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?
🇺🇸 TEXAS
The runoff is over.
Now comes the part most people skip.
Paying attention and staying active.
The grassroots didn't spend months organizing, volunteering, donating, posting, and voting just to disappear after Election Day.
The job isn't finished.
The job is accountability.
Who's still here? 👇
I have Voted and supported @tedcruz Every time he is up for re-election. My famliy and i campaigned for him against Beto. Time has come to rethink that decision like many other Texans. His silence and lack of courage against Thune speaks volumes.

🚨 BREAKING — TEXAS
Three GOP county parties just proved hand-counting works.
Calhoun, Gillespie & Kerr counties hand-counted their May 26 Republican primary runoff -elections by the people, at the precinct -and succeeded.
🧵
Sen Cruz your butt buddy just got his ass kicked. I, like millions of Texans, have supported you since you entered the arena. Lately I’ve sensed a subtle change in your views that have me concerned. Get on the MAGA wagon or you’re going to lose that support! I hope not.
As someone who has come and gone from X many times, the ONLY thing the platform truly has is that it is where the world goes to communicate. And that’s a big thing, given that everyone is in the same place. In a way, it’s foolish to have a large following/project/book release and not allow yourself to be found.
But beyond that, the worst people on Earth sit around and abuse everyone they can find, and turn this place into a toxic hate chamber. I don’t post for ad revenues - I do it because that’s where the audience of the world is. Too many people use this platform to do nothing but bitch or troll.
@matlockfortexas I am Defiant! The Vote Machines must be dismantled.
Precinct Level, Handmarked Paper Ballots, counted at the Precinct they were cast.
No Mail in Ballots unless Deployed or Disabled.
Where are all of my Patriots with the true DEFIANT attitude? I hear people say they are grassroots, some even claim to be conservative. I have only heard a few that claim to have the true defiant attitude that was the foundation upon which this great nation was founded.
🚨HISTORIC
Kerr County GOP Ready to Hand-Count Primary Runoff Ballots!
Led by training coordinator Sharon Agold, who has been preparing volunteers since January, Kerr County Republicans are set for secure and transparent hand-counting of Election Day ballots in the upcoming runoff.
Trained teams focused on accuracy, integrity, and low-cost accountability. 🇺🇸
This builds on successful scaled efforts nearby while keeping taxpayer costs minimal.

Thomas Massie had a good voting record, or so I’m told.
Except for his silence on the rigged and stolen 2020 election, his silence over the soft power coup against Trump that exposed us to a globalist death spiral, his selective outrage about the Epstein files (which vindicated Trump), and his endorsement of Ron DeSantis over the real President —- you know, the one the bad guys keep trying to kill….
If you look past those things, I can see why you are upset about tonight’s loss.
And if you looked past those things, you are also a moron.
This is why the two majority winning parties Elected precinct chairs to be Presiding and Alternate Judge over our precinct polling locations on election day. The Presiding Judge chooses the polling place and appoints the people to handcount our ballots. But that Republican form of local self government is being overthrown by enemies of the people. Early voting polling places are selected by unelected activist Election Administrators-they are the Presiding Judge over entire County, not just one precinct.
Thanks for inviting me to join the group. I just finished a book that will hit just in time for Memorial Day. This book will hopefully reduce or eliminate the 22 per day loss.
Epilogue: A Letter to the Warrior Still in the BLACK
Brother or Sister,
If you’re reading this right now and the BLACK is still pressing in—if the weight feels unbearable, the memories won’t stop, the shame is louder than hope, or you’re sitting where I once sat with a pistol in your hand—this letter is written especially for you.
I was you.
I believed the lie that I was unworthy. Unlovable. Too broken for God to ever use again. Mack Alexander Chiles believed the same lie when he was medically retired, jobless, and ready to give up. We were both wrong.
You are Unworthy No More.
That phone call from my ten-year-old son was God breaking through my darkness. Pictures of Mack holding his son Reeves were God breaking through his. Your breakthrough is coming. It may happen through these pages, through a battle buddy, through Scripture, or through a quiet voice in the middle of the night. But it is coming.
The God who calls us back into the fight loves you right now—in the middle of your mess, your PTSD, your guilt, and your pain. He demonstrated His love while we were still sinners. While we were still planning our exit. While we were still convinced we were finished.
You are loved.
You are forgiven.
You are still needed.
You are being trained.
You are called back into the fight.
Start here. Right where you are.
Make this your daily prayer:
“God, put me where you need me to be so that I may learn what you need me to learn in order to do what you need me to do.”
Then take the next right step:
• Put on the full armor of God.
• Take every thought captive.
• Reach out to one person.
• Serve in your church, your kids’ school, or a youth organization.
• Get active in your community and this great country.
• Work with your hands and watch God repurpose them.
The reset doesn’t happen overnight. It happens one surrendered day at a time. One bad day turned into training. One obedient step forward.
Your scars are not the end of the story. They are preparation for a greater mission. The same God who saved two broken veterans like Mack and me is ready to write the next chapter of your life.
You are Unworthy No More.
Your story isn’t over.
Your best days are still ahead.
God still has a purpose for your life.
Set your goals high.
Dream big.
Love this country by serving the people around you.
And never stop believing that the God who calls us back into the fight can do more with your broken pieces than you could ever imagine.
I’m praying for you—the warrior still in the BLACK.
You are seen.
You are loved.
You are called.
Keep fighting.
The dawn is coming.
Unworthy No More.
BELIEVE. 🇺🇸
With you in the fight,
James Matlock
Final Battle Drill – Epilogue
Reflect: What one truth from this book are you choosing to stand on today?
Key Verse: “I am confident of this: that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” — Philippians 1:6
Action Step: If you’re struggling right now, reach out to someone today. Then read Romans 5:8 out loud and declare: “I am Unworthy No More.”
Closing Prayer: God, for every warrior still in the BLACK—break through like You did for me. Remind them they are Unworthy No More. Put them where You need them. Train them. Restore them. Call them back into the fight. Amen.
BELIEVE. 🇺🇸
5/6 What will it take for Democrats and Republicans to come together on an issue like restoring trust in our election systems by Making Elections Lawful Again?
Democrats should not like the fact that their own constituents are being disenfranchised.
Republicans should not like the fact that it is unauditable and therefore impossible to prove fraud.
Ending Countywide Voting is a Win/Win.
