Two reports describe a Tuesday set of videos circulating on TikTok that allegedly involve homeless residents on Los Angeles’ Skid Row and claims that they were paid to vote in the Los Angeles mayoral race. The New York Post says a content creator who follows local politics posted the videos, which purportedly show people in the area saying they were paid to support Mayor Karen Bass and councilwoman Nithya Raman. The outlet attributes the posting to an account named LaneNeedsSpencerPratt and reports that it obtained copies of the videos after they were published. Both accounts focus on the existence of the videos and the specific allegations made within them, but they do not provide independent verification of the claims, details about who allegedly paid the voters, or any response from the candidates named. As presented in the reports, the material is an allegation circulating online tied to a political race, rather than a confirmed finding.
