Liberal Reporter Notices Something Odd About California's Democratic Primary Results

Matt Vespa | March 07, 2024 6:00 AM

It’s a little past 2:30 in the morning as I’m writing this post, and the California Democratic primary, held Tuesday night, only has 50 percent of the total results counted. Isn’t that disconcerting? In the United Kingdom, the general elections, which have 650 parliamentary elections, are all counted that night. Our British cousins know which government will be elected on the same day.

Liberal reporter Michael Tracey posted over 10 hours ago about how this pace was disconcerting, mocking the progressive Left by noting his comments would make him an “election denier.” From roughly 5 PM yesterday to 9:41 PM, The New York Times counted the latest tranche of votes. The primary vote percentage counted from 45 percent to 50 percent in that period. It hasn’t been updated since.

California currently has less than half of the primary vote counted, but remember, you're an "election denier" if you find this disconcerting pic.twitter.com/QVLPHFtiIT

The slow pace is mostly due to the deluge of mail-in ballots, which produced an avalanche of media stories about why California will be dragging its feet in tabulating all the votes. Still, it is a full day, and they barely reach 50 percent as we approach 3 AM here.

These long, torturous periods are breeding grounds for folks wary of rigged elections and voter fraud. Sure, California supposedly has a review system, signature verification, etc., but that hasn't stopped people from making allegations.

Remember, if you find it curious that California, reputedly the world's fourth largest economy, is systematically incapable of counting votes in a timely manner, you're a dangerous insurrectionist and perhaps controlled by Russia pic.twitter.com/3W5YL5443u
