“Sometimes people say, ‘the less you know the more you like,’” the host quipped. “You are now giving them many years to make a decision, because the election is not until 2028. Why so early?”
“Oh, for some reason, the mayor election is 2026 – I don’t know, that’s just what the office told me as well,” the previous MTV star replied, before erupting into laughter.
By Thursday, she’d ditched her mayoral bid and announced she was instead operating for Austin City Council, local news outlet KXAN reported.
“I reached out to the city and I just was like, ‘hey, I’m very serious about this…I love this city and I want to get involved in and help where I live and breathe, and I know I can help because I’m making it, others seem to be struggling, and I want to jump in the mix,’” Abraham told the outlet.
But she appeared shaky on the fundamentals of local politics yet again.

When requested about her ideas on her district’s current council member, Abraham admitted she had no clue who held the seat – despite dwelling in the district.
“I don’t even know who’s in District 5. Maybe their names just like aren’t big names or something,” she said. “They just don’t come up where I work.”
The Nebraska native, who moved to Austin in 2013, told Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” last 12 months that she was “making millions” from OnlyFans.
Beyond her grownup resume, which incorporates an notorious 2013 intercourse tape, Abraham is a self-proclaimed life coach and stand-up comic, according to her web site.
Councilmember Ryan Alter, an Austin native and Harvard Law School graduate elected to the seat in 2023, told The Post he’s “excited” to be operating for reelection this 12 months.

If elected, Abraham said she would also focus on housing affordability so Austinites don’t continue “shifting farther and farther out.
“I just can’t wait to see what’s really going on…We’re going to have a better life in Austin,” she vowed.
The metropolis council hopeful, when requested for remark, referred The Post to her marketing campaign web site.
Abraham’s website doesn’t point out whether or not she’s operating as a Democrat or Republican, which isn’t uncommon as Austin City Council races are nonpartisan.
