You obviously aren't from California. For state positions, the top two candidates move on to the general election. It isn't called a runoff - that is only in some city elections. But, if one person got 80%, they still would have to run again in the general election in November. The only exception is the Superintendent of Instruction or Special Elections to replace a vacancy, where the person can win outright with more than 50% (not 50%, but has to be a slight bit over). So call BS all you want - but next time do a little research before you make a fool of yourself online.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

I guess you don't believe that Californian Democrats have the Constitutional right to vote for their representatives or you aren't a patriot as you don't believe in the U.S. Constitution which says states govern their elections. If you don't like it, work to change the Constitution. But, until then, quit crying like a little baby. Grow up and learn what a Patriot truly is - one that believes and honors the U.S. Constitution.

33 states (majority are red states) use the mail-in ballots. Many of those states do mail to all voters. Show me a proven case of fraud by a registered democrat in California - there have been 50 investigations - show me where one of those investigations, including many by Republicans, have proven fraud by the democrats. You have no idea of the registration process, and then the matching process once a ballot is received. Prior to that, information is mailed to all voters - ballots are not mailed to people where the initial mail was returned that the person no longer was there. Then, after that, if they submit a mail-in ballot, the signature is verified. If it doesn't match, they have a brief window to take their ID and proof of residency into the registrars if they want their ballot to count. I voted once in Georgia and they didn't even look at my ID - I registered online and there was no checks on my address or IDs - so your whining fraud crying is ridiculous and you and everyone else knows it, but it is the only way you can try to disenfranchise voters that you don't want to have a vote.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

@saturn42227 @JeffLHughes @MJTruthUltra Voting on election day by a legal method is not fraud - that is what MAGAs want to call fraud, but these are citizens and Californians submitting their ballot as they legally are able to - that is called voter participation and Constitutional rights.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

You wish but the evidence didn't prove that. The main fraud they found were Trump voters that were dead in Georgia and 176 registered Republicans at one address, but lived in Nevada - they caught those before they were officially registered. So, fraud doesn't impact elections. Even Trump's former head of DOJ said there was no evidence of fraud.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

I will block you. I am a Conservative Christian and I don't call people offensive names. I know MAGAs do that, and if you can't hold a civil conversation, you will be blocked by me. But, I already confirmed those numbers are false. So, nice try-you will fool MAGAs with that nonsense.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

No, people aren't that stupid. Remember that Caruso did that, and it didn't help him. Several others have done that and it didn't work either. Democrats actually research, unlike MAGAs, they don't follow people only because of their party, but research their past and their agenda. I know that may be unfamiliar to you, but that is why others thought they could do that but weren't successful. A few were because they actually did speak out loudly against the ICE actions, so they changed their party. But, they had won as a member of both parties.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

No, because they find creative ways to disenfranchise black and brown people (other than Cubans because they were MAGAs). I'm sorry that you don't care that every citizen has the ability to cast a vote - that shows a blue state is much more patriotic than a red state, and follows the Constitution and the spirit of the founding of this country.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

Well there was fraud in the Georgia election. Dead people voted, and all the votes were for Trump. There was also pre-election fraud found in California where 176 Nevada residents falsely registered as Republicans using the same Bay Area address - but they were caught when they couldn't verify the information they gave. But, there were more than 50 audits done and all showed less than .0003 of one percent, so .000003 that were considered fraud, and those were prosecuted.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

@SensibleSimio @puck269 @MJTruthUltra Not true - but you want to continue to blame your bad policies on fraud, when all investigations have proven there is no fraud that has had any impact on American elections.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

Florida is known for the high number of votes rejected, particularly by young and elderly people do to signature mismatches. They don't take into account that a person that registered 40 years ago may have a different signature now. Both allow no excuse mail in ballots. CA has nearly double the population of FL. FL requires mail in ballots to be received by election day. That gives them a lot of flexibility to deny votes from blue counties or slow down delivery of those ballots. In fact, they said that the ballots that were rejected because it was "claimed" they didn't arrive by election day - 80% are democrat voters in blue counties. Florida is also known for one of the worst election disasters with the "chads" in U.S. history. Florida also disenfranchises a lot of poor voters and black voters. Black voters routinely prosecuted and imprisoned with higher charges than white voters, and fined much more than white voters that have the same crimes, and then they use that as a way to disenfranchise them. While white voters usually are given misdemeanors and probation for crimes that black people are assessed felony and prison for. So, Florida isn't a great example of voting rights or process.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

@Krause_6 @RookieRenee @MJTruthUltra It is the same chaotic process that most red states use. The only difference is the population is much higher, so it takes a lot longer to count the mail-in ballots.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

The election is very secure. Requiring voting in person punishes the poor people who work 2-3 jobs, the elderly, the disabled, and the poor that don't have transportation. That is why MAGA wants that - to disenfranchise the poor voters that vote against governments that reward wealthy people and punish poor people. And, it requires more poll workers, not less. The citizenship and residency is verified through the DMV and Social Security at the time of registration. Then, just as in 36 other states, they verify the signature on the mail in ballots. The majority of states that use mail in ballots are red states, and none of those red states require that you show an ID. Four of those states require you to add an ID number, but MAGAs don't talk about that - they only talk about California when most of their red states are doing the same thing.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

@SBDogMom @GuntherEagleman More than half the voters mail in their ballots, which means counting will continue - and the MAGAs will scream fraud even though it is a legitimate process and those votes cast on Election day, via in person or mail - deserve to be counted.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

@GuntherEagleman I think they said "yes" to KAren Bass unless you saw different results than I did.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

There is no landslide - this is the primary - I guess you don't understand. Of course the one Republican running any decent campaign is going to get all of the republican votes, while the Dems divided their votes among several candidates. But, there will be no red landslide in November

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

@lovey1424 @MJTruthUltra And, you said the words - it is Election Day - so Democrats cast their ballot on Election Day via the mail - not before election day like what you criticize

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

The only reason Trump wins in the primaries is that he waits until a candidate is well ahead in the polls and nearly guaranteed a win - and then he endorses them so that he can claim they won because of him. But, in CA, it showed that the candidates that were way ahead actually dropped a little in the polls after the Trump endorsement and that is happening all over. In Iowa, it dropped too much.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

Homelessness went down 3% in California, and even more in Los Angeles in 2025. Across the nation, it went up 18%. And, that was in spite of Nevada, Texas, Florida, and New York sending thousands of their homeless (rather than fixing their problem) to Los Angeles on a one-way bus ticket.

[Patti O'Leary @docpjo]

Here's the truth, Pratt wants to lead the nation's second largest city, but he wasn't even responsible enough to maintain insurance on his home, and then he blames the mayor for not being able to rebuild - when you don't have home insurance, you don't get the funds to rebuild your home - a very simple and common sense idea. Do we really want a person that is so irresponsible to lead the city.
