Spencer Pratt has fallen to third place in the race for Los Angeles mayor, and that drop now puts him outside the current top-two runoff.
The latest Los Angeles County results show incumbent Karen Bass in first, city council member Nithya Raman in second, and Pratt sitting just behind in third.
For days, Pratt had been fighting Raman for that second slot.
The newest ballot drops flipped it.
Raman now leads Pratt by 3,113 votes for the runoff position.
Spencer Pratt is now OUT of contention for the LA Mayor’s race.
Nithya Raman won 1st in the latest ballot drops— Never in election history has the 3rd place contender SURGE like this.
This is such utter bullshit, it’s laughable. https://t.co/V1J09XAHQq pic.twitter.com/yozZK8xBRm

Bass holds first with 250,871 votes and 34.68 percent.
Raman has 196,198 votes and 27.12 percent.
Pratt has 193,085 votes and 26.69 percent.
The same official feed lists 741,793 ballots counted in the mayor contest, with 725,075 candidate votes and 1,603 write-ins.
These are current unofficial returns.
The count is not finished, and the results are not yet certified.
That is why the wording matters here: Pratt is out of the current runoff position, and if these standings hold, he is out of the November race.
Conservatives are raising questions about the direction of the late-count movement, and the official numbers tell that part of the story plainly.
Associated Press reported the race was still too early to call on Sunday, while also noting that Raman had moved into second place behind Bass for the first time since voting ended Tuesday.
AP also reported that Raman has gained more votes than Pratt with every update Los Angeles election officials have provided since Tuesday.
AP estimates a little less than 150,000 ballots are still left to be counted.
The remaining count still matters.
The margin between Raman and Pratt is roughly 3,100 votes, and there are tens of thousands of ballots still outstanding.
But if the current standings hold through the remaining count and certification, Pratt misses the top-two runoff for mayor of Los Angeles.
That would leave Bass and Raman on track for November, while the outsider candidate who shook up the race gets pushed out by the late count.
