Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, who is a leading Republican candidate for governor, has seized more than 650,000 ballots from last November’s election and is investigating whether they were fraudulently counted.
“This investigation is simple: Physically count the ballots and compare that result with the total votes recorded,” Bianco said at a news conference Friday.
The unusual probe drew a sharp rebuke from California Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta, who said in a statement Friday that it is “unprecedented in both scope and scale” and appears “not to be based on facts or evidence.”
The funniest thing that could happen in CA is voters have to choose between two Republican governors and they both argue about the other rigging the election.
The billionaires here would deserve it.
Except for one of those two fascist idiots ending up being in charge of the state. THAT would be decidedly unfun.
There would be a recall 3 seconds after they take office lmao
One would hope CA realizes they need to change their voting system to stop being garbage after this. Jungle primary with top 2 (or top 4) advancing is fine, but there needs to be approval or ranked voting in the first round.
I just find it so funny that the dem field is so dilute that gop is potentially leading right now in California. Like, Dems just need to choose Porter, Swalwell, and one or two more, but they’re scared to because it will smell like choosing kamala and hillary (with good reason).
It’s prob not gonna happen anyway. Rs don’t get that high a vote share and all of the polls have the combined R share close to the typical total R share already, with like 20% undecided that are largely D. There’s a real shot still that it’s two Ds anyway just because Bianco and Hilton are capped out on support already.
probably, but like i am having trouble deciding between Swalwell and Porter (lots of lawyers and judges in the family so i understand them when they talk and feel kinship, also i like Porter’s whiteboard and Swalwell’s performance in the 45 impeachments (yes i know the senate was going to do nothing anyways, he explained stuff well and in a digestible manner) and i can see 5 or 6 actually electable Dems hanging in there until the election.
