If you think California is taking a long time to count votes... wait until you hear how long the Trump Administration is taking to release the Epstein Files

@JoeConchaTV repudiate the divisive MAGA BS, and return to a hopeful, inclusive vision modeled after Reagan/Bush/Kemp and there could be a road to redemption. Riordan did it after the LA Riots in '92 and Schwarzenegger did it twice as governor 15 years ago. MAGA is a lost cause

@BrittRooted except CA premier pollster UC Berkeley-L.A. Times found Mayor Bass at 26%, Nithya Raman at 25% and Spencer Pratt at 22% among likely voters... released the weekend before Election Day. Proven to be pretty accurate

@ksorbs math... when one party has 4:1 advantage, then it's highly likely that party will have a total vote advantage of 4:1. Does that consistent math advantage make sense to you?

@StellaEscoTV @GavinNewsom UPDATE: This rumor was investigated by the Trump administration's top federal prosecutor in Los Angeles and found to be false

[F.A. United States Attorney Bill Essayli @USAttyEssayli]

There was a claim circulating on social media about an election night ballot update at the Los Angeles Registrar of Voters where one candidate received zero votes.

We reviewed official county records. The claim is false. Each candidate received votes in every update.

My office will continue monitoring the election counting process and will follow the evidence wherever it leads.

If anyone has credible information concerning election fraud, please send it to:

@ABC7 MAGA gonna wake up BIG MAD... let the election hijack conspiracy theories kick into high gear

@NateSilver538 follow this explainer... makes total rational sense (count and verify every legal and duly vote that's cast). Sounds very 🇺🇸

A few points re: CA voting today:

Per https://t.co/T1EECZJsV0, there were 4.221 million ballots received as of yesterday.

That's up 484k from 2022.

There were 7.2 million votes cast in 2022, with about 6.95 million counted for Governor.

1/x

[David Roberts @DavidRobertsLA9]

@MAGAVoice are you sure about those numbers? Here's the ballots mailed and the number of ballots received. Pratt is going to need a lot of Democrats Decline to State voters

[Tommy Vietor @TVietor08]

That's a hell of an expensive NYC visit

[David Roberts @DavidRobertsLA9]

@wcdispatch math... registered Dems outnumber registered Reps 4:1.

He'll need to convince a huge portion of them to vote for someone who's running a MAGA style campaign

Did Spencer Pratt cyber bully a hero of the Palisades fire relief effort? I did some digging.
