LA's June 2 primary is less than four weeks away. You know the names — Karen Bass, Nithya Raman, Spencer Pratt — but do you know which one actually shares your priorities? Answer five honest questions and find out.
Question 1: You walk past a large tent encampment near your home. What should the city do?
Offer shelter beds first, move the camp only after everyone has a place to go
→ Matches: Raman
Clear it now — enforce the law and connect people to services after
→ Matches: Pratt
Move people into temporary shelter while working toward permanent housing
→ Matches: Bass
Question 2: Your rent went up 15% this year. What's the right response?
Expand rent control and strengthen tenant protections citywide
→ Matches: Raman
Build more housing to bring down prices through supply
→ Matches: Pratt
Both — protect renters now and build more over time
→ Matches: Bass
Question 3: The LAPD is understaffed. What should the Mayor prioritize?
Hire significantly more officers and restore law enforcement capacity
→ Matches: Pratt
Invest in community programs that address root causes of crime
→ Matches: Raman
Moderate increase in officers plus reform of use-of-force policies
→ Matches: Bass
Question 4: The city has a $1 billion budget deficit. How do you fix it?
Cut city spending and reduce the size of government
→ Matches: Pratt
Raise taxes on high earners and corporations to maintain services
→ Matches: Raman
A mix of targeted cuts and new revenue sources
→ Matches: Bass
Question 5: The Palisades wildfire response is your biggest concern heading into this election. Who do you blame?
Karen Bass — she was out of the country and the city was unprepared
→ Matches: Pratt
A system failure that goes beyond any one person — we need structural change
→ Matches: Raman
It's complicated — I want to see better preparation without changing leadership
→ Matches: Bass
What your answers mean
Mostly A's → Nithya Raman
You prioritize tenant protections, community-led homelessness solutions, and a more progressive approach to city governance. Raman is the current frontrunner in prediction markets at 55% and aligns most closely with your values.
Mostly B's → Spencer Pratt
You want a harder line on public order, fiscal discipline, and encampment enforcement. Pratt is the only candidate explicitly running on this platform — he's at 21% in prediction markets but has momentum among voters frustrated with the status quo.
Mostly C's → Karen Bass
You want continuity on homelessness progress while demanding better wildfire preparedness. Bass has housed over 21,000 people through Inside Safe but faces real accountability questions. She's at 28% in prediction markets — a tough primary, but still in the race.
