Why will Pratt move his family from Los Angeles if he loses?
Pratt has spent recent months positioning himself as an outsider candidate. Pratt, as the mayoral candidate, is focused on public safety, family issues and urban cleanup efforts.
On the Pratt said that he has seriously considered relocating if he does not win the elections. He said, referring to the city’s increasing homelessness, “I’ll go find somewhere that my kids will not have to see naked zombies, and I can have the last American Dream somewhere.”
He also criticized what he described as ineffective governance and bureaucratic failures tied to homelessness response efforts and crime prevention.
Regarding his Democratic rivals, he declared, “I will not rebuild if these people are in charge. Because what would I be putting my money in?”

What is Pratt’s plan if he wins?
Pratt told Corolla that if he wins, Pratt would choose to rebuild his home, which was destroyed in the wildfires.
Pratt has stated that his choice to run was greatly influenced by his experience with the wildfires and the city’s purportedly ineffective administration. He has made extensive use of that experience in his campaign, including a widely shared advertisement that contrasted his living conditions with those of Bass and Raman.
The ad claimed that Pratt was living in an airstream trailer because of the loss of his home in the fire. However, since the wildfire last year, Pratt has reportedly been residing at a hotel.
