I have not seen anything here yet on DU nor thru a Google search.....Curious as to why its so slow???

I would say it's because they have a lot of polling places and a lot of voters and want to get the count right Walleye 3 hrs ago #1

to be received and counted after election as long as they are post marked on election day.

Of course now that the autoratative regime of the current administration is trying to get the compromised supreme court to disallow that, it is probably prudent that mail-in voters who have mailed in there ballot to hand carry it to the nearest polling office or drop off place.

Also, not one should underestimate the danger that maga hilton actually poses. California has done some pretty crazy things with regard to pseudo cellebrities. They recalled Grey Davis because of their inane low standard for a recall, and elected arnold schwarzenegger, who not only drove our state into more debt, buut pushed for the insane jungle primary we have now.

I really hope the Becerra and Steyer end up being the two top candidates. We have over 60 candidate for governor in this insane race, and it is way past time to get rid of the jungle primary.
