As expected, the matter has reached another stage.
John Putnam, a business leader, is weighing in on the Los Angeles mayoral race. He points to crime, wildfires, and the business climate as reasons for voter discontent. Spencer Pratt’s message is resonating with people, according to Putnam. The winner of the mayoral race will have a “trickle down” effect on the entire county. Putnam’s company is based near downtown Los Angeles, and he’s seen the impact of crime and high taxes on businesses. The mayoral race is heating up, with Pratt facing off against incumbent Mayor Karen Bass and progressive Councilwoman Nithya Raman.
It’s become a familiar pattern: a crisis, a surge in popularity for an outsider candidate, and a focus on crime and business climate.
