"So, this is the part where I tell you that you have it wrong."
Um. No.
The problem you are having is the law (in which you are correct) and the application of the law (in which I am correct).
California just did that in the Los Angeles Mayoral primary race and the state gubernatorial primaries.
It was done in multiple states in both the 2020 and 2024 presidential election. It's just in the 2024 election we were watching you and we stopped your fraud attempts.
Yes, I understand that you were told to deny, deny, deny especially in the 2020 election but it happened. Deal with it.
There were vans or trucks showing up at polling places AFTER the polls had closed bringing in boxes of fraudulent mail in ballots. They were caught on video. There was video inside the precincts where workers would scan in a batch of ballots and then rescan those same ballots several times.
Here is what AI tells me.
There are only 8 states that do exclusive mail in ballots, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Vermont, Washington and Washington, D.C.. Utah, Colorado, Hawaii, and Vermont ballots must be received when the polls close on Election day. They go by when the ballot has actually been received, not postmarked.
Nevada and Oregon accept ballots by postmark if received the next day. If they are postmarked before the close of polls then they are counted.
Washington, D.C. is the same way but can change final receipt deadline.
And then there is California with the most corrupt state government in the US. California goes by postmark but allows ballots 7 days after polls close to be received.
That is the law anyway but in practice, California will wait until the ballots are collected and counted. If they don't have enough Democrat ballots they will fabricate them and then declare the Democrat to be the winner. That is why California takes so long. They have to figure out how many more ballots they need to keep the Democrats in power. Not all of California is this way. In cities and counties where the majority is Republican then they will have honest elections for the Republicans because those places don't matter. Cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego and Sacramento are always going to be blue, legally or illegally, it does not matter.
Does anyone seriously believe that Mayor Karen "Nero" Bass won the Mayoral primary? She and Newsom purposely let a part of Los Angeles burn down and the people of LA know it.
