On election night in Los Angeles County, I pulled every statewide race directly from the California Secretary of State’s official results page. Same ballots. Same voters. Same night.

The governor’s race the most important, most advertised race on the entire ballot received roughly 100,000 fewer total votes than the controller and secretary of state races. On the same physical ballot.

The exact numbers from the official SOS website:

•Governor total votes: 796,467
•Controller total votes: 901,756
•Secretary of State total votes: 889,586

That means 105,289 more people voted for state controller than voted for governor. And 93,119 more people voted for secretary of state than voted for governor.

Do you know what the state controller does? Most people don’t. It is one of the most obscure offices on the ballot. Yet it got more votes than the race that determines who runs the largest state in America for the next four years.

All Republican governor candidates combined on election night: 222,712 votes

Republican controller candidate (Herb Morgan): 302,552 votes

Republican secretary of state candidate (Don Wagner): 291,650 votes

That means roughly 70,000 to 80,000 people voted Republican in the controller and secretary of state races but did not cast a Republican vote for governor on the same ballot.

These are not different ballots. These are not different voters. This is one piece of paper. Governor is at the TOP. Controller and secretary of state are further DOWN.

People don’t undervote on the top ballot. They undervote on the bottom ballot.

How does this make any sense?

What am I missing people who are smarter than me?

@EdGeeDetroiter @WarlordDilley I don’t really care who wrote them. Counting them last can hide fraud. It can also creates the perception that there could be fraud. Fraud or not, the practice is a real problem.

@NJBeisner I don’t worry a lot about her emotional state of mind

[E. W. Baker @GoCubsBears]

@TomBinns15 @doogadoo11 Is that supposed to bother me?

[E. W. Baker @GoCubsBears]

@Careles03243808 @XVanFleet I hardly think that complimenting the pool is evidence of anything other than acknowledging it’s better but you can’t seem to do that which convicts you as a cultist far more than MAGA.

@Janetbr59048961 @doogadoo11 So you must like him.

@spatially @doogadoo11 Consider that no Democrat leader would want to deal with 5 more months of Pratt hammering them, even if they knew Bass would win.

[E. W. Baker @GoCubsBears]

@TomBinns15 @doogadoo11 That’s not fraud, it’s complaining.

@MccmechSteven @WarlordDilley A Sad truth

[E. W. Baker @GoCubsBears]

@Lolly3535 @MarkMcD98814553 @WarlordDilley Yes. I agree.

[E. W. Baker @GoCubsBears]

The logical way to handle this in the future is to not count a single ballot until all ballots are in. Then, start the counting with the mail in ballots. This would eliminate the perception that there was fraud. It’s a simple common sense approach. The fact that this isn’t being done with full knowledge of the perceptual problems it creates tells me that fraud is likely.
