“””And then, miracle of miracle, over the next few days as more and more mail-in ballots kept rolling in,”””
That statement is not quite correct. I have followed the daily vote counting and here are some of the results.
Wednesday evening June 3
460626 ballots counted
322000 estimated remaining
782626 estimated total votes
Monday evening June 8
713325 ballots counted
66000 estimated remaining
779325 estimated total votes
The total votes cast remained pretty much at the 800,000 level for the duration of the counting.
If I open my mail box and find 1000 100 dollar bills but 1/2 of them are counterfit I do not have 100 thousand dollars. I have 50,000 dollars. Which begs they question of good ballots and illegal ballots. The system in California has zero security not because of a flaw in the system but by design of the system.
