And she ran a terrible campaign. You are never going to win election if you come across as actively disliking the people you would be representing if elected. And Susan Hall very much gave that impression.

Running a campaign based on bad mouthing London and it's inhabitants might work in Clacton-on-sea, but it doesn't wash in Clapham, Chiswick or any other part of London.
