This is part of our story.

If CA leaders wanted to prioritize a faster vote count, these are some of the policies they could implement:
-Ballots must be RECEIVED by Election Day. If you’re voting last minute, you have to vote in person or take your ballot to a county drop off spot. Then you wouldn’t need to wait 7 days to know how many ballots are needed to count
-Only mail ballots to voters who request them…not every registered voter. This would cut down on ballots being sent to bad addresses or the chances for ballot harvesting
-Send all registered voters free ID cards & require those cards for in person voting. Do not allow same day registration. This would likely cut down on provisional ballots that take longer to examine and process.
-Cut down the number of days to “cure” your ballot if there’s an issue from 10 to 5. This would allow for a faster certification date.
This would all speed up the count.
Could all of this lead to fewer people voting? Possibly.
Is the trade off worth it? That’s up to policy makers to determine.
A reminder: the current candidates for Gov. and Secretary of State have very different views on these issues.
@Caeso_K@Elex_Michaelson Please don't get me wrong. It happens with both parties, including in California.

@Caeso_K@Elex_Michaelson I disagree with the premise that "there's never been any evidence of widespread fraud in any election..."
Perhaps you don't remember the old political slogan "vote early and vote often..." lol
@Elex_Michaelson@Caeso_K That's good to know. How does it do that if the signatures match the voter registration forms, some of which were the subject of fraud?
Yes or no: Are there issues with fraud in the California voter registration process? Does the signature verification process discard votes from people who were fraudulently registered?

@Caeso_K@Elex_Michaelson 2) How do we find out if anyone fraudulently voted?
Does the verification process discard votes that were the result of fraudulent registration?
That's why I asked those Elex the questions above.
Can you please do some actual reporting instead of just posting opinions?
The signature verification process is only one part of guaranteeing🤌 a 🤌fair 🤌and 🤌 accurate 🤌election.👇

People have been arrested and charged for illegally paying people on skid row to register to vote. Many of those who registered that way could be from out of state or otherwise not qualified to vote. Also, if those people don't have homes or mailing addresses where are the ballots being sent?
In my mind, there are a number of issues beyond signature verification. Just my two cents.
Thanks for your continued reporting! It is very much appreciated.

@MattRexroad This issues with potential election fraud may not be related to the counting. One example...

@alx FACT: There are some serious issues with California's voting system. It isn't a conspiracy theory.

@Elex_Michaelson@IngrahamAngle Honest and sincere questions: Does signature verification actually verify that the voters are actual people qualified to vote in California? If so how is that done?
@stephen_richer@yashar Because it's obvious to anyone who isn't politically biased to recognize the voting system in California can be manipulated and rigged. That's why!
