Republicans pored over voter rolls in New Jersey, looking for noncitizens who cast ballots.

What did they find? A grand total of two, the last of whom voted nearly two decades ago.

Fox News wrote this up as an "exclusive:"

"One noncitizen, who the county said was removed from the rolls in 2015, voted several times in 2000 and 2001, and in the 2008 general election. Another voted in a primary election in 2005 and a municipal election in 2000."

Congratulations to @XavierBecerra. I am excited to offer him all the support I can as he sets out to become our state’s next governor.

This race has featured a large field with many strong candidates, and I am confident that our party will now unite behind Xavier and his calm, steady brand of leadership.

I have been fortunate to see firsthand how Xavier never shies away from the biggest fights, whether it was taking on the drug companies as Secretary of Health and Human Services or going after sex traffickers and big polluters as California’s Attorney General. I know as Governor, he will do whatever it takes to stand up to Donald Trump, defend our rights, and protect our communities.

I look forward to standing with Xavier as California makes history by electing our first Latino governor in 150 years.

CNN: Tom Steyer (D) concedes race for California governor

Steyer: “It would be a travesty for Steve Hilton to win the governorship, and Californians must unite behind Xavier Becerra to ensure he does not.”

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

.@XavierBecerra has the experience and grit California needs.

He will stand up to Donald Trump, defend our families, and keep our state moving forward.

It’s time to get to work and help him win this November.

Karen Bass rigged the election in Los Angeles so that she could face a more threatening challenger from the left in an overwhelmingly liberal city rather than a challenger from the right at a time when MAGA is the most toxic political brand. Very astute analysis here.

I’ll bet this hits so hard if you’re stupid.

JUST IN: Progressive Nithya Raman will advance to the general election and face incumbent Karen Bass in the Los Angeles mayoral race, according to Decision Desk HQ projections.

It’s over for former reality TV villain Spencer Pratt.

[Xavier Becerra @XavierBecerra]

California has spoken. Thank you for standing with us. To every volunteer who made a call, sent a text, knocked a door, or showed up when it mattered most — this victory belongs to you.

We're just getting started. On to November.

As the big lie rears its ugly head towards California, here is a video explaining it in a very simple way to the people who are stupid enough to believe it

[Doug Sovern @SovernNation]

The same people screaming about how long it takes California to count votes are also claiming voter fraud and demanding better election integrity.

That’s exactly *why* CA takes the time to check all those signatures and make sure ballots are legitimate before counting them.

[evan loves worf @esjesjesj]

It’s continually funny that the right wingers who call it commiefornia are acting surprised that the right wing dipshit did not win the election in the place that’s like 90% democrats

[Governor Newsom Press Office @GovPressOffice]

Why do Republicans hate that California counts every vote?

[Brian Tyler Cohen @briantylercohen]

About to hit REM during those extended blinks.

[Will Fritz @fritzed_you]

You’re never gonna believe where all the people in California live

[Aaron Blake @AaronBlake]

Not sure I will ever get used to how casually powerful people baselessly seed suspicion about our elections like this.

Call California ridiculously slow, by all means. But this goes well beyond that.

Hunter Biden is straight up a MAGA whisperer 😭😭. Like those tv shows where an animal expert calms down a rabid dog.
