Paul Ryan questions California's 'bizarre' vote-counting process
"Ballot harvesting" is when a third party collects completed ballots from voters and hands them over to election officials. The practice was legal for the first time in California this year.
The state also allows same-day voter registration, adding to the number of ballots that needed to be verified and counted.
“The way the absentee ballot program used to work and works now, it just seems pretty loosey-goose,” Ryan said. “Point being, when you have candidates that win the absentee ballot vote, win the day of the vote and then lose three weeks later because of provisionals, that’s really bizarre. And so I just think that’s a very, very strange outcome.

This term is too close to organ harvesting to sit well with me, especially when California is tossed into that entrail salad.
Bad news, all around.
