It's 8PM on the West Coast, polls have closed, and I'm excited to kick off another round of California's election month coverage.

@MDKanin @Carpenter_Scott @optiqdata They must not be using @Political_Data or Civiq by @optiqdata !

@optiqdata To stop wasting money contacting voters who already voted:

[Cole Patterson📊 @ColePatterson]

My only hot take for this election:

Getting GOTV text messages from major GOP campaigns on election day after I already voted 6 days ago means that they aren't using the Civiq platform by @optiqdata, and that makes me sad.

[Cole Patterson📊 @ColePatterson]

I know we initially said low to mid 30s for turnout in the city, but maybe it's looking higher than that?

[Optiq @optiqdata]

At least 390k ballots returned (almost 18% turnout) in the City of Los Angeles from this afternoon's update.

Returned: D+41.2
🔵Dem: 60.3%
🔴Rep: 19.1%
🟣Oth: 20.5%

@FlashReport Thanks Jon!

[Cole Patterson📊 @ColePatterson]

Proud of our team!

[Optiq @optiqdata]

Happy Election Day, California!

We launched Civiq in February, and since then 200M+ audience contacts have been activated through the platform this cycle.

To our clients: thank you for trusting our team. Let's bring it home.

Turnout in the city of Los Angeles jumps 5% over the weekend, now at 15% with over 330k total returned (+110k from Friday's update).

Returned ballot share was D+36 on Friday and is now sitting around D+40. Final turnout in 2022 Primary in the City of Los Angeles was D+64.

[Optiq @optiqdata]

Heading into GOTV weekend in the city of Los Angeles, turnout is at 10% now with over 220k ballots returned so far.

We're expecting there to be around 30% total turnout citywide, so we're probably around 1/3 of what we'll see when all is said and done here.

@OCGOP @rpyers @paulmitche11 @LACountyRRCC Usually receive updates from OC in afternoon. We’ve only received handful of counties this weekend

[Cole Patterson📊 @ColePatterson]

I think so. Initial return date was 05/23 and then approved with no challenges etc looks like 05/27. Perhaps this has all been an interesting academic exercise in how the process works from received to counted and then also how vendors classify the same thing slightly different 🤓

[Cole Patterson📊 @ColePatterson]

@rpyers @paulmitche11 @LACountyRRCC Now that we're all creeping on Rob...

We have a different date than that?

[Optiq @optiqdata]

Heading into GOTV weekend with over 3 million ballots returned for Tuesday's primary election in California.

13% turnout so far
Dem: 1.4M
Rep: 1.0M
Oth: 620k

We're projecting somewhere around 8 million total votes to be cast for this election, so we've still got a ways to go.

[Optiq @optiqdata]

In the City of Los Angeles, we're still about 3% total turnout so we've got a long ways to go to hit the 33-37% anticipated mark, but Rep turnout is about double what Dem turnout is at the moment.

Rep: 6.1% turnout
Dem: 3.4% turnout

Reg Advantage: D+40
Return Margin: D+27

[Optiq @optiqdata]

Over 1 million ballots have been returned so far for the California Primary on our tracker as of late last night📈

Return Share by Party
Democrat: 41.3%
Republican: 37.1%
NPP/Oth: 21.7%

@Patterdude Some guy working as a data engineer in the year 2099 would be pulling his hair out reading this

This is equivalent to trying to sell a cop drugs while he’s in uniform in his police car.
