  • The LA Mayor Poll That Doesn’t Add Up
    Mar 31 2026

    The Gary & Shannon Show Hour 2 (03.31) – A new poll shakes up the LA mayor’s race, but the way it was built raises bigger questions than the results themselves.• A new survey shows Nithya Raman with a surprising lead over Karen Bass, but the methodology is already under scrutiny.
