Far left Los Angeles mayoral candidate Nithya Raman is getting dragged on Twitter/X for bragging about a ‘fixed’ crosswalk in the city.
She mentions in her tweet that the city received a complaint about the crosswalk in late 2025 and then happily announces that it just got completed, so that’s only about nine months, right?
Nine months, to do this:
The Los Feliz Neighborhood Council alerted our office in late 2025 to the need for a crosswalk at Sunset Dr. and Bates St., which has just been completed!

Nithya Raman roasted for boasting about paint job on mangled street: ‘Lipstick on a pig’
Los Angeles mayoral hopeful Nithya Raman was mercilessly mocked after proudly gloating about a newly painted crosswalk in her district — despite the fact that the road remains cracked and broken.
The city councilwoman celebrated the crosswalk’s “makeover” at Sunset Drive and Bates Street in Los Feliz on Wednesday, sharing before-and-after photos of the intersection.
“The Los Feliz Neighborhood Council alerted our office in late 2025 to the need for a crosswalk at Sunset Dr. and Bates St., which has just been completed!” Raman wrote.
“Thank you to our incredible CD4 Field Team for continuing to problem-solve, push for solutions, and make our streets safer.”
But her boast backfired big time as critics zeroed in on the cracked pavement still visible beneath and around the freshly painted yellow stripes.
“So they put lipstick on a pig?” one X user quipped.
Los Angeles is pretty much doomed at this point.
The left got Spencer Pratt booted off the ballot and now the only choices are this moron or the incapable incumbent.
What an absolute mess.
