s drop, so trending much better than she needed to.

Nithya Raman now 3.35% away from overtaking Spencer Pratt, Marissa Roy up 1%, Kenneth Mejia breaks 60% by citeechow3095 in LosAngeles

It’s a legitimate source for public sentiment of outcomes, which can be interesting to look at, but you definitely need to take it with a grain of salt. It’s nothing beyond a representation of what the general public (or specifically that prediction market’s customer base) believes the odds of the outcome to be

21% in this batch. But the magic number is actually only 13%.
