It could be quite a long while before we have results in California

It could be quite a long while before we have results in California, both at the presidential level and for congressional primaries. Hear it from state Secretary of State Alex Padilla: “Due to state law, and frankly the sheer size of California, the vote count will continue well beyond election night,” he told reporters, per POLITICO California’s Jeremy B. White. More from Jeremy: “A long California count is not considered a shortcoming by state leaders but a deliberate feature of permissive state rules intended to enfranchise as many people as possible. Ballots mailed by voters on Election Day are still counted as long as they arrive within three days after Election Day. Other rules allow voters to register on Election Day, after which officials need to verify their ballots.”
