## Resource

California’s primary election results are still unfolding as vote counts drag on in key races like governor and LA mayor. With ballots mailed to millions and requiring strict verification—including signature fixes—counting naturally takes time. Despite President’s claims of election rigging and DOJ investigations, Governor Newsom’s office defended the state’s accuracy-first system, acknowledging voters’ last-minute ballot drops tend to favor Democrats. Experts warn delays may extend further, but officials insist precision trumps speed—especially as the outcome in tight races could hinge on just a few hundred votes.
