Spencer Pratt has questions.

After finishing in a strong second place on election night — which would have advanced him to the November runoff — Pratt watched a “net swing of more than 43,000 votes” hand his runner-up spot to far-left Democrat Nithya Raman when nearly every post-election ballot drop went in Raman’s favor.

Pratt quickly noticed that the 43,000 number rang a bell.

“43,000, huh? Where have I seen that number before...?” he wrote on social media, attaching an article explaining that roughly 43,000 people are homeless in Los Angeles. “Probably nothing,” he joked.

President Trump is noticing, too. “No way this could have happened. Rigged Election!” he said on Monday.
